When God created man in His image? He granted man to have his own domain of sovereignty to reflect God's nature. God honors man's divinely conceived design - to have sovereignty in a limited realm... so much? That God will not over ride a man's (soul's) volition. For man is sovereign when he...

What does God save of you? If you were totally depraved that would leave God with nothing to save. I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me...

Having faith reveals that you have been saved.

After showing you how it was done? Showing you again? And, maybe for the fifth time? You are not able to grasp it... You have a dogma bucket tight over your head. One that blinds you.

Your faith is the gift of God. Romans 10:17 tells us how we get faith! "So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ." God presented faith, and we took it! It was a gift from God! Grace was God's applied power to suppress our flesh, as to allow our soul to give that...

I am not a TULIP minded Christian. Your inquiry was hinting at that you might be. I wished to find out why you asked, to know how I should approach my answer. God must do a work before anyone can get saved. But, God's work is not to make us get saved. If it were? Romans 1:18-23 would reveal...
