    Hermeneutics: Interpreting Scripture

    The starting point of my understanding was when He transformed me on 9-29-13 and resurrected my dead spirit and reonnected it to His Spirit to open my eyes and guide me to all truth. My conversion wasn't Bible + my choice = "Born Again" I did in fact do this, and even thought I was a Christian...

    Saved from what ?

    Here are a few text that tell us we are BORN in sin. But you will have a problem with this if you can't deal with these things honestly in good faith. If all you want is to be right and with an argument over a brother in Christ, then you can act blind to these things, but if you are truly in...

    Saved from what ?

    Are you arguing the point? Are you saying we weren't born spiritually disconnected from God? Make your case teacher.

    Saved from what ?

    I mean we are born in Adam, who was cut off from God with Eve and spiritually died in the fall. Therefore ALL that are born from Adam are born this way from birth. Spiritually dead and cut off from God. Clear enough? Do you really not know what I'm talking about? Do the things of the spirit...

    Saved from what ?

    What we are ultimately saved from is separation from God. We are born spiritually cut off from God and there is only 1 way to be saved from eternal separation from Him, being born again through Jesus. Hell is separation forever with no hope of reestablishment.

    Fundamentalism and Particular Baptists

    first off I agree with you 100% I think this take nails the proper spirit to approach this issue. So please bare with me for the rest of my comment. I SO can't stand the "people chosen for hell" criticism at all. I'm not saying "you" push it, were pushing it, or really anything about you at...

    Salvation Lost? Really?

    Nope, you're wrong and speak of a weak God that does not save in power. If you believe we can be spiritually resurrected by the Creator of everything, in power, and then He will kill our spirit or cut us back off, or even allow His child to be cut off from Him, you're wrong. It is OSAS 1000%...

    Why do some people believe and some do not?

    Yep sure did, according to Gods perfect plan. So God never harden Pharaohs heart? God had nothing at all to do with His perfect plan right? Man your thirst to prove Gods weakness is a obsession and a sickness, honestly a character flaw. You just can't stop lifting up man and lowering God in...

    Why do some people believe and some do not?

    Well I hope I wouldn't be arguing this point with you. I wasn't really trying to "correct" you on something you have wrong about the gospel. I was just agreeing with Magenta saying that the verse is more than than "just allegory". I was saying that it is speaking of an actual spiritual event...

    Understanding God’s election

    Your arrogance and condescension is a very poor reflection on Jesus. Just from an outside perspective. You are not being respectful or even arguing in good faith. You're behaving more like a cult adherent and making divisions for no other reason than self aggrandizement. I'm not telling you this...

    Why do some people believe and some do not?

    By His grace when He grants us repentance and He resurrects, or really brings to life for the first time, the dead spirit we were born with and reconnects us to Him, to the Spirit to transform us and lead us to all truth in Him. That's when. Has that not happen to you? Have you been born again...

    Why do some people believe and some do not?

    No I agree with Magenta, it's more. It's not of the flesh, but that "flesh nature" is cut away in spirit by His Spirit actually. This is not just figurative at all, and only those who have been born again, or spiritually resurrected and reconciled to His Spirit can know this. If we are still...

    Grace or Works - For It Cannot Be Both

    I agree fully. There is a distinction between the two covenants, the two "ages". With out a doubt. I do also think it's important to understand and know exactly what being born again does to us, and how one who has been given this gift, this grace will become and how they now see everything...

    How Assured are You ?? (of your salvation)

    100% assured because of His grace and power. He showed me I am saved by resurrecting my dead spirit and reconciling it with His Spirit, forever removing the veil and opening my eyes and leading me to all truth by His power for His glory. This is being born again and it is AMAZING!!! Praise Jesus...

    Understanding God’s election

    Good Lord you're thick. You are everything you just describe "the enemy" as. You're just like the Democrat party, point, scream, and accuse others of everything you're guilty of. You condemn for things you're doing in the very same sentence. This is madness and a complete failure and...

    Understanding God’s election

    Last comment for you. Titus 3 1-11 3 Remind them to be submissive to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work, 2 to speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all people. 3 For we ourselves were once foolish...

    Can the nonelect ever be born-again? (2 Kings 22:27) With the elect thou wilt be elect: and with the perverse thou wilt be perverted.

    Why do you have to apply our flawed logic and futile thinking patterns to the Creator of us all? You act like you can understand Gods choices and even judge them. You don't think that if God does choose who goes to Hell and who doesn't that He does so arbitrarily? That He isn't 1000% just in His...

    Muslims forbid Christians from celebrating Christmas (Bogor, Indonesia)

    Yes I do. But it is so confusing because I misunderstood your comment in that response. It was concerning something completely unrelated and it was all because I misunderstood what you were saying. I do agree with you that we as Christians should stand against these injustices against our...

    Muslims forbid Christians from celebrating Christmas (Bogor, Indonesia)

    Not to mention completely impossible. (as in you can't "law" people into Christ)
