    False teaching by separating Scripture from Scripture

    I keep repeating the "saved by grace" v "saved by works" because they are the only two options. You're attempting to add works to grace, in order to produce a hybrid salvation. But the bible never ever teaches this. You are just like those who believed that Christians should still practice...

    False teaching by separating Scripture from Scripture

    I'm sure you would agree with the fact that every single human being since Adam, has sinned every single day of their lives, and there's is no way they/we can stop sining every single day of our lives. I'm not suggesting that this is a good thing, to the contrary. I consider it a terrible...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    I wasn't suggesting they seek out secular counselling. I assume they can reach out to a Church Minister, he is the only one who can provide professional Godly counsel to a confused Christian. It has nothing to do with a cognitive disorder, we all need someone to teach us and guide us.

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    You still fail to understand that it's not past murderers and adulterers that are forgiven, it's current ones as well. Because the Lord Jesus paid for all the past, present and future sins of Gods elect. The Bible doctrine of eternal security, clearly states that no amount of sin can cause one...

    Hebrews 10:33-34 has nothing to do with Hebrews 6

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    I am sure that is the way it seems to you having been steeped in the teachings of Jacob Arminius, Joel Osteen, Benny Hinn etc. Men who had adopted many of the "saved by self" beliefs that were popular at the time. However, to see what is true we must keep focused not on them but on the written...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    I love your calm and collected approach, towards the mockers. You get your point across in a measured and effective way. I still have a way to go, before I reach your level of enlightenment :)

    False teaching by separating Scripture from Scripture

    If you actually believed in the Biblical "saved by grace" gospel, then you wouldn't believe the Jacob Arminius' "saved by works" version of the gospel. You're trying to marry tow mutually exclusive systems of theology, and I'm reminding you that it's not possible as they oppose each other...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    How are you supposed to learn anything without a teacher. God has appointed and ordained Shepherds to watch over us sheep. I don't know why you'd reject Gods Shephard's and take the law into your own hands by setting yourself up as your own unqualified and unauthorized shepherd. You don't know...

    False teaching by separating Scripture from Scripture

    1 John 3:9 does not teach that a born-again believer must stop sinning completely; rather, it teaches that a true Christian cannot live a continuous, unrepentant lifestyle of sin. The original Greek text describes an ongoing action or habit. A true believer does not "make a practice of...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    You sure butchered Hebrews 6 beyond recognition. All your points a moot, because the so called warning were never directed at any real people. They were all hypothetical scenarios, and no such people existed in Hebrews 6 so you're only chasing shadows. The author would never suggest that true...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    You really are confused, you don't even know what to believe, And I have no idea what you believe either, so I can't help you. It sounds like you need some professional counsel, to help you figure out what you believe.

    False teaching by separating Scripture from Scripture

    I'm not accusing you of anything, I'm merely pointing out that everything you say reveals that you're version of the gospel is the exact same version that Jacob Arminius taught. Like yourself, he was a great proponent of the "saved by works" version of the gospel. He rejected Gods Word which...

    False teaching by separating Scripture from Scripture

    I'm sure you'd agree that 1 John 3:9 does not teach that regenerated people achieve sinless perfection in this life. And I'm sure you would agree that a genuine believer cannot live an unbroken, habitual lifestyle of unrepentant sin either. John is describing a person who makes a habit out of...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    OK, so you believe that God contradicts Himself and we can't trust His Word. I strongly disagree with your opinion, because God declares that a murder and adulterer (David) is a man after His own heart. You should never pit Gods Word against Gods Word, in order to proclaim your false message...

    False teaching by separating Scripture from Scripture

    All of that is based on the "saved by works" version of the gospel. But the Bible reveals that it's a false version, which can't save anyone. Your version of the gospel is not the true gospel. You claim that you are saved by your obedience, but the Bible reveals that nobody is saved by their...

    Are you a monergist or a synergist?

    My "system" is not my "system". I have no system, I follow the Lord Jesus and His system. His theology is systematic, He also taught "limited atonement". Here's what the Lord Jesus taught about "limited atonement" or "definite atonement" or "particular redemption"— He taught that His death on...

    False teaching by separating Scripture from Scripture

    I almost rejoiced when I read the first line of your reply, "these verses are all true", I thought you finally admitted that the Word of God is true. But then you followed on by expressing your unbiblical, untrue opinion, by stating, "that they do not teach that Christians cannot stop sinning" ...

    Are you a monergist or a synergist?

    I'm not saying that 1 John 2:2 is wrong, but I am saying that your interpretation of it is wrong. Because if it was right, then God would be a liar.

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    I'm aware of the fact that Hebrews 6 doesn't include the word "false" when it refers to repentance, but you don't need to be a genius to know that their repentance was false. If it was true repentance, then they would not have fallen away and revealed that their repentance was indeed false. I...
