    Is man capable of both good and evil ?

    When ever anyone simply throws out a list of proof texts without any exegesis you just know they are going to be in error! Just look at eph 2:8-9 and ask yourself how can it possibly be saying what you want it to when it clearly says that we are saved, by grace through faith, which is God's...

    Calvinism---Why bother to evangelize

    The Calvinist evangelises because God has told us to, and also because God has chosen to use us as the emans of bringing people to salvation. When you think about it Calvinist are the only ones who can evangelise without being crushed. If I, for a second, felt that the burden was on my shoulders...

    The Insecurity of Calvinism

    Funny, how a post that starts with these words, "if one studies the Calvinistic doctrinal system" then goes on to raise a strawmen arguement, by denying the experiential element of calvinistic teaching. It seems my freind, you think there is no teaching of 'perserverence of the saints' in the...

    Christian Conditionalism

    Seems to have it's source in greek philosphy, and a basic misunderstanding of the age of to come. We have to bear in mind that the resurrection is physical thing. We will be body and soul in the eternal kingdom. When the bible speaks of everlasting life, and everlasting punishment, such...

    Who is Jesus

    Shall we go through them one by one! OK I do not know what actual means, perhaps this is a refernce to John 1:1, but it needs some explanation. Yes, but you do understand what 'only begotten' means. It relates to the position of privilidge and not natural birth. Isaac is referred to as...

    Question

    Well considering Christainity is the full revelation of faith in the one true God, and we see the beginning of that revelation in God's dealings with the first man, I wonder where the question is coming from? Lnowledge of the one true God, and the way of salvation is as old as the world is.

    Has the Internet Changed Christianity?

    bear in mind that local churches are usually made up of people that share a lot in common, they usually all have a similar creed, they all live in roughly the same area, and people that disagree with them strongly have either learnt to keep quiet, or they have moved on. Now compare that to a...

    What's Wrong With The NIV Bible ?

    Intereting, a verse that supports the concept of the tenacity of the text, the whole basis of production of the maodern critical texts. However, a real problem text for the KJVonly camp, because it suggests that the church has failed to do this for 1600 years, and then rejected the efforts of a...

    What's Wrong With The NIV Bible ?

    I haven't copied the whole peace, but it does need to be commented upon, the NIV is not based upon the WH text, but NA27, there are over 600 differences betwen the two texts. As to accusations regarding either his beliefs or those of his father, should we simply accept the, or should we...

    What's Wrong With The NIV Bible ?

    Only if they ignore the textual notes in their bibles! Howveer surely the question is does the bible actually say that fasting is needed or was this an extension of piety that found it's way into the later text. The point being, if the original, inerrant and infallible autograph did not mention...

    What's Wrong With The NIV Bible ?

    The following is written with my tongue firmly in my cheek, but it does make my point. Romans 8:34 KJV "Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us." NIV "Who then is...

    Did the Master truly forgive?

    Perhaps we shuld not be forcing the parable to have meanings beyond the main point of the illsutration that Jesus was making in context. The point is, unless we forgive, we not be forgiven. Remember the master is not actually God, it is a story about a man, therefore the forgiveness of the...

    total depravity

    I do not see it in my bible at all :D, however the fact that a term is not found in the scripture does not prevent us from using it to explain a biblical truth does it? Or do you shy away from terms like 'trinity' for the same reason? Firstly you have to demonstrate that it is a...
