, oh my lanEveryone thinks I misspelled my name. LOL. Has happened since I got here. It's supposed to be a play on words. I guess I shoulda went with something else. Kinda stuck with it now though.![]()
Heehee proving once again that English is not an easy language to master...And I thought that fourth and forth is the same thing, like colour and color![]()
Thanks for the end part of your post, but I'm not good, God is good, I'm a work in progress, nothing more.
Interesting statement you made (to this he called you through our gospel)
thanks man I guess you were called through the gospel before me right plain arrogance, I believe the gospel is for all people who believe in it, period.
Called and elected are two different things.
Yeesh! Why would I talk about the evil of double predestination when I'm still shaky on why it's not double-predestination? I kind of still do think it's double-predestination. All deserve separation from God, death and hell, and yet God chose some out of that all. Does that not also say he destined the rest to get what we all deserve?Do you really see how your own hypocrisy is now showing? These are not lies, and I have no bitterness towards my Father , who went to glory years ago.
These are truths of your doctrine that you like to brush aside that you cannot refute. You yourself have talked about the evil of double predestination on other threads.
See the thing with reformed people is this, they cannot and will not allow non-reformers to shine the light in their dark places, because they have no answer for the sick, twisted part of their doctrine of sending people to hell, including babies and children that were never elect.
Your hypocrisy is glaring and all you have left.
Heehee proving once again that English is not an easy language to master...
However, native English speakers should know the difference...
But then, many cannot tell the difference between "have" and "of"![]()
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.19 And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil.20 For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed.21 But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”Put John 3:16 in context for me plz. Why does whosoever not mean what it says? Why does believe not mean what it says?
Really?
Heh, you say you are lazy but you ADD a letter, making more work for your selves![]()
Anyways, not a big deal really, though it does bother me when people continually call someone the wrong name... when someone calls me Magneto, I have to figure they have done it on purpose, though I had no idea who Magneto was at first haha so their attempt to insult me was wasted... and then when I found out who Magneto was (my daughter told me), I took it as a compliment, anyways, foiling the intent once again
I will try to explain and hope Kayla does not mind a little levity in her threadI do not understand but nevermind, I like it![]()
Ah, nuts! So you're not really Bubba.Here's my point. We rest in the finished works of the cross. Nothing can be added to this work. That's why we aver faith and repentance are both gifts of God. Both of these are necessary in being saved. If we bring our faith, meaning we innately possess faith, then it was our faith + the cross works of the Christ that saved us. Then, the cross was not the sole sufficient source of our salvation.
The point I am making is the Christ's crossworks actually saves all those it was intended to save. If He died for everyone and rose for everyone's justification, then all will be saved.
Oh, and its Bubby. Around here in WVa, ppl are Bubby and Sissy.![]()

People say something like, "I should of gone home."
When what they mean is "I should have gone home."
See? They substitute "of" for "have" though grammatically it makes NO SENSE!!!
They sound similar because they think "should've."
It is blaspheming the Spirit that caused ppl to be eternally doomed. Jesus said you could speak ill of Him or the Father and still be forgiven. But to speak ill of the Spirit and there's no foregiveness in this age or the one to come.I wanted to address the idea of blasphemy again, since someone (was it you, SovereignGrace? can't really remember, sorry! And maybe it was more than one person, but anyways...) was saying that it does not apply any more and was only applicable to those who denied Jesus to His face, but that cannot be right, or Paul would not have called himself a blasphemer, and if Paul really does not understand what blasphemy is, then we need to throw the majority of the NT out![]()
Thank you, Bill, I think names are important alsoIts all cool sister I think names are important. In ForthAngel's case it it changes things a bit in its meaning.

There was no arrogance in that post. Why misrepresent him?Thanks for the end part of your post, but I'm not good, God is good, I'm a work in progress, nothing more.

Why would Paul call himself a blasphemer? He was not present with Christ.It is blaspheming the Spirit that caused ppl to be eternally doomed. Jesus said you could speak ill of Him or the Father and still be forgiven. But to speak ill of the Spirit and there's no foregiveness in this age or the one to come.
They, the religious leaders, attributed the Christ's works to the devil. They said He had an evil spirit. That's the blasphemy that's unpardonable. I don't think ppl today can blaspheme the Spirit as those leaders did, as they visably saw the Christ's works and attributed them to Satan. None see this as they did.
Recently a former member posted the following accusations:
Who here teaches these things?
The Reformed have been barraged with many false accusations. One of the drive by slanders of one recently wishing to be removed from the site employed the derision of "lottery" on others who believe in Biblical election. It was intended to ridicule the doctrine of election and those who believe in it.
Now the accusations include the things included in the above quote as well.
So, I am asking, do you teach God creates people to send them to hell?
Do you teach that if one seeks God out of a contrite heart, and thus seeks forgiveness, that it isn't enough?
Or, are all of these simply more false accusations leveled at the Reformed brothers and sisters?
