    Predestination is misunderstood...

    Read Gen 22:8 in KJV ... much more impactful: And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together. Isaac's faith is also revealed in his allowing himself to be bound. He carried the wood (Gen 22:6) so he was strong ... and yet he...

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    God imputed righteousness to Abraham in Genesis 15:6 ... well before the birth of Isaac: Genesis 15:6 And he [Abraham] believed in the LORD; and he [God] counted it to him for righteousness. This was before the birth of Ishmael ... When God gave the covenant in which circumcision was a token...

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    righteousness is imputed to a person when he or she believes. God imputed righteousness to Abraham when Abraham believed: Genesis 15:6 And he [Abraham] believed in the LORD; and he [God] counted it to him [Abraham] for righteousness. Righteousness was not imputed to Abraham before Abraham...

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    Yes, HeIsHere, in agreement. However, it seems to me PaulThomson is talking about our day-to-day fellowship with the Father as opposed to God having saved us. Once we are born again ("saved"), we are children of God. He is our Father and we are His children and continue to be His children...

    hahahahahaha!!! arrogance much??? In agreement. John 13: 34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. .

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    This is nothing but a strawman argument. Everyone who has posted in this thread agrees that salvation is wholly of/by/from God. That you equate faith as some sort of "choice of men" does not transform faith into your stated claim. Again, this is nothing but a strawman argument. Because for...

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    I believe Moses and Elijah were "fully saved" by grace through faith during their lifetimes. We, in our day and time, are "fully saved" by grace through faith. The born again ones are sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the...

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    Romans 1:16 tells us that the gospel of Christ is the power of God unto salvation to every one who believes ... iow, it's not the faith of the one who believes that brings salvation, it is the gospel of Christ which is the power of God unto salvation. Folks who throw up the strawman that faith...

    Romans 2:1-4 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things. And...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    please provide Scripture which indicates: My bible tells me that the Lord Jesus Christ died for the whole world ... all descendants of Adam ... therefore, brightfame52 advocates universalism on the one hand. on the other hand, brightfame52 also claims that the "elect" are justified before...

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    In Genesis 3, we read about the slaying of the animal to replace Adam and Eve's feeble attempt to cover the shame of their sin. This is a shadow ... a type ... of the Lord Jesus Christ dying to cover the sin of Adam and Eve, as well as the descendants of Adam and Eve which were still in the...

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    If they did not know what God considered to be sin, there would be no reason for them to consider themselves or anyone else to be sinning against God. In Genesis 39:9 ... speaking of Joseph and Potiphar's wife, Joseph said it would be a sin against God: Genesis 39:9 There is none greater in...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    it is clear from Scripture that the Lord Jesus Christ died for the whole world ... all mankind ... all descendants of Adam ... you know the verses. Let's see who the Lord Jesus Christ was referring to: Matthew 7: 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    it is clear from Scripture that the Lord Jesus Christ died for the whole world ... all mankind ... all descendants of Adam ... you know the verses. ripping Romans 4:8 from the context within which the Author of Scripture has placed it in order to align Scripture to your erroneous dogma is poor...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    it is clear from Scripture that the Lord Jesus Christ died for the whole world ... all mankind ... all descendants of Adam: John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. John 3:16-17 For God so loved the...

    Who Justifieth the Ungodly

    I trust God ... which is why I reply to brightfame52 and provide the context of the verses which are ripped from Scripture. Scripture tells us faith by hearing, and hearing by the word of God (Romans 10:17). If people do not hear the word of God, then ruin comes from hearing the opinions of...
