that is horse before the cartism And if you need to know what Calvin believed read Calvin. Regeneration comes first, then we believe and so receive Christ "while we were dead in our trespasses and sins He made us alive together with Christ by grace we have been saved. YOU HAD TO SURRENDER...

You keep preaching "we must all appear before the judgement seat of Christ" how is your freewill involved in that? God GAVE them repentance ... you say they chose it of their own freewill If you acknowledge it was God's free gift of grace to you it will make you gentle to everyone "oh that...

Chosen before the world begun that we might be a people for the praise of His glorious grace ... not to be a people boasting it was our decidings, our choosings, our own freewill.

that's right it's God's will. He commands all men everywhere to repent.

yes God determined it all ... so give Him all the glory and don't try to pretend that you did it by your own freewill.

Did you choose to be born? did God come and ask you what colour hair or eyes you would have? how tall? whether you would be rich or poor? male or female? Do you find that offensive that God would Lord it over you in such a "tyrannical" fashion? Then why on earth are you offended if God should...

Hi that is not really what the argument is about. The question is does God choose us? do we choose God? is it a combination of these positions? My position is plain and simple God chooses us. Any other position has complexities, I don't need to tell you that vast libraries of books have been...

what are you on about

This is nothing to do with reality. The reality is the fat generals who run NATO know that sooner or later Russia and China are set to overtake the US economically. They made a strategic decision to goad Russia into war to weaken Russia to give them a shot at defeating China at a later stage...

I was talking about before you were saved, not implying that you are not saved. Why do the apostles never speak like this? "we accepted Jesus as our Saviour ... we made a decision ... we chose Him to be our Saviour" "Thanks be unto God the Father and Jesus Christ whom we have chosen of our own...

if your will is set to reject Christ and His salvation, and it is. The flesh is forever at emnity with God. Wouldn't you want for God to utterly subdue and subjugate your will until you cry out "what must I do to be saved?" the doctrine of Human freewill is idolatry. YOU are on the throne.

You didn't quote that correctly it says "Go quickly to the highways and hedges and COMPEL them to come in" You don't like that word compel. You always talk about faith and believing as though it were not a gift The bible says it is a gift, not of yourselves lest Pilgrim'shope should boast in...

Yes I see it differently to you Suppose another scenario, suppose you heard the gospel preached with great wisdom so that nobody could withstand it, suppose also you witnessed great miracles done by this preacher called Stephen, a deacon of the church. But instead of being persuaded and being...

what you have is a mental block, unless God takes it out of your mind nobody is going to get through to you. I don't see Jesus begging anybody to believe in Him or to be His disciple. What I see is Him speaking in parables so that seeing they see not and hearing they hear not lest they should...

By "this stuff" I mean trying to apply the gospel to the human mind, the mind of the flesh, human emotions. Trying to get the human mind to believe, to decide, to choose. There is nothing wrong with God's word, nothing wrong with the gospel .... there is nothing in man which enables him to...

yes the key is knowing Him

well good Nehemiah that's what the argument is all about, I do not understand from the scriptures you have quoted that I may choose or that I have any freewill in the matter. What I see is that when the gospel is preached in power, the Holy Ghost falls upon people and they do believe.

he's 82 ... Whatever Trump means he is a democrat, it's the Democrats who are behaving like banana republic politicians. And they cheat.
