    Reading biblical study books

    Your belief is a man-made fiction, having nothing to do with being chosen for salvation. You have to study God's word, rather than prejudge it.

    Yet another change of subject post - I was personally in Germany (West Germany at that time) and saw the bombed out buildings still in Frankfurt in the 1960's. There was an attempt at Earthy justice, it was called WWII.

    Reading biblical study books

    Please try and answer these questions: 1) Did we save ourselves or did God save us? 2) If you believe, as I do, God saved us, then did we initiate the process or did God initiate the process? 3) If you believe, as I do, that we love God because He first loved us, then did we play any part in...

    Understanding 2 Thessalonians 2:13

    Did this poster say Romans 9:11 indicates those chosen before they had done anything good or bad were chosen for salvation? If so, that is yet another rewrite.

    Government murder

    I am sorry Sir, but I addressed Presidential War Powers used by Mr. Obama, Biden, and Trump. We were talking about illegal drug suppliers waging war by killing thousands of Americans, and you want to talk about medical malpractice? Give me a break...

    The action of government is non-germane to this topic, perhaps this response was intended for another thread?

    Government murder

    Lets say the killing by illegal drugs in America is murder by those who supply these lethal substances. Since the number of deaths runs in the tens or hundreds of thousands each year, that constitutes an act of War which would trigger Presidential War Powers to respond without Congressional...

    Understanding 2 Thessalonians 2:13

    No one was made perfect before they were born anew with the washing of regeneration. No one not made perfect enters heaven, the abode of God who is holy. Those not made holy are separated from God. This is basic Sir. Thus to be set apart in Christ refers to the beginning of the New Covenant...

    Understanding 2 Thessalonians 2:13

    The parade of rewritten scripture continues, from the beginning does not mean "in the beginning" or before the foundation of the world. From the beginning means since the beginning or after the beginning. And the choice of Romans 9:11 was NOT for salvation. But this nonsense gets posted...

    Pastors and Elders & Bishops

    1) The title should be "Elder/Senior Pastor" This puts in on equal footing with the other governing Elders, not above or below. 2) When a new local "church body" is planted (formed) the members should choose Elders (at least 3) to govern the church but reporting to and accountable to the...

    Understanding 2 Thessalonians 2:13

    I did not see where you suggested the Kingdom of Christ was not entered by being transferred into Christ spiritually. Were you not "called" [transferred] out of darkness into His marvelous light? 1 Peter 2:9 Were you not "baptized" [transferred] into Christ spiritually? Romans 6:3 Are you...

    Reading biblical study books

    No, because we cannot be sure where on the spectrum salvation starts without study of God's word, that book. Please try and answer these questions: 1) Did we save ourselves or did God save us? 2) If you believe, as I do, God saved us, then did we initiate the process or did God initiate the...

    Reading biblical study books

    Here we yet another fault finding OP, where something is wrong with the body of Christ. Why not post a proposed solution? I assume folks are referring to the bible as ""that book?" So to restate the problem with clarity, why do folks not study the bible using bible study books, such as bible...

    The sheep and the goats?

    The Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “ALL THE NATIONS WILL BE BLESSED IN YOU.” [Galatians 3:8] Here we see "Nations" used to refer to both Jews and Gentiles, and that justification comes through individual...

    The sheep and the goats?

    In Matthew 25: 31-46 Jesus teaches about the end of the age of grace. He will begin is Millennial reign, sitting on His thrown. Some have read this passage and conclude, mistakenly in my opinion, that Christ's division will be based on works. But I believe "giving to Christ what He needed"...

    Feedback?

    I posted the OP looking for discussion of how we could improve our feedback to one another, to help all of us grow toward unity of belief. Your response was that people do not want feedback that helps them improve their witness. They usually just want confirmation their view is correct. That...

    Understanding 2 Thessalonians 2:13

    1) I presented why "from the beginning" must refer to the beginning of the New Covenant. You provided no feedback, you just repeated your false claim. 2) Yes, we are chosen by God (His Spirit) setting us apart within Christ's spiritual body. 3) The individual choosing did not occur in...

    Feedback?

    Yet another, "Van is unteachable post," devoid of content. The evidence for you being an empty suit is growing by your every post. Scripture requires we work together to try and find common ground, a consensus, a unity of beliefs. Those that say we cannot learn from one another, as Apollos...

    Feedback?

    I believe the T, U, L, and I of the TULIP are false doctrines. And the feedback I receive for explaining my views is "taint so and you are rotten for saying so." If i say Luke 13:24 proves the "T" is false doctrine, I get "taint so" feedback, then non-stop efforts to disparage me.
