    An Ode to Free Will

    To the tune of Amazing Grace. Arminian "grace!" How strange the sound, Salvation hinged on me. I once was lost then turned around, Was blind then chose to see. What "grace" is it that calls for choice, Made from some good within? That part that wills to heed God's voice, Proved...

    I know Drew won’t mind if I take a crack at it. Scriptural Support: Eph 1:5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, Eph 1:9 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good...

    Christianity and the Meaning of Life

    Just so Tan understand what he's talking about: red herring: Something that draws attention away from the central issue. ad hominem: Appealing to personal considerations rather than to logic or reason. Both are false accusations. Asking for proof from Scripture on a Christian forum is...

    The reader may also be encouraged to analyse Drew’s words in accordance with Scripture, the arguments Drew presents are based on HIS analogy and not Scripture. Decide if you’re willing to allow analogy or the Scripture as your authority. Analogies are useful tools, but not a...

    You idea of another possibilities has been pointed out to you before as unscriptural. RED can prove what he believes by using scripture to back it, which you are unwilling to do. obtained an inheritance: Eph_1:18, Act_26:18, Deu_4:20; Deu_9:29; Deu_32:9, predestinated: Eph_1:5, Eph_1:13...

    Christianity and the Meaning of Life

    The problem with your posts Drew is the lack of definition of what you actually believe. What do you believe concerning the Bible? What you actually argued is contrary to what RED posted, so we must shift to you and the responsibility for proof now becomes all yours. Imagine if Drew posted...

Your very arguments are based on "secular reasoning" when you appeal to terms like "general premise" and "syllogisms". etc. God has put the world together in such a way that we effectively have no choice but to deploy "secular reasoning" principles (e.g...

    Is faith a condition?

    Josh, I understand. You then would disregard the passage I posted [with Greek supporting it] which lists faith as being apart of the gifts of God and the fruit of the Spirit? Or do you believe that God gives all men faith and then withdraws it so they backslide and fall away? 1Jo 2:19 They...

    Christianity and the Meaning of Life

    This is one of the "big 3" often sited, with the claim that God is trying (but not able) to save all men, but this passage isn’t speaking of salvation it's speaking of bring men to repentance (v. 10 the day of the Lord is in view). Many assume that ‘us-ward’ includes the...

    Is faith a condition?

    Is faith a condition?

    AV1611 posted this on another forum and it was a good read. "He that believes shall be saved, he that believes not shall be damned." Is not faith here the condition of the covenant? I answer, There is no person under heaven shall be saved till he have believed. This I grant; yet this will...
