    Study 2 Thessalonians 2:13

    Calvinism changes scripture to fit their man-maned doctrines of disgrace. They turn the gospel's opportunity into futility. The Lost can seek God, Luke 13:24. The Lost can understand some of the things of the Spirit of God, spiritual milk. 1 Corinthians 3:1. Those entering the kingdom can be...

    Old Covenant?

    The Old Covenant is NOT the same as the New Covenant in His Blood. The New and Everlasting Covenant promises to make our dead souls alive through the blood of the Lamb.

    Just what is "Truth"

    Yet it was a concern because of the false brothers secretly brought in, who had sneaked in to spy on our freedom which we have in Christ Jesus, in order to enslave us. But we did not yield in subjection to them, even for an hour, so that the truth of the gospel would remain with you. God's...

    Study 2 Thessalonians 2:13

    Good Grief! You simply copy and paste Calvinism, your understanding of scripture is absent. You attack bible study as being secular philosophy, so you offer perversion over truth. Paul is speaking of the beginning of the New covenant in 2 Thessalonians 2:13. That conclusion is dictated by...

    If God is Not Sovereign, Then There is No Grace

    Yet another attempt to deny the very words of God. Here Calvinism ignorantly claims the Master is not Christ. Christ purchased with His own blood the means of reconciliation of the lost. 1 John 2:2. More gibberish, more denial of the obvious. Folks, the issue is Christ purchased and ransomed...

    If God is Not Sovereign, Then There is No Grace

    Yes we have yet another example of Calvinism rewriting God's word, here ignorantly equating "ransom" with "redemption." I kid you not... Christ gave Himself as a ransom for all, 1 Timothy 2:6. The Calvinist even deny that Christ bought those heading for swift destruction, rewriting the text...

    Just what is "Truth"

    What is the truth about John 16:13? Jesus is telling His Apostles they will be indwelt and guided into "all the truth." Many, including myself, believe those enabled to write the New Testament, were inspired, presenting the very words of God. But as a cessionalist, I believe that gift is not...

    Just what is "Truth"

    It appears some do not know our gospel is the gospel of Christ. Not to put too fine a point on it but: Faith in the Truth = Faith in Christ = Faith in our Gospel. What does it mean, Christ is the Truth? Truth has fidelity to the original. Christ is the image of our invisible God. He is...

    If God is Not Sovereign, Then There is No Grace

    God granting or permitting or allowing us to repent is consistent with us taking the action, whether successfully or not. Thus: Acts 5:31 God exulted him at his right hand as Leader and Savior, to grant repentance (not prelude repentance0 to Israel and forgiveness of sins. Note similar...

    If God is Not Sovereign, Then There is No Grace

    God does not give repentance, that is yet another Calvinist fiction, God allows or grants repentance to those He chooses not to harden.

    If God is Not Sovereign, Then There is No Grace

    Once again we have a Calvinist denying Christ "bought" those heading for destruction. The doctrines of disgrace rewrite the entire gospel, turning the good news into bad news.

    Just what is "Truth"

    We know that God chooses individuals for salvation based on "faith in the truth." 2 Thessalonians 2:13. So just what is this "Truth" in which we are supposed to believe? A little study will answer our question. Please consider together, these verses from Paul: 1) Galatians 2:5 2)...

    Old Covenant?

    Yes, of course scripture says every born anew believer has entered, past tense, His rest. See post 25. Ask yourself why you could not find it. Perhaps you need to learn how to study scripture. A simple word search of your Exhaustive Concordance for "rest" would have turned up Hebrews 3:18...

    If God is Not Sovereign, Then There is No Grace

    1 John 2:2 says Jesus is the means of reconciliation for the whole of humanity. 2 Peter 2:1 tells us Jesus bought even those heading for destruction. Thus Christ died to provide the means of reconciliation for "all humanity," as He died as a ransom for all. Every verse rewritten by Calvinism...

    Study 2 Thessalonians 2:13

    No one said you came up with Calvinism, it is a relic of the dark ages. Yes, I change the translation words so as to put God's message into my understanding of the message. Everyone who knows how to study scripture does that. For you to rail against it demonstrates demonic influence. Again...

    Old Covenant?

    Again, you say the first covenant was not sufficient, when it was sufficient for its purpose, to provide a stepping stone to the New Covenant. It did not "take time," God took time, He established the "fullness of time." See Galatians 4:4

    Old Covenant?

    Hopefully we have reached a consensus. The fiction that God made a mistake, is your take, not mine.

    Matthew 26:24

    For the Son of Man must die, as the Scriptures declared long ago. But how terrible it will be for the one who betrays him. It would be far better for that man if he had never been born!” Matthew 26:24 NLT The meaning of an underlying text is not changed by a mangled translation such as "had...

    Old Covenant?

    The first covenant was NOT flawed based on the members, those taken to Abraham's bosom. Everyone of them was subsequently taken to heaven. The flaw was the first covenant did not make the flawed members perfect, but the second one did.

    Old Covenant?

    No, the fault in the first covenant was that it did not make those covered perfect. That is why we now have the Everlasting New Covenant providing eternal security.
