    Christian: Arminianism vs. Calvinism

    When they believe the gospel when the gospel is not believed (Christ's redeeming work is beleived ((relied upon and trusted)) for salvation,(to be believed it needs to be understood.) No comment. ....... just kidding. God has granted to the gentiles repentance unto life (acts 11:18), before...

    Christian: Arminianism vs. Calvinism

    I would say that this happens because some people are moved (or manipulated)emotionally to respond to an altar call so they come and say a prayer asking for Jesus to be their saviour not based on the truth of the gospel but because of the preachers fine words or pressure from others. True...

    My Biggest Beef With Modern Christianity

    Those of us who believe this find beauty in this truth rather than the ugliness that you see. The beauty is that although man is so incined toward sin and even though the image of God in man is so marred as to make us ugly and defiled, God looked at us with love and compassion and sent His dear...

    Can your heart be prepared for Christ without you knowing it?

    The 19th century conversion of Samuel Morris is a classic case of this. Samuel Morris

    Christian: Arminianism vs. Calvinism

    I would say that if a person publicly responds to an altar call and publicly confesses Jesus Christ as Lord has the right to be called a Christian but only time can tell if that is so. I was the subject of a false altar call conversion myself but I could talk religion as good as anyone, no one...

    We are all one

    So i've read but why shouldn't they if they are not conviced of the validity of the benefits of the theory? I as a Christian have very definite beleifs about right and wrong, good and evil. Making distinctions is vital to my well being as a person and to the happiness of my soul. I must...

    What did jesus do?

    Jesus begged to differ, that's why He offered Himself as an atonement for sin. BUT DEATH COULD NOT HOLD HIM WHO DID NO SIN. HE IS RISEN!

    We are all one

    "All is one" is the embrace that smothers, nothing is special if all is one, nothing is evil bif all is one, nothing is good if all is one. If all is one then what matters? I am not one with the wasps that attack me every year, I am not one with a tsunami and I am not one with with the noxious...

    Has this happened to you?

    I would say that your brain created it to ease your distress and used religious terminology as your would respond most positivley to that. Or on the other hand it was a devil from hell deceiving you into to thinking you are as magnificent as God is. I'm glad for you that your distress has...

    Christian: Arminianism vs. Calvinism

    Absolutely, I have heard him say time and again that he is not an arminian. For one thing he teaches once saved always saved.

    Christian: Arminianism vs. Calvinism

    As neither Calvinist or Arminian I recommend What Love is This? by Dave Hunt on the subject matter if nothing else it is an excellent study on the nature of God as revealed in the bible.

    Once again, the BoM...

    To be fair Tom they don't usually try to convince you that it's true by pointing to any evidence but rather to pray about it and see if God will tell you supernaturally that it's true. At least that's all the American missionaries use to try to convince me.

    Is Barack Hussein Obama the Antichrist ???

    [/B][/COLOR] Sounds like a good mormon boy to me, after all isn't it mormon doctrine that we are all children of God?

    Why is the christian community in America such a powerful political force?

    I would say simply because there are a lot of Christians who use their right to vote who also share the same moral convictions which are important to them. If you get a politician who sings to the sang hymn book they will feel that he represents them best and will have a positive effect on the...

    Christianity and religious pluralism

    That teaching is unique to Christianity, Jesus said it right there in the passage, by this men shall know if ye are my disciples. Disciples of Jesus are called Christians and loving one another is to be the defining characteristic amongst Christian brethren as a proof of their Christianity, but...

    Christianity and religious pluralism

    For me the gospel that saves is unique to biblical Christianity, it is defined in the bible and without it a person is lost forever. This being the case any religion which offers a salvation different to the one that is offered through the biblical gospel is the invention of Satan to keep man...

    By the Power and In the Name of Jesus Christ Satan and Your Demons be Bound in Hell Forever

    Sure but: Luke 10:20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

    Why I left Islâm

    I can understand why a person would reject the faith they were born into as they open their eyes to the big wide world but your rejection of Divinity I can never understand as I have never been close to doing that.

    Is there anyone out there who upholds bible infalliblility?

    God was being extra generous![/FONT][/COLOR] No you misunderstand, I never said that the writings of older dispensations were of no use, Paul himself said they were also for our benefit to learn from them but God has decided not to give the aforementioned lost books to us yet we still have...
