    Are all people infected by sin?

    Rom 6:1-2 ... Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?

    Both. It is God's will that we believe BUT God does not force us to believe. It is our choice.

    Are all people infected by sin?

    That is the "normal" state of the unregenrate person. Dead in his sins. However, we are not stuck in that condition. Rom 6:3-7 Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that...

    Are all people infected by sin?

    1. Because it is hard to resist temptation. 2. Because we fail to "take every thought captive." 3. Because Satan never gives up. That's why we have confession. 1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

    No one is "saved to begin with." Salvation is a process. 1. Believe. (Requires an act of will.) 2. Act like you believe for the rest of your life. (requires continuous acts of will.) 3. Rejoice when Jesus comes again.

    Are all people infected by sin?

    I think it is important to be clear about exactly what the "total depravity" doctrine states. Total depravity: The doctrine of total depravity (also called "total inability") asserts that, as a consequence of the fall of humanity into sin, every person born into the world is enslaved to the...

    Unveiled Secrets where is the Endtimes Babylon

    It appears to me that you have conflated "God's wrath" and "Tribulation." We will experience tribulation. Jhn 16:33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will[fn] have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world. And Rom 5:3-4... we...

    Probably because of the large Italian communities in the USA> (Columbus being from Genoa, Italy.)

    I don't believe the Bible teaches the Calvinist doctrine of Total Depravity. IMO, the Bible teaches that all of mankind has sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God and that the wages of sin is death. Therefore all of mankind is in need of salvation from death that comes as a result of sin. jim

    Not productive. What's the difference between a Republican congressman/senator and a Democrat congressman/senator? They both went to different schools together.

    I don't want to register but I'll pass along some comments in response to LEGO's post of Saturday, 6 October 2018 9:12:43 AM He stated a variety of standard misconceptions about Christianity. 1. "I don't have a problem with Christianity because it is part of western culture, and the moral code...

    Here in the USA, we would all be Democrats. (Non-democrats would be prosecuted for those behaviors.)

    Bible Study The Significance of Job

    First; keep in mind that the point of reference for behavior in the book of Job is the Law of Moses. I see the book of Job as a balance for the book of Proverbs. In Proverbs, the general theme is; if you keep the Law, shun evil, and pursue good then God will bless you and you will live a safe...

    Bible 101 Now What?

    Yes, I know. That is a theological fact. What you missed was that I was comparing the commonly misused meaning of the word "truth" with the meaning of the word "fact". I was talking about the confusion introduced into any conversation when we misuse language.
