    A misconception of obedience

    Your reasoning is sound but alas your words do not tickle the ears. Many conflate simple obedience with works of merit. This is the error that they are blind to. Let me make this clear. Those of the Faith Alone Regeneration Theology movement will label anything done in the name of obedience...

    Some of the OT can be hard to stomach

    God destroyed His entire creation with the flood, anything after that seems trivial in comparison. We are but His creation and our sustainer. We have no meaning or purpose outside of His will. I will not attempt to understand something so immense. Romans 4:17 (as it is written: “I have made...

    The problem of the statement of “never saved to begin with”

    I have no idea what you are talking about. And I mean that sincerely.

    The problem of the statement of “never saved to begin with”

    ??????? Who bore the debt? The servant in Matthew 18:24, of course. The whole parable is about forgiveness and the revoking of forgiveness. What do you think this parable is about?

    The problem of the statement of “never saved to begin with”

    He was still a dead son, he was still a lost son. DNA does not save. There is no hope in being a dead and lost son. Better a live dog then a dead lion. (Ecclesiastes 9:4) There is also no point in clinging to a forgiveness that has been revoked/taken back. (Matthew 18;21-35) But hey, if...

    The problem of the statement of “never saved to begin with”

    The Daddy (Abba) said that his son was lost, he said he was dead. (The Parable of the Lost Son) The king revoked (took back) the forgiven debt of his servant. (Parable of the Unforgiving Servant) The son/servant were not "disciplined" they were in a condemned state.

    The problem of the statement of “never saved to begin with”

    None of us know what impact our words may have on others but when falsehood goes unchecked sin does also. I hope that in some small way, my defense of the Gospel will have a positive affect on some soul.

    The problem of the statement of “never saved to begin with”

    "Again you conflate terminology."??? If innocence is not righteousness, then trust is not faith. I suspect you are purposely nit-picking.

    The problem of the statement of “never saved to begin with”

    The height of grass is objective. The claim of your name being in the Book of Life is subjective. Did this really have to be spelled out to you?

    The conversion of the Philippian Jailer in Acts 16.

    Why stop at "water"? Why not argue the meaning of "spirit"? Are there not multiple meanings of spirit that we can come up with if we try hard enough? Can we not muddy up the meaning of spirit to mean the "spirit of knowledge and understanding" that was mentioned in Isaiah 11:2-5? Maybe its the...

    The conversion of the Philippian Jailer in Acts 16.

    What does Acts 10 have to do with the remission of sins before baptism? Be honest wattie, do you understand the meaning of "quote"?

    Can you quote this from the Bible?

    I noticed that also. I doubt HeIsHere can see it. The ditch may be to deep.

    Amniotic fluid is not water...I promise. Jesus knew it was not water also.

    Very well said. They see works under every rock. Except their blind defense of Faith Alone Regeneration Theology.

    The conversion of the Philippian Jailer in Acts 16.

    Is that not what Peter commanded in Acts 2:38 so that you will receive the remission of sins? Peter answered them, “All of you must turn to God and change the way you think and act, and each of you must be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ so that your sins will be forgiven. Then you will...

    Jesus: He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned. No shoehorn here. ************************************************************************************************************************************** You: "Now you don't need to...

    The conversion of the Philippian Jailer in Acts 16.

    If faith alone is absolutely the only thing required for the remission of sins then we would expect Jesus to use such verbiage but He clearly does not. If you are able to quote such a verse I would be happy to read it. You can even quote another person beside Jesus in the Bible that uses such...
