Let’s review. The OP began with the statement that it is a “widely held belief… the message doesn’t matter…..” You were asked who exactly holds that belief? The very foundation of this thread is based on the falsehood that is a widely held belief. Now, if you want to have a serious...

We know are saved because God Holy Spirit, Who indwells us, testifies with our spirit that we are children of God. How incredibly sad so many are deceived into believing they cannot know for certain, and through fear they are manipulated into fruitless rituals and false prayers to “saints” that...

Every thread started (and there have been numerous) with the expressed purpose of disproving the doctrines of grace (rather than having an intellectual, biblical discussion of the merits of any particular belief)…. is a waste of time… …and, as I like to say, a waste of cyber space. Peace to you

Never take advice on understanding biblical Greek from someone who states they don’t understand biblical Greek. Peace to you

Jesus IS God incarnate Peace to you

The “whoever” believes in John 3:16 has just been qualified in the preceding verses. The Wind (Spirit) blows where it wills (an active decision on the part of God Holy Spirit) so is everyone born of the Spirit. This is a repeating theme in John. In John 1, one we find those that are the...

Yet another pity party declaration of, oh woe is me, the mean Calvinists are picking on me. I just pointed out your statement that’s “widely held belief” is the message doesn’t matter is strawman cowpie and that truth doesn’t change just because you are not capable of understanding what the...

This is very well communicated, biblically sound response to the distortion presented as Reformed belief. This OP is a great illustration of “straw man” attacks common with the poster. He continuously makes outrageous claims about what others believe concerning the doctrines of grace and...

It’s not going to amount to anything. Peace to you

That is interesting. It may be a U.S. thing. There was a big push among churches (80 years ago?) to incorporate, so members could avoid personal lawsuits, liability, should a church be sued. Here in Missouri, about 30 years ago, the Missouri Baptist convention (Southern Baptist) began a long...

No. Paul stated it was better to be defrauded than to bring church matters before a secular authority. A big problem, I think, is most churches “incorporate” as a way of avoiding personal lawsuits. When a church incorporates, they are stating they are a corporation of the state and subject to...

I do understand the general summary of dispensationalism. I simply disagree. In Matthew 24-25, Jesus states there will be a tribulation that has never been seen before or will be seen again. That can only refer to the “great tribulation” He then then says “after” that tribulation, He will...

Well, no. The “nations” referred to people, not geography. That God “set bounds” doesn’t change that fact. Modern language equates “nations” with geography. That’s not how scripture defines “nations”. Peace to you

Your welcome Peace to you

The throne of God, which Jesus will sit upon is in heaven. The 12 thrones of the Israelites are in heaven (actually it is 24 thrones per Revelation) all of which are in heaven (if you believe they are literal thrones rather than symbolic) The word “nation” refers to a designated people, NOT a...

You’re on a roll Ky Peace to you
