Then 1 John was written by an elitist.

It's like you people don't even know what the Bible says.
You claim you have superior knowledge, yet you challenge these plainly written texts in the Bible that anyone with eyes can see for themselves.
You need to learn how to rightly divide the word of truth. You’re all over the place in your opinions.

See, while you're busy learning all about and teaching your osas dogma I'm busy learning and teaching all about living for Christ. You take false comfort out of your so-called knowledge. You think correct doctrine means you know Christ.
Interesting, when in fact understanding eternal security at the deepest levels is what set me free to live and learn about Christ.

This is the truth of it but you are not willing to see.

Moreover, God never offers false comfort!!!

You need to read your Bible with knowing Christ in mind, not with your famous osas doctrine in mind. Take the blinders off and see Christ. Grow up.

You keep proving my point.
Reproof is not being mean and nasty.
Only a child thinks that.
You are not mature in Christ yet.
So you are not mean and nasty in your reproof but we are? :unsure:

I think this is called a double standard.

If you are free in Christ, why did I come back to the forum to see your smug, condescending backbiting remarks? You look down your nose in pride and arrogance at us like the Pharisees did to others not in their camp.

Okay Judges, be careful, you may be entering "Stage Three" of the well known melt downs that have occurred on this thread

Not you, never personal... always the wrong, bad doctrine

What is is like to live each day never really knowing if you are going to make the grade.... there is no peace there and you know that.... so as much as you want to see us as attacking you, it isn't at all, it is your dogma that is the huge problem...

Can you not see how it devalues Christ?

How can you be blind to that?

You do not reprove. You hate and insult and backbite.
I do not hate you that is really out there.

back bite.... well not really sure what that it is, if you perceive it that way, I am sorry but it really is not personal at all.

OSAS is really not a debatable topic because it is truth, you want to make it one ....

what you perceive is back biting is a resistance to your constant belittling of the sacrifice of Jesus.
