    Predestination is misunderstood...

    The one who fails to realize because of a man centred gospel ... is the one who refuses to acknowledge that all who have posted in this thread agree that salvation is wholly of/by/from God. So you are still engaging in strawman fallacy. Go back and read what was submitted in Post 5611. Other...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    not an answer, brightfame52 ... On the one hand you state: God delivers "from bondage, and captivity to sin, which unbelief/disobedience is" and on the other hand you state: "those He died for do not have to believe it, accept itor do anything but continue being ungodly sinners" so, are we...

    Who Justifieth the Ungodly

    :rolleyes: ... foolish babbling of the Scripturally illiterate ... nope ... you're wrong. Luke 5: 27 And after these things he [Jesus] went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said unto him, Follow me. 28 And he left all, rose up, and followed him...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    yup ... and I appreciate your thoughts on God's sovereignty ... "His sovereignty is more pronounced that He is able to accomplish all of His will and plans even in the face of man’s freedom to choose" ... reminds me of records in Scripture where God uses negative circumstances to bring about His...

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    When you purchased your two houses, you gave the down payment and more than likely you moved into at least one, if not both, of the houses at closing. When escrow closed and you moved in, did you not guarantee that full payment would be made at the end of the term? My husband and I put a down...

    Did you read 1 Corinthians chapters 1 through 3? Here are a some verses from that section ... 1 Corinthians 1:11-13 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. Now this I say, that every one of you saith...

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    the ministry of your shepherd should be to point you to the Shepherd. if you are following your shepherd, you're following a man. Following men is what causes division in the body of Christ ... read 1 Corinthians chapters 1 through 3. Following the Lord Jesus Christ results in unity where...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    Clearly you do not understand reconciling (Greek katallássō ). The word "reconciling" in 2 Cor 5:19 is translated from the Greek word katallássō which means decisively change, as when two parties reconcile when coming ("changing") to the same position. God (the Party of the first part)...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    "those God so Loved" ... John 3:16-17 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. lie...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    I don't think brightfame52 believes in universalism. What he believes is that the world referred to in John 1:29, 3:16-17 and elsewhere and the whole world referred to 1 John 2:2 does not refer to all mankind The claim of brightfame52 is that the world and the whole world referenced in...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    :rolleyes: ... no it doesn't. The unbelief of mankind does not in any way, shape, or form cause any failure on the part of the Lord Jesus Christ. The offering of the Lord Jesus Christ is more than sufficient to cover all the sin of all mankind ... all Adam's descendants. That some reject...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    ok ... got it. to me, there is a difference between (bold mine) and The first statement led me to believe you were saying the Lord Jesus Christ died only for those who believe. I do not know why it is so difficult for some to believe the fact that God allowing some to reject Him does not...

    Jews are grafted in ... in the same manner as gentiles ... through faith. Romans 11:23-24 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again. For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed...
