All that effort and you still did not address the question. Are you in some twisted way simply saying that we receive grace and not accept grace? If so, just say you are chosen by election and leave it at that. Election is not an issue of choice or acceptance. In election there is no...

Can you accept the gift or is accepting a work also?

Relying on His work is a choice. A choice that we cannot make. The proper way to express this is "Because I am chosen God will send me of Him but not the rest of you." Relying on the sufficient grace of Christ is a choice. A choice that we cannot make. The proper way to express this is...

Amazingrace, kudos on your attempt to reason with the "chosen". Your efforts are not in vain. There are many others that need to hear this reasoning. They most certainly will not get it from the "chosen".

Self qualifying yourself into a pronoun is truly ignorant. And this is exactly what you are doing. At least try to be humble.

Of course, its done many times. Don't tell me you need examples? No one is suggesting that we earn our salvation. That's just you beating a dead horse that was never there.

I know this may be a shock to your system but believing that you are right with God does not validate your position. Proclaiming such is a sign of extreme ignorance.

Anything that can be freely given, can be freely taken back. This is one of the lessons of the Parable of the Ungrateful Servant.

The difference between Luke 7:48 and Acts 2:38 is huge! The forgiveness granted to the woman in Luke 7:48 is a descriptive passage meant for one person in peculiar. The remission of sins offered to those cut to the heart is a prescriptive passage meant for those there, the in the future and to...

By the grace of God who by obedience, we are Saved. "After he was brought to his goal, he became the source of eternal salvation for everyone who obeys him," (Hebrews 5:9) I leave the "chosen ones" to their arrogance. They can't help but be saved. If in the end they are saved, who am I to...

The sins of the thief on the cross were forgiven the same way as it was forgiven in Luke 7:48. The thief on the cross is not the promise for us or our children nor is it for all those far away. That promise is clearly stated in Acts 2:38-39.

Hey Trustandobey, are you Catholic? Please tell the little mouse yes or no. As you said, the little mouse assumes much. And Bible_Locket, I assume you are Pentecostal since you seem to have esoteric knowledge. Let me guess...you also have the ability to interpret tongues.

Can you simply answer the question?

Since when can you ignore half of a question? Quoting John 10:37-38 does not answer the first clause of the question.

Is this what we are, simply leaking faucets? An object with no control over its defect? To be repaired or thrown in the trash with no regard for our own wishes. Is this what election is all about?

All who have lived are in the Book of Life. Whether the name stays or is blotted out is for us to decide not election.

This was the question from post# 3040 "If good works are evidence of walking with God is walking with God evidence of salvation?" This was your answer from post# 3041 "Yes. Walking with God is evidence of salvation and denotes a relationship with Him." I did not ask was walking with God...

That's nice but that's not the question that was asked. You are ignoring the first clause of the sentence. Here is the question again: If good works are evidence of walking with God is walking with God evidence of correct theology?

What does this mean?

Okay I take back the coy. You are rather sly. Stop changing the question. I did not write was "walking with God evidence of salvation". I wrote: If good works are evidence of walking with God is walking with God evidence of salvation? Did you really think someone would not notice that you...
