The Bible is afforded to everyone because God is impartial.
The natural man (1 Cor 2:14) cannot discern the spiritual things that are contained in the bible, and thinks them to be foolishness. What good would a bible do for him, as a matter of fact, it does not do any good to try to teach, or preach to him, if he cannot understand the things of the Spirit. The natural man becomes a spiritual man when God quickens him, while he is yet spiritually dead, to a new life, with the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Eph 2

You say you CAN read the Bible but by your show of Biblical ignorance you don’t take advantage of the opportunity to do so. On another note, I encourage you to attend worship services. Fellowship is rewarding.
See....at the end of the day they have no scriptures, no legs, and nothing but accusations like the workers for or salvation losers accuse of greasy grace or a live as we chose argument......

I really could care less what you think....he was speaking to his apostles and chosing them.....and your view of my knowledge = less than nothing....a man that skews context, changes word definitions, denies truth and refuses to be open to the actual truth has no impact with their view of what I believe.
Nice explanation of the scriptures. Wait! What scriptures. Just more derogatory remarks.

Chose you this DAY whom you will serve.

Man has Choice pal.

God would have ALL MEN BE SAVED and come to the knowledge of the truth.

ALL does not = The hyper religionist Calvinist.....

It means ALL MEN!

For God so loved the KOSMOS....

Kosmos does not equal the hyper religionists Calvinists, but rather the WHOLE ORDER OF THINGS.

CREATION AND THE INVISIBLE TESTIFY TO ALL MEN so they are without EXCUSE......NOT just the Calvinistic hyper religionists

Now do you really thinks that points an evolutionist to the creator. come on! You can't be that shallow, or maybe you can.

Who are without excuse? Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ. Of course you do not believe the scriptures teach the total depravity of man's nature that carries over in his new spiritual life, as Paul explains in Romans, chapter seven.

Your downfall is that you have not checked the Greek meaning of the words, "salvation" "saved" "save", which means "a deliverance" "delivered" "deliver". We are delivered eternally. and we are delivered many times as we sojourn here in this world, which has nothing to do with our eternal inheritance.

1 Tim 2:4; There is a deliverance (salvation) here in this world, when born again babes in Christ come unto a knowledge of the truth.

The reason your false doctrine leads you to believe that you have to take some action to gain eternal deliverance, is because you bag all of the salvation scriptures into a "eternal salvation" bag.

You call me a Calvinist, among other derogatory remarks, but I believe that the scriptures teach that God does give mankind a choice in how he wants to live his life here on earth, but God delivers a man eternally by his sovereign grace, without the help, or consent of man. Mankind has, by his own choice, chosen not to seek God, Ps 53:2

AS a general rule, most all of the bible is directed to God's regenerated people, and is given for the purpose of giving them instructions on how he wants them to live their lives as they sojourn here in this world. Some scriptures are God speaking about the actions of the world that hates him, but they are still directed to his disciples. for their learning.
Well said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I remember hearing a pastor down in Texas once that stated it like this: If you can't see that the Bible is teaching that Salvation is all of God and not the will of man, until God makes a man willing; it is because you are reading someone else's mail. It was not addressed to you.

I have never forgotten those words. He hit the nail right on the head. He has since gone on to the Lord. He is missed.

That's because those who hold to the idea of "free will" neither understand the true meaning of "FREE" nor do they understand "DEPRAVITY" The Biblical meaning of "depravity" is this: The spiritual inability of man to possess discernment of spiritual things because man died in trespasses and sins, in Adam, when he fell. Thus, we all died physically, ( that is, no one will escape physical death. For we must all put off this tent of flesh.) and spiritually.

Only God can jump start a dead spiritual battery.

We have Abraham as our Father.......and I know you get the implication.....this Calvinistic group is a modern version.....end of story!
You really, as they would say today, "need to cool your jets" There is no reason to walk so unworthily before the Lord, with such brash comments. Take it from a young man in Christ, of 33+ years, approach all subjects with a calm and reasonable demeanor. As much as lies in you.

Post 4005 is most worthy of a rebuttal but your inability to do so successfully has your spiritual impotence on full display.

Real Christian's have always believed these truths.Why you think
they are elite is your imagination I suppose.

He did not say they had an excuse, he says they cannot understand spiritual things.🤯🤯
Evidently similar to you,seems as if there is a complete inability.
