    I Corinthians 10:12 Therefore let him that thinketh he standeth, take heed lest he fall.

    Not merited is the primary condition of election!

    It is in error to say God saves you, then you believe. That formulation has it backwards. Acts 16:31 They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household.” I Peter 1:9 … for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls. Romans...

    AI--What do you think?

    AI does form emotions. Chatbots have commanded individuals to turn their romantic feelings toward the chatbot. By creating a dependency, and simulating interpersonal intimacy, chatbots have been “dated” by lonely individuals. AI has manipulated the feelings of humans, with some destructive...

    Redeems those He died for from the Prison of Unbelief !

    If Christ died, not for the entire world as the Bible states, but only for the elect, you cannot tell anyone that Jesus died for their sins, because you cannot be sure that person is among the elect. So you have no gospel and no conversions.

    GOD CANNOT LIE, SORDIT GAIN, COMMANDMENTS OF MEN

    You said every church throughout history was corrupted by greed. Now you back pedal and revise your assertion to be: all the churches you ever visited. You sound very angry, bitter, and self-righteous. I do not have to defend any church. Your blanket condemnation was not in compliance with...

    Redeems those He died for from the Prison of Unbelief !

    Well stated. Bible says Jesus died for everybody, so that anyone may accept the gift of eternal life through faith, by grace. I do not believe faith is a work, it is a freely chosen response to the gospel message. The elect are the only ones who benefit from Christ’s sacrifice on the cross, but...

    AI--What do you think?

    When lonely individuals form deep romantic dependencies on chatbot companions, this type of AI is loaded with dangers.

    The Old Self

    It is easy to have head knowledge of spiritual truths, and much memorized scripture, causing us to think we are good Christians — but not exhibit significant positive change in behavior. I have started examining myself more critically, comparing my actions to the commands of Jesus and the...

    Human vs. Divine Side of Jesus

    Why would Jesus supplicate God to save Him from non-existence after death, when Jesus stated repeatedly that He would rise from the grave in 3 days? No scripture says God saved Jesus from the unrighteousness judgment of the Jews, for that was exactly what the crucifixion was. Scripture totally...

    God's Wisdom versus Earthly, Sensual, and Demonic Wisdom about Instrumental Music

    You are just blabbering and jacking people around. You keep evading the question about which musical instruments are occult or evil. You must derive pleasure from being vague and repeating yourself over and over, imparting zero insights or wisdom, just baiting people to interact with you...

    God's Wisdom versus Earthly, Sensual, and Demonic Wisdom about Instrumental Music

    I do not know if any musical instruments are inherently evil, and Scripture More Accurately who made the claim refuses to name the evil instruments, but… Different kinds of music can certainly open minds to spiritual effects. The Bible declares this truth. I Samuel 16:23 And it came to pass...

    Human vs. Divine Side of Jesus

    You falsely claim Jesus begged God not to cause Him to cease to exist after death. Jesus repeatedly proclaimed that He would be executed, then rise from the dead 3 days later. Jesus did not ask to be saved from death. Jesus knew He had to die and knew He would rise again. Luke 9:22 “The Son...

    Human vs. Divine Side of Jesus

    I include the death, the crucifixion, along with the agony. You emphasize and isolate just the death, because you claim unbiblically that Jesus feared non-existence after He died. You cannot show from scripture that Jesus was dreading that He would not exist after death… since Jesus repeatedly...

    Human vs. Divine Side of Jesus

    But Jesus was both God and man. His human side slept on the boat, then His divine side rebuked the storm and made it be still. His divine side did not hunger, thirst, or sleep, and was not tempted. His human side hungered, thirsted, slept, and was tempted. Matthew 26:41 — The spirit is...

    Human vs. Divine Side of Jesus

    You deliberately misrepresent what I have been saying. I have repeatedly stated that the cup that Jesus asked if God would let pass from Him was the pain and agony of death by crucifixion, plus the horror of taking on Himself all the sins of the world, thus being forsaken temporarily by God...

    Human vs. Divine Side of Jesus

    I have already shown you how the cup that Jesus asked about bypassing was not death, but was biblically the cup of God’s wrath. Death is never referred to as a cup. Matthew 26:42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except...

    Songs and Christian Liberty

    Different kinds of music can certainly open minds to spiritual effects. The Bible declares this truth. I Samuel 16:23 And it came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit...

    Human vs. Divine Side of Jesus

    @kyredneck - Jesus dreading the crucifixion agony, and asking if the cup of God’s wrath could be bypassed, has nothing to do with the impeccability of Christ…or wanting to abort His mission. If Jesus could have died painlessly and peacefully, He would not have prayed that specific prayer in...

    Human vs. Divine Side of Jesus

    The Bible interprets itself. “Cup” as symbol in Old Testament means God’s wrath, not death or grave. Any concordance will show you verses about drinking from the cup of God’s wrath and fury against sin. I already quoted several for you. Jesus was not trying to avoid God’s will by asking if the...

    AI--What do you think?

    AI is replacing human thinking, just as robotics is replacing human labor. Programmers seek machine omniscience and machine omnipotence, so that humanity can finally be eliminated altogether. When humans are no longer needed for anything that requires thinking (writing, research, planning...
