I must have missed the post where you pointed out all the posts that I liked or agreed with. So you haven't substantiated anything. Perhaps you could post them again?

"it perhaps tells me who you are, bro. Is that who you are?"

I haven't a clue what you are saying or implying here, I ain't a Calvinist that's for sure.

You don't understand my response? It was really clear bro.

I am a so-called Calvinist. One cannot remain anti-Calvinist when they take Scripture in context. But, that's another hill to battle on, not here. But if you and your pals feel the need to ridicule, name-call, lie, hey, go for it. Many of them do, it's their lifestyle and that is solemn fact.

No I don't. I prefer to use a book as I find it easier to flick back and forth.
But the program that @Sackcloth-N-Ashes suggested sounds very useful.

I hear you, I am kind of old fashioned and prefer books as well. But there is a place for books, and a place for programs. Which program did @Sackcloth-N-Ashes recommend? I have some as well. They will be of great assistance to you.

"I ain't a Calvanist that's for sure".

I don't claim to understand the Calvinist idea. Perhaps that's because I'm a relatively new Christian and I've only just came across this word on this forum?
But are we not supposed to be brothers and sisters in Christ?
Why attack someone for their perspective on the Bible?

I'm not attacking for perspective on the bible, I challenge and debate. That's what a discussion forum is for. Through debate and challenge I've substantially changed my understanding.

But the Calvinist's have never made a dent.

"I'm not attacking [...] I challenge and debate".

Yeah but you're not, are you.

You didn't challenge the Calvanism and debate it, you said "I ain't a Calvanist that's for sure", as if to bastardise the word.

No it wasn't - what appears to me is you have your nose out of joint.

That's your opinion and you are welcome to it.

But if you and your pals feel the need to ridicule, name-call, lie, hey, go for it. Many of them do, it's their lifestyle and that is solemn fact.

Like I said you haven't substantiated anything in regards to me - I've asked you to do so and so far you haven't.

Yep, that's who you are as I expected. Gearing up for a long callow fight tonight, correct? Yes, of course. For that you'll have to look elsewhere my friend.

Like I said to the guy I wasn't sure of his implication "it perhaps tells me who you are, bro. Is that who you are?" still ain't - my comment on Calvinism was to affirm that I'm not one.

David did not commit adultery after he took Bathsheba for his wife.

Lol. Everytine he slept with bathsheba he commuted adultry. He was already
Married.

Lol My flesh likes your thinking though. If I see a woman I desire I can take her and get her pregnant. Then kill her husband After which I can have her as my own the rest of my life. It stops becoming sin. Instead it becomes a benefit
And I get to keep my other wife also. (In David’s case many wives)

As @preacher4truth previously stated these verses...


Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God. Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.[1 Cor. 6:9-11]

Look at that I bolded. We can not live a life that when we sin, we show no repentance. That has been shown on here, yet you won’t confront him. Why not confront him?
Click to expand...
Read the passage

It does not say they stopped. It says they were washed

Funny how the rest of the book scolds them for their sexual
Sins

If he will not get to heaven neither will you. You have sins also
So instead of judging pray for your brothers healing as I know he would yours

I’m going to say it one more time, and I don’t care who you are; if you’re on here and have someone on ignore, but still call them names, lie about them &c, you’re a coward. 1 Corinthians 16:13.

Prove one lie

And you want to keep acting this way I will Keep reporting you
And I do not care who you are. When you attack others because they disagree with
You like you have done since i first
Met you
and show no desire to discuss anything. You deserve to go on ignore and If someone else is talking to or about you and the person who ignores you chimed in

it has nothing to do with being a coward
