awe yes we do show are trueness 🙂 hope you get over it soon, but then your grudges would suggest not
No Grudges on my end.

The Lord Jesus Christ died for ALL. And ALL have equal privilege and equal opportunity at His FREE gift.

Nothing personal on my end. Just the wonderful truth of the Lord Jesus Christ........That I will defend.

It isn't personal for me because I didn't come up with it.( None could.)

When it becomes personal? That is a very good indication that that person doesn't have THE truth. They have a personal opinion.
 
you mean this praise 🙂

Psalms 18:2
So many wonderful Psalms to use as a basis of praise and worship!!!

Psalm-34-7-Hebrews1-14s.png

Psalm 34 verse 7 Hebrews 1 verse 14 The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, and he delivers them. Are not the angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?

That's funny because you can only see the light of the Gospel if the lord is your heart, all tho you could ask if your unsure he's there buttering you 🤩
so judging by your thumbs down to this again @LTTexan I wonder do you want to share, well it's a bit disappointing seeing as you said you like sound doctrine, now your telling a nice person to shut up

Well I'm not here to be you enemy just want to share really, so could you share a sound doctrine on free will or not ? I mean you have stated you like sound doctrine

And this one. Arguably the most praise worthy.

John 3:16
“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.

The Lord Jesus Christ lived and died for every single person who has ever lived!!.....The most astounding and mind blowing thing for a human to wrap their mind around. Some struggle with this marvelous Truth, but I pray that one day their eyes be opened.

He made salvation accessible to each and every person who has ever lived! Amazing! Acts 16:31

you said you like sound doctrine
I think that means he likes ear tickling...

Since we know that the Bible does not teach that man's will is free. Jesus sets us free. Praise the LORD!!!

Here is another lovely song for you, Jordon...

Peacebysherriyoungward.png

Peace, be still; Lay all your worries down. Be still, oh my soul, For our God, is in control. And if God is for us, Then whom shall I fear? And our God is for us; So lay down, be still. He is God. Hallelujah, our God has overcome. Hallelujah, our Lord, Jesus Christ, has won.

Some people are here with one sole purpose....

To obscure sound doctrinal thinking.

The spirit they move with can not be from God, though they know how to create an impression (to the uninformed) that they are.

I believe you are correct. I usually chalk it up to unwittingly following friends, emotions and charismatic personalities.

I have never seen a bunch that are so antagonistic to the Lord Jesus Christ and His Gospel.

Yep people can think all sorts of things but can you control what you think 🤩

It amazing what you believe at the flick of a switch, in my humble opinion
 
33,000 posts......Hardly a flick of a switch.

And you are not here for doctrine. You disrupt, police and whine......change my mind.
Well if i take your point of view from your own reasoning, personally I wonder if actually the truth is concerning you or condemning you 🤔

The Lord Jesus Christ died for ALL sin. The veil is rent....ALL can now come to Him.

All have equal privilege and equal opportunity at His FREE gift of eternal life.


Believe in the Lord Jesus and you shall be saved, you and your household( This TRUTH goes for you and EVERYONE else.)
 
Some are too smart on one level to be so stupid on another, to be left with an excuse.

God will sort it out.
Some really think that will not ever happen because God lets them get away with so much.

Christ did die for all.
But not all can be saved, because God knows which ones will want to believe.
And, the ones who do not want to believe, they can not be saved for that very reason.

There is a fine line there that needs to be balanced.

This is called believing what you want

So when you say Jesus died for your sins I struggle to believe, that your belief of this scripture shows in your beliefs, as your always leading with your gob and not your heart

Because if you believed the truth you wouldn't be such a hater spreading lies about me.

If I were going into the finer details of the explanation. I would explain it as, some will not be saved because God knows who will not believe. The unbeliever has been given everything they need to make a choice for or against the Lord Jesus for their salvation, but they choose against Him.

It's not that they can't be saved, it's that they will not be saved. Everyone is afforded equal privilege and equal opportunity by the Grace of God.....even the sinner He knows will not believe.
