So God threw a temper tantrum and killed the Egyptians? I never knew this :)
Oh, by no means. According to you, God does not hate. He loves only. So, I am asking you to teach me how what he did to the Egyptians is an act of his love.

Wow! That certainly sounds no good, never heard of that before... and some people believe in this?
Haven't found anyone on this site that agrees with it yet, but some seem to be pushing towards it.

Then why do a lot of people die without salvation? If Christ had died for them they surely would be saved, Christ's death wasn't to make salvation posssible for all of mankind as you'd have us believe, it was to effectively save those the Father before the foundation of the world had elected to be His people, and I think you'll find this is the biblical perspective.

No,Im sorry,that is not what the Bible teaches.

People have a choice. Just because Christ died for all doesn't mean everyone is saved. God wont force people to accept him. The father provided us a way to be saved through his son. What you are basically saying is some people are predestined to Hell which contradicts scripture when God said "Whosoever" calls on the name of the lord shall be saved. God desires for "No One" to perish but "All" should reach repentance.

What do you believe? When are you saved?

Luke 7:50
Jesus said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you; go in peace."

Kinda seems it happened right that moment for this woman.... while she still had years to live on this Earth. Maybe it does for the rest of us too?

So, with your "logic," we're supposed to throw out "elect" from the Bible, we're supposed to introduce new characters into the Bible, ("throwaway disposable people"), oh, and apparently add in some drug addicts, and prostitutes, (granted already got prostitutes in it, but you personally want what you deem as the filthiest people for God to reject, and somehow that's the addicts and prostitutes), suddenly you can't find a single verse in there that can possibly tell you if God did save you, and you're STILL out and out lying about what we are saying to fill in your fantasy, but, hey! You're doing great, right? Because you have a personal god who only loves, doesn't ever, ever, hate, and hey, let's just cut the Bible down to one single verse in the middle of a long speech by Jesus!

Your arrogance and deafness is overwhelming today!

YOU HEAR US! YOU LIE ABOUT WHAT WE'RE SAYING!


Lynn you know how I feel about you. I am not a liar and I dont not appreciate you making that accusation.I would never,ever say such a thing about you. That grieves my spirit deeply sister.

Please answer the following verses...

No.I do not believe in irresistible grace. God is not a dictator. God is not Allah. We choose to accept the free gift.

Pr. 11 says "The fruit of the righteous
is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise."

Why try to win souls if God already elected who will be saved?

2 Peter 3 "The Lord is not slack concerning
His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us,[a] not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

What does long suffering mean? If He already elected who will be saved why does He need to be long suffering? Its already in the bag,the job is done.


Timothy 2 "...
it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior,4who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

No purpose to this verse whatsoever. Tear it out,its a lie.He already chose who would be saved so He doesn't desire all to be saved. This verse is a big fat lie.

John 3
"He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”

Crystal clear, he who believes is saved,he who does not is not saved.

1 John 2
"And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world."

1 Tim.2 For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave Himself a ransom for all


John 3
"For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved."


Hebrews 2 "
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone.

John 3 16 that we learn in Sunday school says "for God so loved that He gave His only Son that whosoever believeth . Choice,he that believes will be saved. The Bible is clear.



Is.53 "
All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.

We have all gone astray and He paid for all our sins. Why did Jesus have to shed His blood?! He died in vein. The elect will be saved so why did He have to be maimed? No,the Bible does not teach this doctrine,period.

Yes,it does because the verses aren't there to support what you are saying.

What do you do with the verses that do support what I say, what do you do with ephesians 2, Romans 9 and everything else that supports the reformed position? You go and try to twist it to fit your assumptions and beliefs about God? That's what's not biblical.

If I put a million $ in a bank account for you, and you refuse to ever acknowledge that money is waiting for you to spend..... does that mean I didn't put it there for you? No, it means you just thumbed your nose at the financial loss I incurred for your benefit. I still lost the money. And it was done for you, not for me.

Oh but we are heretics, don't you know? Because why would God draw people and have them respond in reciprocity to His great love? Right? It is the goodness of God that leads to repentance, but no... man doesn't repent. No.... :rolleyes:
Two people on this site constantly say people call them heretic -- you and Grace7.

I don't see everything that goes on on this site, but I have never seen anyone call anyone else on here a heretic. (True, Preach did call the guy you linked to a heretic, but that guy isn't on here.) What I do find interesting is that both of you keep claiming everyone is calling you a heretic often on threads where the only time that word is used is from one of your mouths/keyboards.

That said, in your very next breath, you managed to lie about a whole bunch of people just to make sure you get to tell everyone what you want to believe they are saying wrong.

And what would you get out of this message, (if you hadn't put me on ignored)? "Oh, she's calling me a liar. Must report!"

If you don't want to be called on lies, STOP LYING!!!

And to be clear which parts of what you said here was a lie, these are the things you're saying others are saying, and yet no one has said any of them, except you in your passive-aggressive way:
1. Oh but we are heretics, don't you know?
2. Because why would God draw people and have them respond in reciprocity to His great love? Right?
3. It is the goodness of God that leads to repentance, but no...
4. man doesn't repent. No.... :rolleyes:

Clear enough?

Isaiah 1:18-20King James Version (KJV)

18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

This pretty much summarises it. You need to do something for salvation. But I would like to read all Romans indeed before reaching a conclusion.

No one who has his eyes open and sees his sin and at the same time sees God's holiness and contrasts them, sees the law, sees where their sin gets them, when presented the gospel and Jesus Christ rejects it, because again men are dead in their sins and transgressions and cannot see it that's why they don't accept God's truth and light, it's foolishness to them, they walk in darkness and don't wanna come to the light, you'll see that all that I said is scriptural and I can quote scripture to back up everything I just said.

God must be domesticated in some fashion or another for some to then "believe" in Him, He must be reduced to a level of a god they feel comfortable with. Otherwise He cannot be God. Notice however there is no reduction in man's position, but an exaltation - that is what happened when God is reduced in this manner, it is unavoidable, God brought to man's level then exalts man.

But, you know, none of this really matters, they're all just having a "differing opinion". The likes of G7 and others is to attack those who stand for truth, and defend the wolves in the sheepfold.

In Open Theism, it has reduced God to a god who learns. Imagine that for a moment. I had one fellow tell me that Isaiah 1:18 is God asking us to come to Him so He can learn from us. Uh? LOL!!!

As far as the faith (the system of doctrines and teachings that are sound in doctrine) Jude 1:3 some "earnestly contend" for it, others "earnestly compromise" against it.
Whoa, Bub! Grace7 may be wrong (sometimes), but he does NOT attack.

I find that both comforting and annoying. lol

Is that what you believe? Jesus told Nicodemus that he must be born again. New birth in Christ occurs when?

Ro 6:4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

No,that is not the Gospel. The Gospel is "For God so loved the WORLD that He gave...that WHOSOEVER believes will have eternal life.

The great commission says "Go into ALL the WORLD and preach..."

Why would He command such a thing when the elect is already saved and the rest are bound for hell?

Iamlearning, lets put it this way, okay? Jesus died on the cross for you. Thats the Gospel truth, He did it personally for you, for me, and for everyone here. That should refute any fearful concept in your mind due to their horrendously distorted use of a verse in order to speculate about things they may not know until they get to the other side.

The fact of the matter is that Jesus died for the world, for all sinners while yet they were considered enemies. Okay? So who then is destined to Hell? Not one. Why? Because Jesus died for all people, for all sins, and once and for all. He sat at the Father's right hand, and is now our High Priest who is able to save us completely because He lives forever interceding on our behalf.

Don't let their speculations place fear in your heart that you aren't of the chosen. You, having believed in the Gospel, are now the temple of the Holy Spirit who is the seal of redemption, a guarantee if you will, of the inheritance to come. Rejoice, because you are a child of God redeemed! There is no condemnation in Christ Jesus. As there is no condemnation may that truth rest in your heart so that you may be confident before God as you fellowship with Him. He loves you, He cherishes you. Don't let that truth be stolen from your heart.
Yes, because "read all of Romans" is "their speculations," while linking to an open theist is not? :confused:
