    Christ Jesus came into the world to save ALL sinners

    God so loved the entire kosmos (world) He sacrificed His only Begotten Son to give everyone (who didn't commit eternal sins like accepting the Mark of the Beast) THE OPPORTUNITY to be saved. God does not over-ride free will. Your premise is evil people will repent and be saved. That is...

    What happens to the soul of an aborted fetus?

    If it exists, the redeemed will have an eternity to explore it:

    Christ Jesus came into the world to save ALL sinners

    Not my answer. Bearing false witness has consequences also. You should consider that before you make stuff up and claim others believe it.

    Christ Jesus came into the world to save ALL sinners

    The apostles were Jews, as is our LORD Jesus: "salvation is of the Jews". (Jn. 4:22 NKJ) We aren't the "continuation" of Judaism, we are grafted into the "Israel of God" 17 And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with...

    Christ Jesus came into the world to save ALL sinners

    1 What advantage then has the Jew, or what is the profit of circumcision? 2 Much in every way! Chiefly because to them were committed the oracles of God. (Rom. 3:1-2 NKJ) The Jewish OT canon is correct.

    Christ Jesus came into the world to save ALL sinners

    Everything I believe is in the 66 book canon accepted as scripture by all of Christendom. I reject the apocryphal books.

    The Biblical Timeline Backbone - 37 Events from Creation to New Jerusalem

    I asked a simple question. I don't want to read a book for an answer.

    How to avoid the mark of the beast

    The voice coming from the altar signifies this is God’s answer to the prayers for justice by the saints (Rev. 6:10; 8:3-5). The TARES who betrayed the wheat will now get their just reward. The “great river Euphrates” is the symbolic boundary of the land of God (Gen. 15:18; Deut. 1:7; 11:24...

    How to avoid the mark of the beast

    Another reason not to resist, but gladly die for Christ is our weakness. Suppose you are able to "live off the grid" or do as some stupid movies have it, put on a fake mark of the beast. Everyday, every minute of the day you are seeking to preserve your life. Will you die for Christ when the...

    How to avoid the mark of the beast

    The way out is to be beheaded: 12 Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. 13 Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, "Write:`Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.'" "Yes," says the Spirit, "that they...

    Christ Jesus came into the world to save ALL sinners

    1 Peter 4:6 is years after 1 Peter 3:18, when Christ was crucified. Peter was speaking about the mockers of the gospel, not spirits in prison: 4 In regard to these, they think it strange that you do not run with them in the same flood of dissipation, speaking evil of you. 5 They will give an...

    How did you calculate the Tribulation happening 6 years from now?

    Christ Jesus came into the world to save ALL sinners

    Some get more than a lifetime, deathtime is added so all get a fair shot at the prize: For this reason the gospel was preached also to those who are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit. (1 Pet. 4:6 NKJ)

    The APOSTASIA in 2 Thes 2.3

    The clue is given in the context. The "rebellion" is against "all that is called God or that is worshiped": 3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts...

    Christ Jesus came into the world to save ALL sinners

    Not all are condemned. It is written: 13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. 14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And anyone...

    Christ Jesus came into the world to save ALL sinners

    Not according to scripture, the book of life is opened because some raised up from Hades and Death WERE written the book of life. ONLY those not written were lost: 13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each...

    Christ Jesus came into the world to save ALL sinners

    Your theory of atonement failed to realize the universal scope of Christ's sacrifice. God so loved the Kosmos, everyone in it including the dead, they all have the opportunity to believe: 14 "And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15...

    Christ Jesus came into the world to save ALL sinners

    Just as I thought. A whole lotta of "sola", and no scripture. Your theory of atonement failed to realize the universal scope of Christ's sacrifice. God so loved the Kosmos, everyone in it including the dead, they all have the opportunity to believe: 14 "And as Moses lifted up the serpent in...

    Christ Jesus came into the world to save ALL sinners

    That doesn't explain his belief Christ’s death was sufficient for the salvation of every human being, but was effective only for the elect. The value and merit of Christ’s sacrificial death on the cross is capable of atoning for the sins of the entire world, but only the elect are saved. God...
