All the passages you cited? Speak of people who had been drawn successfully. Romans 1:18-25 reveals those who were drawn, but refused the drawing. Here is vs 21-15. For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile, and...

It does not say that inheriting the sin of our father is like Adam's sin. You are not going to jail because your grandfather robbed a bank. That would be a sin of your fathers... But, you are a sinner, because all men are sinners by the inherited fallen nature originating with Adam's fall. When...

There is a simple reason we are all born condemned. Our human father was Adam. Adam passed down the sin nature that is in our flesh, which he acquired when he fell. Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have...

The way the calvinists keep driving home their issue about we were dead, and unable to be made able by God to believe? That God must regenerate men first before we can believe? Is a new angle on making God out to be Dr. Frankenstein.

You have proven what kind of person you are..... That is what I have been after. Thank you.

Jesus taught Jews how Jews should have been living under the Law. They called him "Rabbi." The Gospels are so beautiful in what it teaches, we too easily miss that what Jesus taught was to Israel, and about how the Jews should have been living at that time! It was the Apostle Paul that later...

WEAR EM OUT RUFUS! STICK TO YOUR FALSE DOCTRINE TILL YOU WEAR EM OUT! ;) ...... ever ask who's cheering you on? ..............

I only mocked your idea, Rufus. Ohhh, now? Should we christen you..........? "Pope Rufus?" Please.. Stop equating yourself to God. You simply don't understand salvation by grace. Calvinism tells you what you naturally 'want to believe.' TULIP comforts you in knowing how much...

May I take five giant steps forward? ;) It's fun being a kid acting like an adult.

Calvinists do not see the 'same way' in the same way... They like to argue and stay stuck on that level. Never growing much beyond that. And, it's so easy to argue about what they do not understand... But, think they do. God sovereignly had me say that.

They are the only ones who could be saved the right way....

Was that a question I should answer? How can I know that it was a question?

Any other rule?

If what you are saying is accurate and true? Then? Only those who find themselves following Calvinism have been saved.

How come, after responding to a post of yours, you say people keep not answering your questions.... so often?

Dead? Like in..... "But the widow who lives for pleasure is dead even while she lives." 1 Tim 5:6 That warning was was written to the church. To believers. Why was she dead? What kind of death, though saved? ..............
