If you want to stay with your theory of eternal deliverance is rewarded by your good works, then no amount of explaining will convince you otherwise. saved=delivered, according to Strong's concordance. Those that the Father called and gave to his Son to redeem them from their sins, were...

I am assuming that you do not believe that following God's commandments, and believing in spiritual things had anything to do with your eternal salvation, but are the after effects of being born again.

SabbathBlessing, I am enjoying conversing the scriptures with you endeavoring to seek the truth by harmonizing the scriptures. Very few, in Jesus's days, understood his teachings. His followers said it is a hard saying, who can understand it? I believe that holds true in this day and time...

Eternal salvation was accomplished on the cross for all of those that Jesus's Father gave to him, and he promised that he would lose none of them John 6:37-40.

Those lost sheep of the house of Israel, whom God has blinded to know the gospel will eventually repent. Romans 11:26, And so all Israel shall be saved, as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob. Concerning Matt 7:21-23, "the...

The truth of the gospel remains a mystery to those, of his people, whom he blinded to a knowledge of the truth. Saved=delivered, save=deliver, salvation=deliverance, according to Strong's concordance. If a person applies all of the salvation scriptures to eternal salvation, it will tend to...

If they are "his people" they have the promise of an inheritance of heaven. They have a lack of knowledge of the gospel of Jesus Christ, and are known as "the lost sheep of the house of Israel", Perish=death=separation. their lack of knowledge separates them from their fellowship with God...

I agree with you that the scriptures do not contradict each other, and rightly dividing the word is only found in the remnant if Israel. Redeemed Israel includes everyone that believes in a spiritual God, and worships him in spirit. God blinded the biggest part of Israel for their disobedient...

The point, I think he is making, the natural cannot hear and believe until he has been born again being one of God's sheep John 10:26.

When we are born again God puts the Holy Spirit within us. All of the old testament saints were born again in the same manner that the new testament saint are. God put his holy Spirit within Moses ( Isiah 63:11)

I didn't think you did, just checking.

Do you believe that the natural man, before he has been born again, can have faith in God's promise of a future redeemer?

Just curious, as you go by "The_old_guy"do you mind telling me how old you are? Most of my friends and relatives have gone to receive their inheritance of heaven. I will be 90 this coming January. I Romans 9:27, to my understanding, Israel does not reference the whole nation of Israel, but...

Thanks for your support. It does make a person wonder why he is participating in a bible debate forum. For many years I had the same problem with, seemingly, contradicting scriptures. After the Holy Spirit within me revealed that the scriptures do harmonize, I was converted to a better...

Matt 28:20 has a footnote reference to Acts 2:42. Notice in Acts 2:39 What people in the all nations of Matt 28:19 include, and it is who the promise is to even as many as the Lord our God shall call. As many as the Lord God has called out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation...

I have a question. Have you ever sinned against God?

I an sorry that you feel that way. When I read your post, It sounded like you were really interested in understanding the truth of Christ's doctrine. I spent most of my life trying to harmonize the scriptures without them, seemingly, contradicting each other. One of my problems was that I...

You are embracing the false doctrine of eternal salvation by works. The scriptures that contain references to salvation's that you are quoting, for the most part, are referencing deliverance's that the born again child of God receives by doing good works. Use your Strong's concordance to...

I suppose a person can find commentaries to support any false doctrine out there. That is why I use only the scriptures to prove themselves with the help of Strong's concordance. If all of the scriptures do not harmonize, you are not understand the doctrine of Jesus Christ.
