...a couple that comes to mind: Wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me out of the body of this death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then I of myself with the mind, indeed, serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. Ro 7:24-25 For my soul was grieved, And I...

<sigh> What 2 Peter 3:9 says: The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some count slackness; but is longsuffering to you-ward, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. What 2 Peter 3:9 does NOT say: The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as...

"Evangelicals ignoring 'the wrath to come' upon that generation that murdered Christ. It's like a Grand Canyon sized chasm in your theology. You're not just missing a piece of the puzzle, you've tossed half of it out." Peter was apostle to the circumcision, and this was the essence of 'the...

Jn 3:6-8 is only the tip of the iceberg of scripture that the 'anti-Cals' gloss over. Nicodemus's non-enlightenment should not affect the correct rendering of Christ's intent with the word 'anothen' here. Anothen ( from above, from a higher place, of things which come from heaven or God, from...

This... ...is contradictory to this: https://www.baptistboard.com/threads/how-to-be-born-again.135961/

IMO, a prime example of faith by The Son... who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously: 1 Pet 2:23 ...but then again there's this: Or thinkest thou that I cannot beseech my Father, and he shall even now...

I've told JonC that very thing before. He's easy to converse with, whether you agree with him or not.

Synonymous with: Acts Chapter 13 48 And as the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of God: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.

'saved is not the same as born from above' For one thing, the 'heavenly birth' pertains to individuals only, the 'rescue' [saved] includes the households/progeny of the convert. Acts Chapter 16 14 And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple of the city of Thyatira, one that...

It's odd that Christ in Jn 3 didn't tell 'how' one can be born from above, He emphasized the absolute necessity of it. He did tell how it occurs: 7 `Thou mayest not wonder that I said to thee, It behoveth you to be born from above; 8 the Spirit where he willeth doth blow, and his voice thou...

^^^This^^^ is eisegesis.

Exegesis is the careful extraction of a text’s intended meaning, while eisegesis is the imposition of one’s own ideas onto the text.

The two hearts of Romans 2: 5 but after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up for thyself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; 15 in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness therewith, and their...

P.S. Thank you for proving my point, you evangelicals have 'hell on the brain'. You read it into texts willy nilly where it's not intended. 'The righteous judgment of God' means hell? You've GOT to be kidding me. Does this mean hell?: who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he...

The Romans passage is judgement of BOTH hearts, regenerate and unregenerate, it's NOT the second ressurection. 2 Cor passage, I'm all in with @asterisktom, Returning to the Biblical Bema: 2 Cor. 5:10

Doesn't sound like 'believers only' to me: Romans Chapter 2 5 but after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up for thyself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; 6 who will render to every man according to his works: 7 to them that by...

They're made alive, born from above, born of God, born of the Spirit BEFORE conversion, so that they can hear, see, receive, believe and be 'saved' into His kingdom from their vain manner of life. Sheesh, 'regeneration before faith' used to be a 'Calvinist' staple. You didn't get the memo?
