Appointed To Eternal Life?

I have not ignored anything, the truth is in the context, you just reject the truth. Thats what people do when God has not shown them truth.

You have a lot to say when people agree with what you posts.

If your view was correct then you should be able to defend it but your posts show that you can not do that can you.

If your view is correct then prove it via posting your cherry picked verses in context.

Acts of the Apostles 13:48 indicates as many as accepted appointment by mutual agreement with Paul's direction to eternal life. believed.

Recall the use of vague verses by false teachers to pour man-made doctrine into the text? If you translate tasso using the same English word as you translate tithemi, you obliterate the inspired distinction between the two meanings. This opens the door to misunderstanding Acts 13:48 as God unilaterally causing some Gentiles to believe, the Calvinist interpretation. However, if the verse conveyed the idea as many as accepted Paul's direction to eternal life believed, no such Calvinist interpretation would be viable.

Repeating the same line over and over will not change the truth BF. Your view is not supported via contextualized scripture. You have to cherry pick random verses in the attempt to support your philosophy.

Since you will not respond truthfully I will leave you to live in your errant theological bubble.

The fact that you continue to ignore context is what leads you to your errant views.

Since you continue to say I do not know the truth and that you actually get your view from the context then show me how your view agrees with the context

Your post BF

“You have been rejecting truth, you know its not Gods will for everyone to believe the truth, for He sends some men a strong delusion to believe a lie 2 Thess 2:12” Post 231


My response

1Ti 2:1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

1Ti 2:2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

1Ti 2:3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

1Ti 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

1Ti 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

1Ti 2:6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

I included more verses here so you can see the context of vs 3-4

I then proceeded to show your error via the context of 2Th 2:1-15

The salvation Paul is speaking about, in context, is not salvation from hell, but salvation from the tribulation period. That's what the Thessalonians, who were already saved, were worried about.

God's desire is that all be saved and has provided the means {creation, conviction of the Holy Spirit, the gospel message, etc} for mankind to know and trust in Him. But He will not force anyone to trust in Him or force those that have trusted in Him to remain in that trust.

Those that choose to turn away from Him are those that will then be sent the strong delusion, that they will continue to believe the lie.

So again, if you think your view is right then you should be able to defend it via scripture not just your lame protests. But it is doubtful that you will actually try to defend your position.

I agree the truth is in the context, you just reject the truth.

Calvinism and context never go together that is why you cherry pick verses out of context that you think supports your view. That you continue to do this just shows how shallow your theology is.

You rejected what I have shown, duh

You have shown nothing.

You have no even made the attempt to support your view with contextual scripture.

All I have seen from you is blow and bluster.

Try actually supporting your view with scripture.

Come on BF it is now time for you to step up or fold your tent and slink of into the dark.

There are absolute no verses or passages that say or suggest unconditional election of individuals.

Romans Chapter 9

11​

for the children being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth,
