    Are you a monergist or a synergist?

    Yes you are right. Before Jesus Resurrection, all the Old Testament saints were kept in Sheol, referred in the New Testament as Hades. There was a good side, and a suffering side. The suffering side remains to this day until the final judgement. Those in the good side (Abraham’s bosom) were...

    Don’t forget he played the Antichrist early in his career.

    Basic facts on faith.

    I don’t know what that means. You either have faith to believe something or you don’t. The faith IS the “ability”. When the Gospel is preached, you have people that hear it and believe. Because they have been gifted the faith to do so. You have others that hear and don’t believe, because they...

    Basic facts on faith.

    This is one of the “ballgame “ verses in Scripture. Meaning, if you get this one wrong, it’s going to completely mess up your doctrine and belief system. BOTH the grace AND the faith are gifts from God. That’s precisely what the text says. The question has been asked umpteen different ways...

    5 minutes is not enough time to edit a post.

    Well I’ll be danged! Never noticed that before. But I don’t quite get the preview feature. Isn’t it just basically reading what you just wrote? Anyone can just do that before hitting the post button.

    How do you know that you are saved?

    I have confessed with my mouth Jesus is Lord, (God in the flesh) and I believe in my heart He was raised to life on the 3rd day.

    Are you a monergist or a synergist?

    Didn’t read entire thread, so sorry if I’m repeating what others have said. Funny, I never knew what the fancy terms were for what I believe until coming to CC. But I’m definitely a monergist. Jesus Himself explains it in John 3 pretty easily, and once you see it, you can’t unsee it. “You...

    Why Won't I Vote for Trump?

    Now for Trump; Until Jesus returns, elections have been, and always will be, a matter of voting for the lesser of two evils. As boorish and at times insufferable as President Trump can be, he is STILL insanely better than a democrat. I don’t like the Iran war. I was fine with the first...

    Why Won't I Vote for Trump?

    I think there’s something seriously wrong with those people that voted for, and wished that Kamala Harris and the democrats had won. ESPECIALLY “Christians”. This is where we would be at without exaggeration if the democrats had won: 1. A further normalization of LGBTQI etc…. 2. More laws...

    Why Won't I Vote for Trump?

    This woman explains it even better. I’d highly encourage everyone to watch. I know, I know “I don’t have Facebook”. Ask someone who does! https://www.facebook.com/reel/1374172827516748/?fs=e&s=TIeQ9V&fs=e&fs=e

    Why Won't I Vote for Trump?

    The same reason a snake easily convinced Eve to disobey God. I understand how bad it sounds, but I’m more and more in agreement with the dudes that push repealing the 19th, and possibly have a household vote. I’ve seen not a few women explain exactly why women get caught up in the insanity of...

    OSAS, another angle.

    I agree we can have doubts that the Lord assuages through His Word and the Holy Spirit. It appears Wesley may have been a false convert because he obviously wasn’t assuaged, however doubts are a different category then saying “I don’t love God, nor ever loved Him” Wouldn’t you agree...

    OSAS, another angle.

    I don’t put too much stock in a guy that admitted he didn’t love the Lord: In this private letter (partially written in shorthand), John Wesley expressed a profound crisis of spiritual assurance, famously confessing: [1, 2, 3] "I do not love God. I never did." "Therefore I never believed...

    Why Won't I Vote for Trump?

    How many babies would have been murdered if the Democrats and Harris would have won. The giggling, ecstatic Massachusetts Democrat women legislators that worship Satan, and passed a law there to murder babies up until the moment of birth, would have been nationwide if Trump didn’t win...

    The Rejection of Obedience

    It’s a relatively new revelation to me that those that preach a sinless perfectionism doctrine, are the SAME that preach you can lose your salvation, and have your Heavenly Father toss you into Hell for doing or not doing something. PLEASE, any new, or confused Christian reading this thread...

    The Rejection of Obedience

    Why would you think I’d want God to condemn you? You have some warped thinking.
