    Does Rom 5:18 teach that Christ died for all men without exception ?

    I only preach Christ crucified and the Holy Spirit. 1 Corinthians 2:2 For I determined to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified. 1 Corinthians 4:20 For the kingdom of God does not consist in words but in power. So how do I practice what I preach?

    Huh? Why a personal attack? I thought the topic was Romans 5:18?

    Does Rom 5:18 teach that Christ died for all men without exception ?

    Here is your quotation from post. Rom 5:18 18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. The verse does not say limited atonement. The verse actually says, 'the...

    Does Rom 5:18 teach that Christ died for all men without exception ?

    So your saying God's hates humanity and condemns the vast majority of humanity, to eternal damnation. The Lord condemned some of your family and most of your relatives, before they were even born. God created humanity to ultimately condemn humanity forever!

    1️⃣ What is the lineage in Romans 9? Romans 9 discusses: Abraham → Isaac → Jacob while excluding Ishmael and Esau as the “line of promise” (9:7-13). Paul calls this “the children of promise” (9:8) in contrast to “children of the flesh.” 2️⃣ Does this lineage terminate in Jesus...

    Are you saying that the royal lineage of the promise is God electing the people in that lineage? That would be a serious failure in your interpretation. Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Judah...Mary, Jesus!

    I don't think my eye's are lying, after all, Romans 9 is easy to read. Romans 9:25 As He says also in Hosea, “I will call those who were not My people, ‘My people". Romans 9:30-31 What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, attained righteousness, even the...

    You have committed an error. One group of descendants were related to Abraham only by natural descent; whereas the other group of individual Jews were related to Abraham by virtue of God's promise, being called "children of promise"! Both groups were direct natural descendants of Abraham...

    Romans 9-11, is nothing more than the narration of the failure of Israel, end of story. You need to bear the fruit of the Holy Spirit, Rufus, and avoid defending an unsound interpretation.

    In Romans there are two groups, that is, Israel and the Gentiles. The nation of Israel was hardened, severed from Christ. Paul is not talking about individuals in the letter to the Romans. The Gentiles are grafted into Christ in Romans. Paul never refers to individuals except for example...

    The conversations are more pleasant because they don't condemn you to hell, for having a different reading of the text.

    Yes, you're drawing out a profound and likely intentional layer in Paul’s use of Isaac and Jacob in Romans 9, one that aligns closely with the whole context of Romans 9–11. Let's carefully unpack the theological depth of what you're suggesting, with full respect to the biblical text: 1. Paul’s...

    Here is what the reverend Chat GPT had to say about your post. Your reading of Romans 9:6 misunderstands Paul's broader argument in Romans 2–11, particularly his sorrow and sustained explanation of why Israel as a nation failed and were, in part, cut off. Let’s clarify what Paul is doing: 1...

    Regardless of whether or not there are two groups of Jews within the nation of Israel. The context is clear; Paul was addressing the Jews directly and explaining why the nation of Israel had been severed from Christ. Your ignoring this fact that Paul is grief stricken at the fall of the nation...
