And you are espousing a saving faith that is not in Christ, but the blood of animals. This is why I loathe dispensationalism so much. It fractures much of God's holy writ.

The sacrificial system in the OT saved nary a soul my friend. They had faith in the coming Messiah, and that was what saved them. Not faith in the blood of an animal.

I don't think faith in the blood of an animal or any other human other than Christ can save anyone. "What can take away my sins? Nothing but the blood of Jesus."

I would say that God did not delight in these offerings...in fact, that is what His word says...yet it was He who told Moses on Mount Sinai what each sacrifice needed to contain in regards to what animals were to be slaughtered for the sacrifice, and that they were to be without spot or blemish...

In Genesis 12, we find Abram, living in Canaan [Haran] doing great things for the Lord. Wait, no he wasn’t. In fact, he was an idol worshiper, as Joshua 24:2 alludes to. Here was this idol worshiper who God came to, took him from everything he knew, and made him a father of many...

Let’s move a little forward to Genesis 6. The world was evil and their thoughts were continually evil. Yet, Noah found favor…grace…in the eyes of the Lord. Grace is unmerited favor (we both agree here I’m sure) and for Noah to have found this in the eyes of the Lord, shows that Noah was not this...

I will probably have to make a few posts, so that a TLDR doesnt take place. We see the first prophecy in the Bible in Genesis 3:15 “And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel.”...

Its sad that many who Christ died for, who paid their sin debt in full, died eternally lost, even when their sins have been paid for. Its sad that many thwart God's will and die eternally lost, who God tried to save, but they thwarted His will, and overrode it. So much for an omnipotent God. Man...

You aren't as slick as you think you are my friend. When I get time, I will go through this to prove we are right in regards to election and predestination.

Absolutely, but that does not mean every single one of them were elect. Again, not all of Israel is Israel.

No, not all were saved. God used them to fulfill His plan. Not all of Israel is Israel.

Again, this shows that when God elects ppl, He does not do it based upon whom they are and what they do, or will do later down the road. That is election. It is you who absolutely fails to understand election.

But He chose them based upon nothing within them. The others nation He left without a covenant, without priests and prophets to intercede for them, not sacrificial system. So, you are correct; that was a strike, that I hammered over 500 feet for a home run.

I almost forgot to address this as we are posting posts whippet quick. Please forgive me for not addressing this sooner. Then the LORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? If you do well, will not your countenance be lifted up? And if you do not do well, sin is...

And God didn’t choose them based on who they are or what they will do. He chose them in accordance to His will. Look at Deuteronomy 7:7-8 for instance: “The LORD did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any of the peoples, for you were the fewest of all...

He’s not absconding from any responsibility, but saying that salvation come solely from God, and done by God. Not that we aren’t to witness to the lost. But that we can in no way, do anything to save ourselves.

If I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard, or read, 2 Timothy 3:9 out of context, I’d be fairly well off. Let’s examine the first nine vss, not just vs nine: This is now, beloved, the second letter I am writing to you in which I am stirring up your sincere mind by way of reminder, that you...

That only works if the bus was elected from before the foundation of the world.
