Yes, Mr. Trump's stated method of getting into heaven, was discouraging to me as well. Once saved, then yes our good deeds, like trying to stop of loss of life in the war, might merit some reward, but until God chooses or has chosen to transfer Mr Trump spiritually into Christ, all Mr. Trump's...

1) I said our righteousness arises from God crediting our faith and on that basis, transferring us into Christ spiritually. That is how we become spiritually "in Christ." 2) Once in Christ, spiritually within Christ, we undergo the washing of regeneration, which justifies us and thus made...

Yet another deflection, addressing me and not the correct presentation of the word of God. 1) The people rejecting Christ were not My sheep who are already saved, but were sheep without a shepherd. The unstudied claim everyone at conception is already a goat or a sheep is pure malarkey...

The above claims are complete baloney, totally made up, invented claims, found no where in scripture. 1) The people rejecting Christ were not My sheep, but were sheep without a shepherd. The unstudied claim everyone at conception is already a goat or a sheep is pure malarkey. People are...

Re-posted to edit an error, "of the faith" should read "in the faith." The Saints perseverance is because of God's preservation. So as we examine our lives, to see if we are "in the faith" we will find our efforts to follow Christ on His paths of righteousness. But what if we do not? Then we...

I see we are on page 5 in discussing whether it is ok to use the NKJV. I believe we should not use any English translation to the exclusion of other English translations. But I do have a primary study bible, now the NASB, but when engaging in study of any particular verse, I compare the NASB...

Sorry, but you need to start a new thread to address this issue. We are talking about the "P" of the TULIP

One last post on the "P" of the TULIP. The Saints perseverance is because of God's preservation. So as we examine our lives, to see if we are "of the faith" we will find our efforts to follow Christ on His paths of righteousness. But what if we do not? Then we should question our salvation...

John 3:18 “The one who believes into Him is not judged; the one who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed into the name of the uniquely divine Son of God. What aspects of Christ's attributes are in view here? As Lord and Savior! If...

The above claims are complete baloney, totally made up, invented claims, found no where in scripture. 1) The people rejecting Christ were not My sheep, but were sheep without a shepherd. The unstudied claim everyone at conception is already a goat or a sheep is pure malarkey. People are...

Well Sir, we can agree, we do not need the "P" of the TULIP to tell us "Once Saved, Always Saved."

I did not see a response to my question, but instead a change of subject. This sort of behavior is consistent with partisans, unwilling to actually examine their understanding of scripture.

Ever wonder why the same false claims are made over and over, but never once do the false claimers address the rebuttal scripture. Lets take the false claim about a person who is dead in their sin. Calvinism falsely claims they are unable to seek God or trust in Christ because they are dead...

Since the final authority says the local churches are to be lead by a plurality of Elder, the various staff members are under their authority, including the Senior Pastor. Scripture says obey your leaders, so a plurality of leaders would overrule any one of them.

On and on, now misrepresenting "of My sheep" as it it did not point to the fields white for harvest, is the bogus claim.

Yet another bogus off topic post addressing me. No one is regenerated until they are transferred into Christ, thus they are made alive (regenerated) together with Christ, Ephesians 2:5. I have gone over this point many times, but not one Calvinist even addresses this truth.

I have no idea what you are going on about. The meaning of faith is not at issue. Faith, if credited by God becomes saving faith. Please address that issue. To Repeat: Thus the distinctive between the human action to believe in something fully or partially, and the Romans 5:1 action arising...

Yes of course you did not make up the Perseverance of the Saints view held by many Calvinist. I was unset because you did not address my view presented in my post. Many posters misrepresent the biblical views I present, so I reacted harshly because you seemed to be doing the same thing. Here...

See post 15 in this thread. Calvinism false claims that lost people (natural unregenerate people) cannot understand any of the things of the Spirit of God, but that reads into 1 Corinthians 2:14 more than what it says. The things could mean all the things, or could mean some of the things...

On and on, falsehood after falsehood, non-germane verse after non-germane verse. Does the passage say when the person gets a new spirit within them? Nope. But scripture says we are sealed in Christ, thus after God has transferred the person spiritually into Christ based on crediting their...
