Your thread seems to be asking about "Once saved always saved." Just forget all the Calvinism and Arminian theologies. The person who has faith in Jesus Christ and his atonement is saved. The person who does not have faith is not saved. That is what the Bible tells us.

Something is not going right here . . . If you truly repented you would not be just keeping on sinning and sinning. I Johne 3:9 No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God.

Amen! This is the best post here on this issue. I could not have said it better. It is absolutely great to be careful at how we present and use the Word of God. But how you post Scripture is not a moral issue. We don't need a list of rules of how to post on this forum. If you don't like...

thanks Penned for posting the video - excellent informative watch

Jesus often said, "Come and follow me." But I think being a part of a Bible believing church that together worships God, and fellowships with one another is much needed.

This I like! Being a part of a different kingdom with a view much larger than just this world!

The church I pastor would use the lot in certain situations to ordain a leader/minister. We would typically take a vote of members when we need to ordain a minister. If there is a clear nominee from these votes that person will be ordained. If there are two or more people with identical or...

Yes, indeed. One thing that I often limit God in is thinking that He cannot help me live completely above the power of sin today! Can He? YES

The real issue is not the Bible being removed from public schools: if our country is to have freedom of religion, then our public institutions should not promote one religion over another. The public spaces/institutions should not promote religion, but neither should they keep students/people...

Is there Scripture that says this? Or is this a man-made doctrine based on someone's interpretation of Scripture?
