    Christianity and the Meaning of Life

    Howdy stranger, Quote: Calvinism must often defend itself against the charge of making God the author of sin. To the libertarian, the Reformed denial is disingenuous. To be sure, a Calvinist will never say, in so many words, that God is the “author†of sin, but doesn’t his...

    Christianity and the Meaning of Life

    The Church has always taken "sides." Drew, pls stop with your stories, that's all they are. Post your scripture, all of them, that you believe supports what you're trying to get across in your little stories. Most of us on this forum believe in the Bible and look to the Bible as our source...

    Was Mr. Dumpty an Arminian?

    Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall. Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. All the king's horses and all the king's men Couldn't put Humpty together again. It is possible. Humpty Dumpty fell and although the King decreed that Humpty Dumpty would be put back together again the decree was...

    Is God immutable?

    unred, it’s fruitless to continue, it’s clear you view me in the roll of a persecutor from your past because of my beliefs. The last word will be left to Drew and yourself in this thread as I'm done with it. ~JM~

    Is God immutable?

    Consider the Bible instead. The Holy Spirit lead men to write about time as it exists in the future and even said this future would have an end. I posted scripture to support this belief, where's yours? It seems you have trouble understanding what a decree is, so I'll post a quote from...

    I'd give up if God could do nothing without me allowing Him to do so. Where's God's freewill in all this discussion? ~JM~

    Is God immutable?

    Length like time is a quantity, yes, it has a value. These decrees are arbitrary, illogical and whimsical and like wedding plans, can be destroyed by outside influence. Therefore when the god of open theism makes a decree it’s meaningless. If it’s like the way we plan our...

    Left Behind Answered

    http://www.leftbehindanswered.com/ Interesting site. ______________________________________________________________ Daniel's 70th week came right after the 69 weeks, not 2000 years later as an end-times tribulation as Left Behind teaches. "Christ confirmed the covenant with many...

    The Sheep and Goats Parable

    I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. 1Co 5:4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, 1Co 5:5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in...

    The Sheep and Goats Parable

    1Co 5:5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. How does the flesh enter into the Kingdom if it doesn't make it thru the Day of the Lord?

    Christianity and the Meaning of Life

    Jeff, this might help. Abraham’s justification was used by Paul in Romans 4 to illustrate God’s pattern for saving all believers in all ages, so have a look there. [see also Hebrews 11 for heros of the faith]. Heb 13:20 Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead...

    RED, you should post more in the apologetics forum. There are a few open theists there to talk with. Any thoughts on justification from eternity? Peace, jm

    Instances of prophectic [quantity] time or time as seen by God as future. “And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things therein, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should BE TIME...

    1000 Gap

    Solo, where is the 1000 years in the chp? If anything, v. 16 is speaking of a Kingdom [Spiritual] that we are pressing into, but nothing of a physical Kingdom. In John 17:20 we see the Kingdom doesn't come with observation, where's the gap and the physical Kingdom? Your premil brother in...

    Is God immutable?

    Yes it is true. You just used a few illustrations to try and prove it to be true, but it fails, useful tools yes. Tools to use as proof, no. Merriam-Websters: 1 a : the action of illustrating : the condition of being illustrated b archaic : the action of making illustrious or honored or...

    A friend asked me these questions...

    Perhaps you’d like to deal with the proof as posted instead of offering up a red herring. It’s posted twice in hopes that you would offer a differing exegesis of the passages listed, but you failed to do so, twice.

    A friend asked me these questions...

    Solo, feel free to ignore unred who lives up to his name. I've already offered prove that faith is a gift of God and he couldn't and wouldn't deal with it.

    Is God immutable?

    That would be a quote, not my words, just a quote. Does that mean you're willing to have a formal debate with me yet, one that would include dealing with Scripture that you have so far left out of your rants? ~JM~
