I have never met anyon so desperate to protect his or herself at all costs,
just like your other slanderous comments, I have told you time and time again, I do not target you, 90 % of the time I even say anything to you is to call you out for liking about what others spbelieve.
but hey, for some reason I have made such an impact on you you feel you have to attack me to make yourself feel good, so maybe I have done some good, and God can some day use that,
you have my prayers,

It can only be true if your salvation depends on something or someone other than Jesus Christ and the eternal blood covenant.
Scripture speaks of adoption and redemption in eternal terms.
For the cause of Christ

Amen! Romans 8:30 - Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified. *ALL of them.

Sadly to some, all does not mean all, eternal does not mean eternal, never does not mean never. You have to wonder why God use these terms if he did not mean it, was it an error on the interpreter part or what?

Best part of waking up...or so I've heard.
Ooh I have to wake up with a nice cup of English Tea, followed by weetabix or cornflakes.
Although my favourite is a cup of tea with poached eggs
Funny thing is...they NEVER LOSE IT....but those who believe saved by grace dia faith lose it when we pass gas.....they are such hypocrites.....deceived and spreading their deception like cancer.....
I think You have just fallen foul of yourself.
You gonna fall in your sword?
Its offensive to you and malicious that some make claims of what you believe and it's judging.
Now lets look at what you also say.
"In spite of what hundreds of easy believists say"
You are judging people because of what others in Christ believe.
But me thinks you don't actually believe the easy believists are not in Christ.
Just as malicious and offensive and judgmental.
I don't know you but I have read some of your posts and I won't comment on them.
All I ask is for you to is to say what you think easy believism is to you.
Set aside OSAS because you obviously think easy believism or should we greasy grace leads to this.
So humour me if you don't mind, what leads to being saved to not saved.

Eg -
Calling someone a liar is a very strong accusation. You obviously do it so many timesis does not phase you. And calling a christian brother a liar is equivalent to saying they do not
know Jesus. So friend, I challenge you before the Lord, if you have something against me, you
have to declare it or be quiet. And if you have nothing, you are sinning yourself.
There are always spiritual consequences to these words. If you want to walk as a hypocrite and
an apostate that is fine by me, but claiming to speak for the Lord and use His word as if you are
capable of this is another thing.
The trouble with sinning against someone, is if you do not resolve it you are sinning against the
Lord and denying the very salvation you claim to hold so dear.
So please do not try and play the innocent, God is not mocked. How will you stand on the day
of judgement, when clear scripture you neither answer nor take to heart but attack and slander
His faithful people. Do you have a heart or any reality, or is it just self serving excuses?
This is how Paul describes it
My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me. 5 Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart. At that time each will receive their praise from God.
1 Cor 4:4-5
The above is an example of provocative, accusing then saying I do not attack you etc.
Why bother with such obvious deception? Why try and take lots of different approaches
as if it is not obvious the intention is just to find a weakness?
I wonder what drives a heart so much to pursue this. lol.
It reminds me of the continual pursuit the enemies of Christ sought to find a way through,
as if you can stand against the living God. It must have frustrated them so, because all
the previous enemies they managed to strike down and defeat. And in the end they crucified
Christ, but still He came back with greater depth and power to bring the Kingdom of heaven
to earth, and still this is true todays as it always has been.
Christ is the victory and the cross is His way, through suffering He bring us comfort so we can
share His comfort to those who are likewise suffering in the world of trouble and defeat.
Praise the Lord in the Highest and peace to men on earth. For until the day of judgement arrives
there is still hope to find redemption of ones soul, Amen.
