Does faith, once credited by God as righteousness, prevent us from "snatching at the bait?" Nope, we all stumble and stray from the path, Our salvation prevents us from the consequence (God's wrath) of our errant steps. The question is: Are we like the babes in Christ of 1 Corinthians 3:1...

The issue is not that God is all-powerful and does as He pleases. He is and He does! The issue is that it pleased God not to cause everything, but rather to allow some things to happen by chance, and to allow humans to make autonomous choices to sin and to trust fully in Christ or not! That...

It bothers me that the "manifestos" of these shooters are immediately taken down and no one in the media is either willing or able to publish them so the voters could see just what these shooters claimed to be thinking. The Trump shooter for example.

Yet another thread on the doctrine of denial of the opportunity to be saved by God, based on God crediting the lost person's faith as righteousness. Do not let these false doctrines prevent you from obtaining the opportunity for salvation.

Now this poster denies that Esau and Jacob were chosen to father two nations and were chosen so the older would serve the younger, and were not chosen for salvation because they were not chosen through faith. Basically any passage that conflicts with his man-made doctrine does not mean what it...

Every poster who falsely claimed scripture does not teach some things happen by chance and other things happen because God caused or predestined them has also failed to acknowledge their error. Absolute Sovereignty, where God causes or predestines everything is false doctrine, God's sovereignty...

More nonsense, more misdirection. Did anyone say Esau and Jacob, chosen while in the womb, were chosen because of their will? No, but this poster blathers on. They were chosen conditionally, so the older would serve the younger and were not chosen for salvation through faith in the truth...

On and on, as if God only chooses people for salvation and not for another purpose, such as schooling Judas as the betrayer. Everyone knows Jacob and Esua were not chosen for salvation because they were not chosen through faith in the truth, 2 Thessalonians 2:13.

When someone claims the "context" rewrites the meaning of a verse, they are just using a meaningless word to justify nullifying the verse. Nearly all of the "context, context, context claimers do not seem to even know how to study a passage and determine the immediate context. One poster...

In Deuteronomy 22:6 we see "“If you happen to come upon a bird’s nest along the way...." NASB In 1 Samuel 6:9 we see "...it happened to us by chance.” NASB In 2 Samuel 1:6 we see "By chance I happened to be on Mount Gilboa...." NASB The Hebrew word "qara" H7122 is sometimes translated as...

On and on, denial of truth is the Calvinist game, and nullification of truth is the outcome. "God chose Jacob (whom He later renamed “Israel”) to be the father of His chosen people, the Israelites. God rejected Esau (who was also called “Edom”) and did not choose him to be the father of His...

Certainly the New Covenant is hidden in the Old Covenant, but the relevant truths of the Old Covenant are revealed clearly in the New Covenant. The timeless meaning of the bronze serpent (See Numbers 21:9) is presented by the Gospel of Christ in the New Covenant. Not the other way around. The...

Complete fiction, an assertion with absolutely no support in scripture. Folks, they just make it up and spew it out. "God chose Jacob (whom He later renamed “Israel”) to be the father of His chosen people, the Israelites. God rejected Esau (who was also called “Edom”) and did not choose him...

Everyone knows the election of Romans 9:11 was not for salvation. And it IS conditional, God chose the older to serve the younger!

Hebrews 11:7 NET By faith Noah, when he was warned about things not yet seen, with reverent regard constructed an ark for the deliverance of his family. Through faith he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith. This translation...

Yes, God makes plans, and no plan of God can be thwarted. God planned before creation that His Lamb of God would sacrifice His life to provide the means of reconciliation for fallen humanity. This plan was known before Adam had sinned in the garden! God's redemption plan established before...

Sadly, sometimes the lyrics of songs present demonic falsehoods. But they can be reborn according to God's grace: 1. Amazing love! transcendent grace! Redemption's scheme displays; In God's conditionally chosen race, To His eternal praise. 2. His sons, by Him, were all foreknown, As...

What drivel, the gift of faith via irresistible grace is a complete fiction with no support in scripture. Next, the Calvinists, whether they deny it or not, claim if God uses the lost person's faith, that is a works based salvation. Scripture says God credits the faith of those that believe the...

You can make your false charges concerning my character till the cows come home, it will not change one word of Paul's teaching concerning evaluating ourselves.

Now this poster claims Paul's inspired text is mistaken, as new Christians cannot, according to this poster, evaluate themselves to see if they are "in the faith. I kid you now. This is totally off topic and complete gibberish.
