WB: Given that our Creator doesn't force His views on you or anyone else I most certainly don't fight against Him and don't even think of forcing my views on you. YHWH has given us the freewill to choose to serve Him ...or reject Him. And that's as it should be. It's as C S Lewis says: "In the...

WB: Objective standard for morality based on well being. And please do tell how ALL people can arrive at the same interpretation of 'well being' in the context of, say, Richard Dawkins who is of the view that a human foetus is of no more value than that of the foetus of a pig?

Yes, that sounds like a pretty fair description of me......for not sharing the worldview of tolerant liberal Wokists.

Technically you're correct. But the problem is that there are certain types e.g. strident militant homosexuals and lesbians who insist and demand that not only are they entitled to get what they want but also everyone else must uncritically accept and approve of them. As for me, I couldn't care...

I'd say you've provided a pretty good analysis of the situation and readily confess in my atheist days I would've been a perfect fit in the 'self-preservation of ego' category. It's understandable. As a carnal man with the mind only on self and self-actualization it's natural in that condition...

A proper argument involves stating a proposition backed with facts, evidence, and references to the aforementioned points. The parties involved enter into such discussions prepared to have their proposition challenged by legitimate questions for the purpose of arriving at the truth. In avoiding...

Please provide the Scriptural reference from the Bible version to support your assertion. Thank you.

WB: Unbelievers will according to Scripture be sent to 'hell' ....but it's important to know precisely what 'hell' is and what it is not. To get to the Truth of the matter the starting point is to get a precisely accurate translation of the original Hebrew words 'Sheol' and the Greek words...

WB: You don't know what is meant by 'eternal torture'? You know what is meant by 'eternal'? Everlasting life, life without end. Do you understand that explanation and agree with it? You don't know what is meant by 'torture'? Inflicting severe pain on someone (for punishment).Do you...

Your candour is really appreciated. I'm speaking as a former atheist when I say that when I first opened the Bible looking for 'loopholes' i.e. mistakes/errors to justify my position and conduct which was hedonistic I slammed the book SHUT! on reading about the outcome for drinkers and women...

I will suggest that the way to discern the Truth of the matter is to firstly recognize that whatever view we have on this issue may possibly be due to what we were first ‘taught’ to believe. Secondly, we may have to consider that that view is possibly incorrect. Thirdly, we need to recognize...

WB: Interesting response to which I'll make a couple of comments. IF Jesus offered His saving grace only to those who were not self-centred I'd say the number of people saved could be counted on the fingers of one hand and for sure I most certainly wouldn't be numbered in that very tiny group...

WB: What facts and evidence can you produce that 'serving self-centred people is going to make things WORSE'? I will suggest to you that your best mindset and course of action is to not be ego-centric and instead be theo-centred and the very bests example I can give you of someone who was...

WB: Here's a reality - not easy to take but true nonetheless and which when you accept it will set you free - all of us and I do mean ALL are self-centred. It's how we are; we've inherited this self-centred sin nature from Adam and in the present Age we're stuck with it. There are, of course...

WB: May I make a suggestion? The next time you are in a 'social situation' and you feel anxious - feelings are preceded by thoughts - stop yourself in your tracks and try to identify the words you are thinking that cause your feelings. For example, let's say you're in a group of people who you...

WB: It seems to me that his fixation with labelling people as Calvinists (with whom he evidently disagrees even though when asked to give specific quotes from Calvin himself didn't do so) and other ists, is a self erected barrier to his understanding. I quoted words that are assigned to Luther...

WB: Of course. And as you took the time to mention that do you have answers to the questions presented?

"Christians Are Not Sinners" WB: I will suggest that you've created a controversy - maybe it's a good thing ...and maybe not - in the use of your header term. I think it unnecessary for me - given that others have cited specific passages of Scripture stating that ALL, even Christians, sin - to...

WB: I've tried to explain this to you and I can't see how you find my responses confusing especially when I put WB: in front of my comments and cite your comments with - Everlasting grace:

awelight: So, again, I agree with you. Faith is a gift because Grace includes it. I just wanted to help you see the whole of God's beautiful Plan, by His marvelous Grace. God be with you. WB: Freegrace2 has been arguing that faith precedes salvation and disputed what I had to say and it seems...
