In verse 18 it's both the means and the content, "preaching of the cross", that are mis-perceived as foolishness. In verse 21 it's just the means, "preaching", that is mis-perceived as foolishness. People require and seek to unveil what is veiled, and as a result never find "the cross". The...

Justification is a legal term. It means 'pronounce or show to be just'. It doesn't mean 'cause to become just''. Anyone or anything can justify someone or something (whether rightly or wrongly). Publicans justify God: And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified God, being...

Husband: I time you. Wife: I time you too. Husband: Well, I’ve got to go to work. Wife: Don’t you want breakfast first? Husband: I don’t have love for that. :-)

Universal: For God so loved every human - including Esau, Pharoah, Judas, the beast, the false prophet, and every human who will be spending eternity in the lake of fire – that He gave His only begotten Son for each one of them Particular: so that any one of them who believes in Him during...

Yes.

Do you agree with this? So the last [to be hired] shall be first [in hourly pay-rate], and the first [to be hired] last [in hourly pay-rate]: for many be called [to work], but few chosen [for the higher hourly pay-rate]. Matt 20:16 (KJV) Meaning that some of the 12 disciples may not sit on...

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, ... or peril, ... ? Romans 8:35 (KJV) Once a person is saved, they're saved for eternity. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things...

The Pilgrim Church by Edmund Hamer Broadbent In this classic work Edmund Broadbent guides you through the trials, tribulations and triumphs in church planting through the centuries. He shows that there have indeed been relatively unknown and misunderstood groups of believers since the close of...

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz The will of God still isn't mentioned in the verse.

The will of God isn't mentioned in this verse.

If you think these verses prove that the heart isn't distinct from the will, you'll have to explain how it is you think that.

The earth revolving around the sun instead of Mars "depends not on human will" either. But that doesn't change the fact that man's will is free, enabled, functioning, and sovereign at all times regarding choices that are subjected to it. For it is God which worketh in you both [for you] to...

God works in this verse. The saint wills and works in this verse.

It means that this particular local church will cease to exist as a local church. The individuals in that church who are saved continue to be saved.

It sounds like you need to apply 1 Corinthians 5, where you have a responsibility TO judge. 11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one...

The body goes back to the dust. Adam never needed to be saved before the fall. He didn't have a "saved status" to loose. He had an "offspring of God" status; and he never lost it. Unsaved means not having been saved. What kind of relation are you referring to?

Hell isn't the analogy; uselessness is. A withered, non fruit-bearing branch is useless. So is an eternally secure child of God who doesn't abide in Christ.
