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?

It's unbecoming of the great John of Japan of the Baptistboard to resort to this sort of dishonesty. True or false?: 2nd Corinthians Chapter 5 10 For we must all be made manifest before the judgment-seat of Christ; that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he...

I know of no one of the Sovereign Grace persuasion that opposes reaching the lost. Perhaps your info comes from their enemies? Question for you: Why do hyper-evangelicals unabashedly place the burden of other’s eternal destiny on the backs of the saints when they’ve nothing to do with their...

John Chapter 16 2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the hour cometh, that whosoever killeth you shall think that he offereth service unto God. Galatians Chapter 1 15 ...when it was the good pleasure of God... 16 ...to reveal his Son in me... John Chapter 10 3...

Yea, judged according to their works, NOT whether or not they had heard the gospel. 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...

'Saved' from what? Eternity in torment? 16 But they did not all hearken to the glad tidings. For Isaiah saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? 17 So belief cometh of hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. 18 But I say, Did they not hear? Yea, verily, Their sound went out...

Salvation [deliverance] from what? Infinity in torment? I'm not. You are, but I'm not. I'm talking about rightly dividing the word.
