1) The Greek word translated by your translation version is "pas" and the KJV translates it as "everyone" 28 times. Either you do not know what you are talking about, or you are deliberately posting falsehood. 2) The classification criteria of "pas" is everyone who believes into Him. The...

1) Still addressing your views about me, and hiding from any defense of your mistaken views. 2) One of the constant requirements of the mistaken view is to claim it is not what it is. However, not of these constant dodges ever get around to stating what it is. :) 3) Yet another...

Jesus was God incarnate!, the uniquely divine Son of God. Christians should stick with what they first believed in, "for God so loved the world (all of mankind) that He gave His uniquely divine Son so that whoever (and God has not foreordained who can believe) believes into Him shall not perish...

Our third Greek word, "Hytron" is also a noun, G3083, but is used only to refer to the ransom and does not convey the idea of resulting in the release. Both in Matthew 20:28 and in Mark 10:45 the word is used to refer to the ransom payment, Christ giving His physical life as a ransom for many...

Now let us look at the verb, "Hytroo" (G3084) and is used to indicate the action of payment of a ransom, or the action of obtaining release by payment of a ransom. In Luke 24:21 the word is used to obtain the release or deliverance of Israel. In Titus 2:14 again the idea is to redeem as the...

Yet another ad homenim post, addressing none of the OP content, but full of false claims concerning the poster. This is all those copy and pasting centuries old arguments can offer, as scripture clearly precludes their false doctrines. Many seek God at one time or another, the none ever seek...

This morning I listened, on the radio, to the late John Mac Arthur on the meaning of redemption. I hold a differing view. Like many other confused NT concepts, the confusion arises from the translation, or mistranslation of a Greek word with two related meanings. For example, in Luke 1:68...

1) It does not matter if you are unaware of those who claim people are compelled to believe, no matter the message. It is a valid statement. 2) We agree, the message of the gospel must not be "another gospel" that prevents those seeking entry into the kingdom from going in. 3) Yes, if a...

2 Thessalonians 2:13-14 describes our actual individual election for salvation during our lifetime when God credits our "faith in the truth" and sanctifies us by transferring us out of the realm of darkness and into Christ, Colossians 1:13. Thus we once, before our election were children of...

Have you ever seen someone claim our righteousness is imputed. That of course is the vague phraseology pushing false doctrine. God declares or credits our faith in Christ as righteousness, and so our faith has "imputed" righteousness. But does that cause us to be the righteousness of God...

Jesus Christ is the place of reconciliation, if you have been placed into Christ, you have been reconciled. If not, you are a condemned sinner heading for swift destruction. Jesus Christ is the means of reconciliation, if you have not received the reconciliation, you are a condemned sinner...

Why do some Bible Study threads seem to focus not on understanding specific scripture, but rather on the conjecture of people? The issue, at least initially seemed to be conjecture about God's purpose, other than His stated purpose, in creating the planets and moons of our solar system. But...

Propitiation is an English word used to translated two different Greek words in the NASB. The Greek words refer to the place of reconciliation, which of course is spiritually within Christ, and the means of reconciliation, which of course was provided by Christ's substitutionary death on the cross.

They seem to say the message does not matter, but scripture is clear, we are to present the pure gospel of Christ. They are doubling down on the false doctrine that false teachers and false teaching do not matter. But if the message is not key, why is it that people entering the kingdom were...

Once again we see a change the subject post. Did I not say Jesus Christ saves? Yes of course I did. Christians should stick with what they first believed in, "for God so loved the world (all of mankind) that He gave His uniquely divine Son so that whoever (and God has not foreordained who can...

LOL, did I even address whether or not those holding and advocating false doctrines care about false teaching? Nope - so a strawman hoisted to change the subject. So typical of those unwilling or unable to defend their doctrines which are obviously false.

Ad homenim response, demonstrating biblical illiteracy. Nothing was actually addressed, let alone rebutted. But the ol "reverse the charges" ploy of false teachers is evident, where I am charged with their malfeasance. Go figure.

According to at least one widely held Christian view, it does not matter whether the gospel is presented accurately or not, no human being is able to respond to it appropriately anyway; as everyone in their natural fallen state suffers from total spiritual inability. Then, again according to...

Some folks explain being chosen in Him as meaning we were chosen as specific foreseen individuals in anticipation of the salvation that would be available “in Him.” This seems to me to be an unnatural reading of the text. Rather the phrase “in Him” seems to me to describe how we were chosen...

1 Peter 2:9 indicates born anew believers are a chosen people. Some seem to think this refers to God's corporate election of the descendants (seed) of Abraham, i.e. the nation of Israel. However Paul makes clear, when viewed through the lens of the New Covenant, not all the descendants are...
