Rom 1: 18-23: "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation...

According to my understanding of scripture: There is no absolute free will as there is no absolute preordination. The truth is found somewhere between the two and that's why there is such confusion regarding this topic. If our every act and thought has been preordained by the Lord, that would...

In New Jerusalem, there will be a single forbidden fruit, if you will. Of which there is no forgiveness , neither in this world, nor in the world to come. I suspect that the Lord will have a long talk with anyone who might consider partaking of it, before hand. But the point is, that as long...

With the translator in mind, 1 Cor 8:2, "And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know."

If that were true, every translation would agree with each other. In every language, words have different meanings than that of another language. 66 holy men as moved by the Holy Spirit gave us the holy scriptures. Translators are not necessarily holy men and are not inspired by the Spirit...

1 Jn 3: 18-24: My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth. And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him. For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. Beloved, if our heart...

I don't understand what you mean. Perhaps I'm too old. : ( @me

To my thinking, scripture is every word inspired in the orig language...

Heb 10: 1-4: For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect. For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers...

People in the lake of fire will be those who did not respond to the Lord's call with a godly sorrow and with repentance.

Many believe in Jesus without repentance and are without faith. Faith is that form of believing that is authored by Jesus, based upon Spirit illuminated scripture and always produces works appropriate to repentance in those who have it.

Only if they responded to the Lord's offer of forgiveness when called...

By saying, "He that believeth on me," would have to include all those who believe on him, would it not?

Jesus died for the sins of the world. Those who repent and obtain faith from Jesus, the author of our faith, are the ones who receive forgiveness. I think of it like this; Jesus is an infinite being and an infinite atonement is required for forgiveness. So we could describe it thus: Jesus an...

Jesus said in Jn 14: 12: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. Jesus is still with the Father, is he not? In 1 Cor 13: 8-10: Charity never faileth: but whether there...

Lu 21: 24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. Lu 21: 28-33 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your...

2 Pet 3: 9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

The Hebrew word for was is the same word for became...

James tells us by the Spirit in Jas 1: 13-15: Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth...

Is 14: 18-20 All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house. But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase...
