Jesus literally while dying on the cross stated... Father forgive them they know not what they do.
It’s difficult for calvinists to look at Christ while embracing their godless vanity, which happens to be all the time.

To all out there who are not yet saved; you CAN come to Jesus. You are not predestined to go into the Pit. Just surrender your all to Him today.

Good night everybody.:sleep:

One of the disadvantages of the IGNORE feature. ;)

I don't use it.

I rather exercise power over my flesh to resist inflammatory posts and ignore them with my free will to do so. :)
Some people just lose the right to be fed.

"Everywhere in the Bible, it talks about God loving us, it is referring to the redeemed, those who have some into the family of God, not a general statement towards the unsaved person."

God is love and not capable of hate. He even love the unsaved but because they are out of covenant they cannot enter relationship with the King. It is our choice.

No predestination.

Coming to the knowledge of the Truth (Jesus Christ’s death for sin debt, and resurrection) does not equate to Salvation.

That was the dude’s in Hebrews 10 giant error. They had the knowledge but not the Truth (Jesus).
Yeah....I disagree...the context of the verse is salvation....end of story!

Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

AND is clear, the knowledge of the truth is tied directly to salvation and this verse refutes one of the false tenants of calvinism!

Knowledge is not salvation it leads to it.

But many crucify Christ over and over. Having tasted of the knowledge experrnced it working and walked away. Like the disciples in John (no faith). The evil generation that seeks after a self edifying sign .

Hebrew6:4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.


Better things accompany salvation. like God promises us He will not forget the good works we offer toward his name . No self edification needed . we continue to walk by faith

Hebrew6:9-11 But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak. For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:
