The gift of tongues ceasing has been gone over already. I wanted to concentrate on the OT aspect of the sign. I don't wish to debate why I believe the sign gift of tongues is not for today. I did that already here...
Joel's prophecy will not be completely fulfilled until the millennial kingdom and the final judgment. But Peter, by using it, shows that Pentecost was a pre-fulfillment, a taste of what will happen in the millennial kingdom when the Spirit is poured out on all flesh. In Joel 2:28 it says "And it...

Do you want to tackle this? It doesn't look too difficult. We can even give an official answer if you like.
1st question.
This was the best list I could find. The first one listed too.
I put this topic in the reformed forum for a reason. While it could be an interesting topic on any forum, by choosing this forum I was hoping for a reformed discussion on this topic. Feel free to start the same thread on in the theology forum and take it in another redirection if you like. It...
JOHN MACARTHUR: I was just going to add, the process of justification, and it is a process in the Catholic faith; starts with infant baptism. They say that justification is initiated as a process at infant baptism, and it progresses through life, based upon what you "do" with infused grace...
Do you believe that in the Bible, words like "all" and "world" and "every man" always mean every last single thing or person unless specifically limited (e.g. 1 John 3:3) OR do you recognize that sometimes in the Bible, words like "all" means "all kinds of" (1 Timothy 6:10) and "world" means...

"The cross alone, however, does not justify us . . . We are justified not only by the death of Christ, but also by the life of Christ. Christ's mission of redemption was not limited to the cross. To save us He had to live a life of perfect righteousness. His perfect, active...
II. "BUT ELECTION ISN'T FAIR!"
Some years ago I was at a weekend retreat with a group of university students. During a discussion period someone raised the subject of predestination and election. One girl asked, "Where does the Bible clearly teach that God sovereignly chooses some people to be...

"The real issue in the creation/evolution debate is not the existence of God. The real issue is the nature of God. To think of evolution as basically atheistic is to misunderstand the uniqueness of evolution. Evolution was not designed as a general attack against theism. It was designed as a...
Dabney's: "Objections To the Supralapsarian"
Objections To the Supralapsarian.
But we object more particularly to the Supralapsarian scheme.
(a) That it is erroneous in representing God as having before His mind, as the objects of predestination, men conceived in posse only; and in making...
I like the, the New King James Version (NKJV) because it updated many of the outdated words from the original King James Version. Like, instead of 'charity', it used 'love'. It also corrected a few translations that I agree where not accurate. I never did care for the "ye's" and Yeah's" anyways...
