Firstly, those who claim Christians are entitled to physical healing in this lifetime are the deceivers. The logical conclusion of your teaching is that if someone has a debilitating issue such as cerebral palsy or paralysis, if they are never healed of it, it is because they lack faith...

Show me one example of a woman apostle or elder, and cut out 1 Timothy 3 and selected other verses, and you might have a point. Also, show us that women leadership has not tended to lead toward acceptance of homosexual clergy and gay civil unions..that's another issue. I don't think women can...

Here's what I said: "I may not be able to understand exactly how this can be true, just like I can't understand how God has existed eternally. I am human, and everything has a beginning. I am one person with one being (body), and I can't conceive of a being who is three persons with one being...

I am not sure I fully understand this dialogue. My point was that the Triune God was not fully revealed in OT Scripture but he is revealed in NT Scripture. Jesus was "God with us". The Holy Spirit is another advocate like Jesus , but not Jesus. So, the distinctions were not clear until...

I have repented and believed. And, I am not rich. It is a shame upon the USA that groups like TBN are piping their false teachings into India and other poor countries.

I knew a woman who attended a church called Glory Barn run by a guy that believed like you. His name was Hobart Freeman. As a result of her "faith" she didn't wear glasses for about six years, so she was unable to drive during that period of time. Finally, she wised up that she was following...

No, I believe men are more susceptible to sexual lust and anger issues. Statistics show that sexual predators are over 80 percent male, though. What does that tell you about it?

I already explained John 3:16 IN DETAIL Read the verses which come before it. Has anyone ever taught you that you are supposed to read the Bible IN CONTEXT? Do you notice that Jesus talks about being born again prior to John 3:16? Why do you think he does that? This isn't brain surgery...

Just another remark..it appears like you are an Indian who is living in Greece. If so, India is one of the areas where fake health, wealth, and prosperity teachers have propagated a false gospel. That is unfortunate. Individuals who are in the poorest countries are some of the most...

I will break this post into several responses as I don't have time to answer them all at once. Regarding Romans 12:2, I already responded to this. I think what you are trying to do is exhaust me by attrition. "all men" is in the context of Jews and Gentiles. Read the context. Prior to...

Just to add one point.. Another reason why I prefer to use the word "Reformed" is that I believe the other side is basically trying to swim the Tiber and return back to Rome, only without the "smells and bells" of the ritualism of Rome. My fundamental exposure to the underlying concepts was...

I am not a KJV guy so I won't defend it :) The Trinity doctrine is not based on translations of translations. It is based on the Bible. You can find Scriptures that teach each of the following: 1. There is one God. 2. The Father is God. 3. The Son is God. 4. The Holy Spirit is God. 5...

The word "mystery" in the NT actually describes something that was not understood before, but is now being revealed. That is the meaning of the word generally. A mystery is "some truth that had been hidden in the past, but was eventually revealed by God". So, the Bible uses this word in a...

I'm not sure I understand the points you are trying to make. Firstly, Christ has redeemed his creation through the atonement. He reverses the effect of the Curse. However, this is not fully consummated until his return. At his return, the resurrection of believers will occur, and this...

I'm not sure if I understand your question, but what I said was that the exact nature of the Incarnation is not something that is clear. Man becoming God is a pretty awesome event. If a man became an ant, and I was an ant, I wouldn't be able to explain this. There are other things I cannot...

The question you should ask yourself is whether God is obligated to save ANYONE. It seems to me as if the built-in assumption of free-willers is that God is obligated to save everyone. I don't hold that assumption. I don't think that God tried to save every man since the beginning of...

I don't believe in equal ultimacy, if that is what you are expressing. If you mean that God saves the elect while allowing the rest to pursue eternal destruction, that's exactly what I believe. Again, read Romans 9-11. It's no different than saving eight people from destruction in the flood...

What does Romans 9-11 teach? All of your guy's claims are addressed in Romans 9. And the objections to them. It's really God that you have the issue with. I simply fully acknowledge Scripture. And, yes, I have been elected. God has regenerated me, giving me spiritual life and a heart of...

You can't deny Scripture. Or I guess you can.. Because that is what you are doing. Election is CLEARLY BIBLICAL and re-defining terms does not help your case. For instance, claiming that only a class was elected, and by being added to this class, you are elect. If you are looking for...

You're still waiting for a heart of flesh?
