Interesting article in the link below. Of course there are 100s daily similar to this on independent news sites lately. Our Lord did tell us that wars, famine, pestilence and earthquakes would be in a diversity of areas on the earth RIGHT BEFORE they come for us. Matthew 24 guillotines Prepare yourselves; your chance to NOT DENY the Lord is approaching quick IMO. They won't be just mocking us soon!

Calvinism or Arminianism? How do you answer?
wretched replied to PastorMatt's topic in Biblical Issues
Oh, I believe there is direct evidence in Scripture of a child's innocence before God. Not only direct evidence but also many clues and deliberate omissions in Scripture. Keep in mind that I am not a grieving parent over a deceased child and that I as many, made professions of "faith" as a child. None of that changes what Scripture reveals. Children and the New Birth? -

Forgiveness Unseen ?

Your answer may be hidden in the question brother. It does apply IMO. If we forgive not, neither will He forgive us If we deny Him, He will also deny us. Etc..

President Trump's trusted medical advisor knew this was coming in 2017 The Mueller Hoax failed, The Quid pro quo hoax/impeachment failed: Is COVID-19 the back up plan to remove Trump and the National sovereignty mindset from the world? Is it the last resort of the original Insurance Policy communicated by the FBI in 2016? Coincidence? Was it just an "educated" guess? He seemed pretty authoritative in the statement but then caught himself and walked it back speaking of diseases during every presidency in general. I wonder, was he "educated" by his deep state colleagues? More from this

Perhaps there are instructions for a pastor's wife and it doesn't match the carnal church member's ideas. Pastors were intended to be elders, assuming the word elder and aged mean the same thing (and it does), the common sense assumption would then make an elder's wife "aged". Certainly sounds allot like the quals of bishops and deacons. Titus 2: [1] But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine: [2] That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience. [3] The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false

I respect your decision brother.

Brother Scott, this is what I mean here when I warn men not to see and use God's Word as a reference for their already settled, "theological ideas" but to treat it as God intended as the Bread of Life; The Living Water. Please believe me my dear friend when I tell you that I do not want to win temporary debates on forums, I want all of us who have received seed to win the war satan has waged on our souls through the traditions (theology) of men.
-
Do this and you will fear no more friend: Bread of Life

I understand your stand brother and respect it. I simply view it from the standpoint of consistency in the NT and I correlate it to tares which God's Word also tells us "believe". But this belief is only in the mind and not in the heart. Mental belief lasts only as long as it is reinforced from without, heart belief results in the new birth. I believe this is why our end days "churches" are filled with tares constantly being reinforced from without but the hearts are not right in the sight of God. These receive a "gospel" with the costs already counted for them and then repetitiously reinforce
-
That is close Scott and was definitely considered but doesn't fit if the issue being considered is sinful acts and not the condition of the heart in unbelief. The context of Simon is His disingenuous "belief" of which repentance was needful. Does that make sense?

Whatever it takes for the win Jim, you can have it my friend
-
Well that is because it is the only NT Book that associates repentance with sins directly Jim. Prior to that in the NT and before this current age ends repentance toward God is always the precursor of faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ. Repentance in this current age is always described as changing of our misconception of God (whether atheist or religious) and our true purpose for existence and returning to the True God of all creation, the God of the Holy Bible. Returning because at birth we had an inherent knowledge of the God of creation but lost it to the world system after puberty. Romans

Jim, the issue was the specific phrase to repent of your sins.
