So it’s ok for people to falsely accuse a brother but it’s not ok for someone to ask people to stop. And after they have been asked Numerous times It’s not ok to threaten to report?
My beef is not again you. Never has been. It’s against the false accusers. I was tying to politely show you how they were accusing and you evidently did not take that very well

Applies to you as well.
Jesus gave us power to become sons of God. How do we become sons of God? Tell me.
I AGREE. After we recieve Jesus we are regenerated, sealed by the Holy spirit until the day of redemption ( Adoption) Predestined to it After believing. Elected for purpose and service . We are not saved by works or our own righteousness.

It is not about you, the only thing we are discussing is your beliefs and how in part it lines up with Reformed dogma.
Why is that a problem when you listen to their teachers, I am confused?

oh listen. you are just worked up because of what eternally said.
you have said many things that sound very Calvinistic and that is what people are asking about and what you deny yet you continue to misrepresent scripture
this is not anything new in this forum. that is what goes on here
no one has called you names...calling or saying someone is Calvinist...is usually because of what they write and so what?
as it is, where is the post in which I stated you were Calvinist? I went back to the beginning of where I began responding in this thread and if no one else thought you had Calvinist leanings I would have anyway
that, is not a reportable offence despite what eternally has said
he is being a bully. so we have that too
but again, where did I say YOU are a big bad Calvinist? which post please
Regeneration . Which I've said from the beginning ( not the beginning of time beginning lol
)Who gave us the power to become sons of God, and how was that sonship accomplished?
You already said we become sons through faith. So to be given power to become sons means given power to become sons of God through faith
Faith is granted. Just like the passages in acts 11 and Philippians I posted earlier stated
5Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
Same point here. Titus 3.5
I said we become sons through the new birth not Adoption .

I have asked actually
maybe cut the swagger and post in a normal fashion
if you 'want' someone to see something, threatening (for no reason other than you are disagreed with IMO) is not how to get their attention
I don't agree with you
you see one thing and several here see another
so you need to report that? take a chill pill
I know about the thread that I would not post in because of the nastiness of it and I know what happened and who was banned
this is nothing like that thread

listen...people are not going to be banned here despite what you might have been told
I am still waiting for the proof of what you say
I know you will not find it
you don't own the rights to this discussion. it's not your thread and even he does not own the rights
further, saying you sound Calvinistic is not misrepresenting scripture. in fact, it might be misrepresenting you, but you keep posting double meanings so you stop crying wolf
in relation to gifts , after salvation .
3¶For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
4For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:
5So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.
6Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith ;
7Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;
