    Understanding God’s election

    Exactly! FWers believe that mankind is the locus of the universe and that God created us so that He could serve us -- equally, fairly and equitably! :rolleyes:

    Unconditional love verses from God to us the people

    By the way, GWH, and others here who subscribe to the ill-conceived theory of God's unconditional ["omnilove"], why haven't any of you addressed the other question I raised in my 179 about the true nature of God's love: Infinite or Finite; Eternal or Temporary? Is God's love Eternal as some...

    Understanding God’s election

    It is you who mischaracterizes what I have written! I have never said man's faith is efficacious; but rather...(now try to pay really close attention!!!) since you FWer's do not see God's grace as being efficacious, then this must mean that the sinner's "freewill", the human faculty that has...

    Unconditional love verses from God to us the people

    Scripture does indeed answer my question! Were the fallen angels cast out of heaven before or after they sinned!? And did God provide any salvific remedy for the fallen angels after they sinned like he did with mankind? Moreover, for whom was hell initially created: For the fallen angels or...

    Unconditional love verses from God to us the people

    But unlike mankind, who also fell from grace, God has not provided any salvific remedy for the fallen angels. No one needs to be saved PRIOR to sinning, for you info. From what would any angel need to be saved, if not from his sin!? Did A&E need to be saved before they sinned? :rolleyes:

    Understanding God’s election

    I mischaracterized nothing! At the end of the day, the FWer's faith is in his mighty and powerful and awesome freewill! Something has to be effectual in a sinner's salvation, and it certainly isn't God's grace! So...with what does that leave the sinner?

    Understanding God’s election

    Pray tell...I'm dying to know what Paul had to say about infants born in Adam! Did he actually boast about how righteous, holy and good they are!?

    Unconditional love verses from God to us the people

    I mean more than that! I mean God who is Love would still be a God of Love if he didn't save so much as one soul! If God was somehow morally required to save anyone out of his love, then his love, his character and the rest of his perfections would all be dependent upon his created beings...

    Understanding God’s election

    Synergism is a satanic scam that allows its adherents the luxury of self-righteousness, as they get to share in God's glory since the salvation buck stops with the ones doing the cooperating with God's ineffectual grace. Therefore, the ultimate cause, the ultimate determinant behind any...

    Understanding God’s election

    From "infancy" you say? You already had a good, loving heart from birth and didn't need a divine transplant, did you? You're MORE self-righteous than the rich young ruler who boasted about his righteousness from only boyhood (Lk 18:21). :rolleyes:

    Oh...I see. So...you're a greater, better, wiser, smarter and a more knowledgeable disciple than what your Master is? "Um...OK".

    Unconditional love verses from God to us the people

    Glad to see you agree with those four explicit Johanine passages wherein Jesus teaches us about the true nature of God's love.

    Unconditional love verses from God to us the people

    Rom 5:8 is teaching that while the elect were still sinners in temporal reality, Christ also died for them in time and space -- all of which demonstrates or bears witness to the truth in the here and now of God's eternal love for his chosen people. For God set His covenant of love upon His...

    Unconditional love verses from God to us the people

    Has God given all the fallen angels the opportunity to "NOT be condemned"? Going by your logic, since He has not, then God must not be love. :rolleyes:

    Unconditional love verses from God to us the people

    Not so! The Father loves his Son precisely because He was always faithful and obedient to his Father (Jn 10:17). And for your further info, the Father and the Son love the elect on the same basis (Jn 14:21; 15:10; 16:27). And this last verse is especially interesting because faith is added to...

    Unconditional love verses from God to us the people

    Does God's Love Ever Fail? This is a very important question that needs a clear, unequivocal, biblical and coherent answer; for according to Lam 3:22, God's love never fails or ever ceases as some translations render the text. And Ps 136 tells us multiple times that God's love "endures...

    Unconditional love verses from God to us the people

    At the same time, God would still be Love if he condemned all human beings along with the fallen angels. His love was not reason enough to save any of them!

    Understanding God’s election

    My remarks that you highlighted are not fallacious. Since GWH and other FWers insist that God's grace is not efficacious, then they must tell come up with something that IS -- something that finally got them to ultimately "choose" Christ. And that "something" can only be their "freewill"...

    Unconditional love verses from God to us the people

    Yes, Positional Truth is a theological term because the concept is biblical! Are there any saints in heaven who have not been imputed with the Last Adam's perfect righteousness? Are there any unjustified saints in heaven?
