    Freewill religion is the Man of Sin !

    If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. The context here is that choice always exists. Grace is power, not just a gift- the power to choose correctly. If I put gas in my car, it is I who...

    Freewill religion is the Man of Sin !

    This is a categorical error. Chosing to receive is not the same as creating. Logical fallacies- they're not just for breakfast anymore.

    Freewill religion is the Man of Sin !

    Interesting theory. ἀντίχριστος (ande christos) most literally means "in the place of Christ." Humans put alot in the place of Christ. Could be false religion, could be pride in so-called true faith. Could be reputation, affection, mammon, comfort... I do find it interesting that many...

    Justified by the faith of Jesus Christ.

    Excellent OP. Amazing what difference one word can make, ITO theological implications. For those that argue that it is our faith IN Christ, I ask you, who is the author and source of faith? Is it not the Christ? It is His faith- all of it. Or faithfulness, if you prefer.

    Freewill religion is the Man of Sin !

    Deut 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, [that] I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: Choices are limited, but they are choices.
