There is no "Josiah-Jesus problem". This is a problem in your own head. It is you who brought Jesus into this discussion. King Josiah was not sinless. No one is saying that King Josiah was sinless. No one. But the Bible does call Josiah, Zacharias and Elizabeth as righteous and walking...

Does quoting the following make me guilty of calling God a liar? Luke 1:5-6 5 In the days of Herod, king of Judea, there was a priest named Zacharias, of the division of Abijah; and he had a wife from the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth. 6 They were both righteous in the sight of...

In your zeal to defend your belief in mankind's total depravity you have been blinded to the absurdity of your complaint against Nehemiah6. He is not claiming or even implying that King Josiah led a sinless life.

What did I miss?

I use a dictionary to "prove" the meaning of words. You should try it. You should show some humility and admit it was a terrible choice of words. I understand your viewpoint and I believe you are sincere. Yours truly, Lamar The bearer of false witness.

That was Darth Vader in Episode IV "A New Hope" at the 1hour and 34 minute point. On the "Touche" --- Morticia, you spoke French!!!

It is you who chose to use the word. You should have checked the meaning of the word before using it. Predestiny, or predestination, means something has been decided in advance, especially by divine command or fate, and cannot be changed. For example, you might say someone is predestined to be...

Cannot lower my shield of faith. Not with Yoda shooting those flaming darts.

Once again Yoda. There is no do without try. Please try to understand.

Dictionary Definitions from Oxford Languages fatalism noun the belief that all events are predetermined and therefore inevitable. "fatalism can breed indifference to the human costs of war" You chose the word, I am simply showing you what it means.

To mankind Reformed Theology is simply a fate beyond our control. So yes Reformed Theology is fatalism, hence the name.

Really. They are deflections because I refused to acknowledge that you are correct?

Deflections? In what way are they deflections?

Nehemiah6 is simply quoting the scripture, nothing more. Here is the verse: 2 Kings 22:2 New International Version 2 He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord and followed completely the ways of his father David, not turning aside to the right or to the left. 2 Kings 22:2 Common English...

Who are you, Yoda? There is no "do" without "try". Luke 12:58 New International Version As you are going with your adversary to the magistrate, try hard to be reconciled on the way, or your adversary may drag you off to the judge, and the judge turn you over to the officer, and the officer...

Don't be absurd! Nehemiah6 is not claiming King Josiah was sinless! Nehemiah6 is simply quoting the following: Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem thirty-one years. His mother’s name was Jedidah daughter of Adaiah; she was from Bozkath. 2 He did what was...

You seem to be missing the point of what Nehemiah6 is attempting to make. He is simply stating that mankind can strive to obey God. This is after all our purpose/duty in life. Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 New International Version 13 Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear...

It seems you are the one who has already made up their mind. I am happy to answer questions on this issue, you are refusing to do the same. This is a very important subject but you are simply tiptoeing around it. I will ask the question again. Would you accept the reasoning that you have...

Okay but what about the question? It seems you should be able to answer it rather easily. I can answer it. The answer is "no", I would not accept this reasoning from you or anyone else. So again, would you accept your reasoning from anyone else regardless of the person or subject matter...

You are lying. You do not have these powers or abilities. If you did, you would be doing them and certainly not telling us about how you can do them. Falsely claiming that the Holy Spirit has given you supernatural talents is blasphemy.
