2 Peter 2:1-2 (KJV)
[SUP]1 [/SUP]But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. [SUP]2 [/SUP]And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
This whole idea is taken from Deute 32 which includes the phrase, Is not He your Father Who has bought you.

'Lord' is not kurios but despotes. It refers to His purchase of Israel both saved ad unsaved at the red sea.

:haha: perhaps he talk to those false prophets to admit
their wrong doings
so that they may
tell the truth unto all about this verses
as it written
:read:
1 Tesalonica: 2. 15. Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:
16. Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.

This is unproven. More likely of Jesus, who bought them with His own blood.

Actually despotes always refers to God in the NT, not the Lord Jesus. Jude uses if of God in Jude 4. You only want it to mean Jesus to serve your false doctrine.

It is PROVED to the satisfaction of scholars that he had in mind Deut 32.

I think p_rehbein needs new glasses or something is VERY wrong with him!

In post #343 TonyJay is quoting p_rehbein saying "no arguments there". But p_rehbein is quoting #347 by PaulMack and saying to TonyJay this is confusing!

Of course its confusing to you p_rehbein!!!!

I believe p_rehbein is just arguing for the sake of arguing!
In spite of the Christian spirit of love and fellowship you display, the truth is, to my embarrassment, I mistook the post by PaulMack to be one by TonyJay. Not being perfect, and given my current medical situation, and how hard I struggle to keep my thoughts from fracturing long enough to comment here, I do not know what it is like (as you surely must) to have never mixed up posts/posters, or made a mistake.

To TonyJay: I apologize for the mixup, and for wrongly thinking it was your post.

As for KenAllan, mayhaps you should learn a little more about people here. Had you taken the time to do so, you would know how miserably wrong you are about that. There are those here you could ask............but, then, it seems your mind is made up.

Have a great day

If your condition is so bad that you cannot even think then you have no right here to post reply's to begin with.

If i were you I would not post if my med's make it hard for me to understand what i am posting.

How was Ken wrong? Why blame Ken for your lack of judgement with your med's?

I believe the reason we have so many problems trying to explain Scriptures to others is probably because they are high on drugs.

Too many false christians, which the Scriptures calls Tares and false prophets, love to have the light shine on them. Its those who grab the Limelight to highlight how by their own works and efforts they have received and maintain their Salvation by their Works.

This this why they are against once saved always saved Theology.

OSAS puts the Limelight on God. Where as working for their Salvation puts the Limelight on them!

Talk about a cheap shot............and soooooooo very Christian of you.........

I sincerely hope and pray that you NEVER find yourself struck down with Neuralgia Induced Pain, and the debilitating effects of having a severely adverse reaction to a serum. I assure you, I would not wish such on anyone.......even you.

This may well be the most unChristian insult I have ever read here on CC.

My judgement or my lack of understanding of Scripture is not effected, thanks for your loving and Christian concern. What is effected (at times) is my loss of my train of thought.

As for not having a right to post here, given the unChristian way you have responded to me, and that this is first and foremost a Christian Site......how exactly are you qualified to be posting here.

As for my intellectual ability to converse and debate others, I assure you that I am so very far ahead of you that were I in a coma, I would STILL surpass you with ease.

The effects come and go. And, with effort and focus, I can do quite well thank you.

Any tine you believe yourself capable of serious and respectful debate, just start the thread........I have no problem opening up a giant sized can of Alabama Kick Butt on you.

It's interesting that you mentioned drugs. In Revelation 9:21, we read - and they did not repent of their murders nor of their sorceries nor of their immorality nor of their thefts. The Greek word for "sorceries" is - pharmakeía Strong's #5331 (from pharmakeuō, "administer drugs") – properly, drug-related sorcery, like the practice of magical-arts, etc. (A. T. Robertson).

Apparently this Henderson dude, one of your "fellow Christian love and fellowship brethren" believes you were correct in stating that I was only arguing for the sake of arguing.

The reason your condemnation was so very miserably false is had you actually read ALL of the comments here, you would have SEEN that BOTH Grace and MailmanDan responded to my comments in an attempt to engage me in discussion/debate/argument........I PASSED on both.

Hardly what one would expect from someone who is ONLY ARGUING FOR THE SAKE OF ARGUING is it?

The three of you should form a "club." You, this Henderson guy and that PaulMack guy........Hmm, what would be a good name? Hmm...........

Maybe?

The Three Not So Christian Amigos?

I mean, given the level of Christian love and fellowship the three of you display here..........it kinda has a nice ring to it. Kinda like the ring of "sounding brass."

Tares are anything of the flesh (including OUR flesh). False prophets are people who don't understand the truth. There's spiritual babes and there's mature Christians. Even so, the playing field is level because Jesus said we're one body.

No doubt there are some who love to make a show of themselves and like to feel important, just like some children do. But I hardly think you can slap a "self-righteous" label on someone just because they don't see eye to eye with OSAS. Only God gives us spiritual insight about his truth, so none of us can take credit for what he reveals to us. We have to trust him for ourselves and for one another, don't you agree? Share the truth, encourage one another, treat each other the way we want to be treated, love one another in the spirit of Christ.

We all need each other. Sometimes we plant seeds, sometimes we water, but God gives the increase (makes us grow).
