Read Hebrews 1:1-2. “God, who at various times and in various ways. Spoke in times past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these LAST DAYS. Spoken to us by His SON (Jesus). We are in the LAST DAYS. God use to speak to people in different ways—directly out of the sky, indirectly through...

I am not at all I’m sorry if I gave you the impression that I was upset. I am not upset. I use caps for EMPHASIS, not because I am mad or upset. I am passionate about my faith and the truth of the scriptures and Jude tells us to contend “earnestly for the truth, but sometimes I’m afraid I...

Because sin entered the world—regardless of who brought it in—once it was there, it was inevitable that we would suffer the CONSEQUENCES of sin. We have to live in a sinful world because of Adams sin. It’s like an alcoholic father who abuses his children and does not provide for their...

The context surrounding a verse is so important. Verses are not little “islands”. Sitting all by themselves in a “sea” of words. The context of a passage is necessary to get a true understanding of the passage. In John 10, Jesus is using an analogy of a shepherd and his sheep. Obviously...

“Something called the ‘fallen nature’ that was a side effect of eating the forbidden fruit is no where in the Bible that I know of. Scripture that says this?? This sounds an awful lot like man’s reasoning—not God’s. Ezekiel 18 plainly says that sin is NOT INHERITED. We do not inherit sin...

If there was no sin in the world until Adam and Eve sinned, then they did not have a “sinful nature. They were pure and innocent just like a new born baby. Ezekiel 18 is very clear that sin is NOT inherited. We do not herit sin from our parents. We did NOT inherit sin from Adam. Ezekiel 18...

John 10:29 is not teaching that one of Jesus’s sheep cannot leave the fold. All John 10:29 is saying is that no one can steal them from him. And the ones he is talking about are in that context and they are called “thieves and robbers” in verses 1, 8 , and 10; “strangers” in verse 5; and...

I agree they are all connected. But I chose to talk about the “Lost son.” They all teach the same lesson: the lesson is showing the rejoicing of the FATher God and all the angels in heaven when a spiritually lost person repents and comes back to God. When the lost person is restored to God...

What’s proof—of what? I’ve just shown that John 1029 is not talking about “sheep leaving the fold of God”. It’s talking about “thieves and robbers”, “strangers”, and “hirelings” and anyone else who would steal or harm the sheep. JOHN 10:29 IS NOT TALKING ABOUT GOD’s SHEEP LEAVING THE FOLD OF...

Where exactly is that in the Bible? The part where one cannot lose salvation? Are you sure you are not just listening to men? Of course salvation is secure for those who are “faithful”. Revelation 2:10 teaches that. There is no scripture that says “one cannot lose salvation.” But I have a...

First of all, I do not know what your “3 parts” are so I cannot answer. And second, I am dealing with the part of the parable that shows a child of God can leave God, throw away his inheritance (heaven), repent, come back to God and be restored to his former state of salvation. This is a...

And are you God that you can know they were never saved? Every situation is different and unless God says they were not saved, you are being presumptuous by assuming to know. There are many, many scriptures that teach a saved person CAN lose their salvation. Too many for me to throw those all...

Are you referring to John 10:29? I know that verse is used by ALL Calvinist for this doctrine. Jesus, in this entire chapter, has been talking about false “shepherds”—-“thieves and robbers” in verse 1, verse 8, and verse 10. He talks about “strangers” in verse 5. He talks about “hirelings”...

There are some good ones in here that I missed. Thank you.

I have posted 22 scriptures that refute this. The parable of the prodigal son, TOLD BY JESUS, is enough by itself to show that what you said is not true. The parable of the prodigal son is a story about a father (God) who has a child that turns his back on his father and his home and throws...

yes, Paul wrote SOME things hard to understand—but NOT EVERYTHING.. Most of the Bible is “plain”. Easy to understand. I’ve been told it is written on a sixth grade level. I don’t think “understanding” is the problem. The atheist does not have a problem understanding Genesis 1:1 - “In the...

You are correct in that the word “sabbath” means “rest”. Hebrews 4:9 says the people of God (us) have a “rest” too, and it is heaven where we cease from our work. But there is no command for New Testament Christians to keep the seventh day holy. Think about it—the command to keep the seventh...

I’m surprised you would think the early church fathers were Catholic when the Catholic Church was not founded until the 6th century—590 AD when Greggory the 1 became the first “pope.” Anyone can claim anything and I am aware of the “claims” of the Catholic Church. They are the oldest...
