What mans religion teaches about faith and repentance !

BF read the context. The light shines into the heart of those that have believed. The light of Jesus shines in all the world John 1:9, then by your view all people should be saved, universalism. But that is not what we see is it.

The reason Paul served the church and proclaimed the gospel was because of God’s work in his life. Much as in creating the world God acted to bring light out of darkness Genesis 1:2-4, so in spiritual creation He brings light to the hearts of those in darkness. Acts of the Apostles 26:18. The light in believers’ lives is the knowledge of God’s salvation. When people were in the darkness of sin, they had no knowledge of God, no experience of His life and salvation. Ephesians 4:18 BKC

Lol, I read the context 100s of time, that's how I came across the verse duh. Whenever you want to reject something clearly taught in scripture, you appeal to context, how convenient .

I do because context shows that your view is wrong. Duh

Sorry BF but what scripture that you post does not, in context, support you religion.

You pull various verses together to prove your point but when read in context they do not do so.

You are doing the same thing that the cults do and with the same result.

I think it is helpful how you make such posts with plenty of references that a person can search out! Thanks for your post.

Praise The Lord! Good deal. I really enjoy being here as part of my Ministry.

I want people to be able to have stuff and take it and WORSHIP GOD!!!

Pretty wild, but it is what it is.

ALL, again, with the Hope of having us Worship God in the ways He says are Acceptable to Him.

About 1 out of 1,000 posts, I receive some indication of my having been bearing some fruit,
even in just appreciation of some kind like you posted, so thank you, again.

Certainly, I am apparently driven by something other than positive feedback!).

Not many care to read more than a bumper sticker or a meme. The truths you share come from men who spent their lives pouring over scripture unlike the day you find yourself in. But God has you here to plant seed for those who read your offerings.
Gal.6:9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith
