Should the forum name be changed?

Discussing Election is a good pick.

Soteriology, perhaps?

Discussing Salvation?

 

Soteriology would be best I think since that was what this centeres arround.

 

Soteriology or Discussing Election are both good.

 

How about . . .

"I'm Right/No I'm Right"

 

Or "I'm Right...deal with it!"

 

Soteriology is a good choice, but not all will know what it means. Many will start debates on candidates if its entitled "Discussing Election" herbologists will flock here if its called "TULIP". I would suggest Doctrines of Grace (as Whetstone suggested) Doctrine of Election, or Doctrine of Salvation.

 

Soteriology doesn't appear to be over the heads of the debaters. Most of them are HEAVILY immersed in theological terms.

 

Jesus did not come to bring peace in the way we normally think of the word. I know this is true because the Bible says so.

In Matthew 10:34-36, Jesus said:

“Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and a man's foes shall be they of his own household.”

Again in Luke 12:49-53, the Lord said:

“I came to send fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am till it is accomplished!

Do you suppose that I came to give peace on earth? I tell you, not at all, but rather division. For from now on five in one house will be divided: three against two, and two against three.

Father will be divided against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

I say it is very healthy to hash it out and contend for the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help us God!

I want to make it very clear to everybody......

I value the right of everybody to have their own convictions.

That does not mean I have to value the convictions that everybody has!

It also does not mean I hate people because just because I do not agree with them.

I have my own convictions and God has made me very stubborn in them.

God bless you all! KJB

 

The Sovereignty of God in Salvation

 

Come on, OldRegular, isn't that a bit biased?

 

Oldregular,

But that topic is already stated as truth in the name of the topic! LOL

Blessings! KJB

 

Come on, OldRegular, isn't that a bit biased? </font>[/QUOTE]Isn't that what the issue really comes down to: Who is Sovereign in Salvation, God or man?

 

How about:

I'm right/you're a heretic

 

I vote for just plain "Soteriology".

Let it cover all aspects of salvation discussion, not exclusively C/A debate.

Yes that is it in a nutshell!......Either God is sovereign or He is not. If He has no control over one tiny aspect of creation.....no matter if it is an ant....or the will of one mere man.....He is not sovereign.

here now......LOL....good one!
