c'mon God's wisdom is exhaustive. He doesn't leave anything to chance. The fudamental mistake of Calvin and others before and after him is in applying predestination and election to salvation. Election is unto the church ... it excludes nobody from being saved.

yo two BIG words full of weight and substance [and if understood] glory for those who believe. I agree that Paul does not agree with Calvin in aspects of interpretation, one fundamental. But he sure does disagree with Arminius and his human free willery.

... they are Christ's doctrines

nah, the Father never gave up, he was there every day and when the bad times came the son remember his Father's love and His loving kindness ... that's the Holy Ghost. And the Good Shepherd is not just a story or a proverb. Even if it were it would only convey the truth. We are in the...

says it all, well done Maggie.

oh this is a mis-reading verse 24 "for in this hope we were saved" they were saved The hope is the redemption of our bodies. I have eternal life I hope you do also ... you would surely know.

look Peter would have us to look at his mistake, Paul said it was hypocrisy. There is no personal element in it. It was a flesh decision and all flesh is bad. I got flesh and it's bad. If you think about it Peter could not have submitted immediately because Barnabas and John Mark joined the...

glory ... how are they going to uncrucify themselves?

This is so simple to understand The Good Shepherd had 100 sheep, one was lost, He put the 99 in safety and went after that one who was lost and He found Him and brought him home rejoicing. ... that's it, 100% what do you want?

Totally It means our first joy is gone, we don't pray like we used to, we don't praise like we used, we don't enjoy fellowship so much, we neglect to read the bible ... that is falling away .... that is a huge chunk of the church.

Amen sis, it doesn't say once saved always saved but it says we have ETERNAL LIFE .... it should last until Christmas I reckons

Saved means saved. if you say we could subsequently be lost then the bible would use another word. God does not use words carelessly. Paul says "by grace ye are saved ..." He could not say it if they were merely on probation. Everywhere the NT attests that we are born again, now children of...

I once had a pretty young Chinese girl saved using Peter, she had expressed how she longed to have a pure heart, I showed her Peter, "Himself bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we being dead unto sin might live unto righteousness" She snatched my poor bible from me and glared...

it's quite simple, they are fleeing Jerusalem.

we's all little children to God

No it doesn't, you will have trouble interacting with the Holy Spirit if you have this mind. Jesu's remarks were aimed at a very specific group of people within the vast multitude which swarmed Him. Those were the religious crowd. We got to stop thinking that everybody who is not saved is an...

don't be daft

you are exaggerating this The discussion I was having was to show that the Jewish [and amillennial] view of eschatology is different to Paul's and that Paul was correct. Peter got mixed up in all that.

we go by the bible As by one man sin came into the world and death through sin so sin passed upon all men for that all have sinned. You will die for your own sin not for Adam's. I trust God has had mercy upon you and you are saved.
