    Understanding God’s election

    That's how I believe it was done! Everyone was created in love. Everyone created to know and love the Father! All done while limiting himself to being God's perfect human Soul. And, his soul was not created! His Soul was uniquely begotten by the Father! Begotten before time began. So...

    Understanding God’s election

    They taught the needed details to be able to put it together. While Jesus was on earth, having denied himself of his powers of Deity? Was he omniscient in his experience while being as a man? The answer is 'no.' Philippians 2:6-8 Who, being in very nature God, did not consider...

    Understanding God’s election

    We are created in His image. TULIP dehumanizes God's purpose in having our thinking and feelings towards others handcuffed. What they can not understand? And, many of us who do not agree with TULIP? Is how was it possible for God to create our souls? Without knowing how we would choose...

    Understanding God’s election

    The Law was given for the saved to live by. It was also given to teach all that they are sinners by defining sins. That is why the Law ultimately demanded atonement. The Law was not given to get men saved by following it. You were either a good believer (followed the Law). Blessed Jews in...

    Understanding God’s election

    All the Father gives to Him will come to Him? YES! The Father only gives to the Son those whom the Father was able to draw completion to Himself! But the Father is invisible and can not be perceived by men in a concrete way. It's a subconscious state of being. So how does the Father reveal...

    Not just Pharaoh... It concerns believers in the church as well. Do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the wilderness. Hebrews 3:8 See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from...

    Understanding God’s election

    When it's properly understood, yes. Hebrews 3:12-14 See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God. But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s...

    Understanding God’s election

    Irresistible grace (the one which I just described) does not guarantee one will believe. Such grace only guarantees an individual the freedom to believe, if he wishes to. While the person is being drawn, God will impose the grace needed. Calvinists insist God's drawing will guarantee belief. It...

    Understanding God’s election

    That act you speak of was God giving us grace to keep out flesh out of the picture, while our soul was made free to deal with the Gospel message we were given. If grace were not present our soul would have remained oppressed, and unable to grasp the words given to us to think with. No soul...

    Understanding God’s election

    Yet He says to us.... (Isaiah 55:8-9) “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." Knowing what that means...
