Another lie! Believers never suffer God's wrath. His wrath is reserved for unbelievers. "Wrath" isn't even mentioned in the above passage. :rolleyes:

God has never been without a faithful remnant on this earth. And the first faithful remnant on record immediately after the Fall was Eve, who acknowledged God and expressed faith in Him after He elected her to salvation (Gen 3:15).

Oh, yes..."depravity" is not a politically correct word in FWT. Yet, mankind is in bondage to its depravity! 2 Peter 2:19 19 They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity — for a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. NIV But hey...some FWers think it's pretty...

Very strange answer to my question. Since you ducked my question altogether, I have to conclude that you don't know the answer. Maybe God couldn't figure out what to do with Adam. Maybe God figured, "Two are company and three's a crowd, so Adam wasn't explicitly designated as being anyone's...

Define "we". Who is "we": Everyone on the planet or Christians?

You have no appreciation for sarcasm, do you? But...on a serious note, we are talking about SPIRITUAL corpses that can only make decisions that are consistent with their evil nature.

The very essence of...the warp 'n' woof of sin is this insatiable human desire to be God. Lucifer wanted to be God and he fell. Then the evil one tempted Eve to be [like] God, and she fell for that lie (bad pun intended), and then Adam decided that he wanted to be just like his other half...

I love it when you have these brief and rare honest moments. On the other hand, wiseguy, how can a corpse know anything?

No, they can't understand because they're corpses. And God did decree there eternal state in eternity.

You CANNOT see your own bevy of errors due to all those planks hanging our your eyes, let alone anyone else's -- real or perceived. :rolleyes:

Almost true, although even those with reprobate minds "know how to read"! You would have been more accurate if you had said that the non-elect have been chosen to remain in their state of death, blindness, deafness, darkness and lostness.

Mr. Redneweddaybyday, I have a question for you. There are two seeds mentioned in Gen 3:15 -- the Woman's and the Serpent's. To whose, seed, therefore, did Adam belong? Thanks.

I believe God established the family structure ... God reveals truth to the parents and the parents are to teach the children. Genesis 4:3 states And in process of time it came to pass that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the Lord. The words in process of time indicate...

As usual your interpretation ignores the context of John 12. The phrase "all men" is used in the qualitative sense to mean all w/o distinction. The context of the passage itself bears this truth out, for at that time many Jews and Gentiles (Greeks) were seeking Christ, but not "all" in the...

LEARN to READ, already, will ya? What makes you think that the OC saints were not acted upon powerfully by the Holy Spirit? For your info, we've had this discussion several months ago wherein I quoted and/or cited numerous OT passages about the ways God manifested his "presence" and influence...

Hah...so that's how Jesus healed the physically deaf!? First they had to listen to him with their deaf ears and then he'd cure them of their deafness. And this makes perfectly good sense in your loony world of FWT. :rolleyes:

Quit projecting your beliefs unto me or any other believer in the Reformed Tradition. Christ's success in your world is very limited because, after all, He doesn't effectually save anyone; very much unlike Christ doesn't actually save anyone. He only provides opportunities. The rest is up to...

Why would you think Adam had an excuse for sinning!? What excuse did Lucifer have for sinning!? Having said that, we should still understand that the Fall of Mankind was within God's purview; for He decreed in both cases that sin enter this world -- just as He has also...

Since you don't believe that Adam's sin is imputed to all mankind, then explain to me how Adam can be a type of Christ? Also, you should really study Rom 5:12ff re this typology. Maybe you'll figure out why it's definitely NOT a good thing to die in Adam! And who taught the boys to bring an...

And your point is what precisely?
