    The 5 points of TULIP for 1689Dave

    That would be more palatable. But Paul gives us the reason God created the universe and all that is therein. “And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: To the intent that...

    The 5 points of TULIP for 1689Dave

    Points 4 & 5 feature coerced salvation by works. Calvin was a Universal atonement buff and this squares with his misunderstanding.

    Do you think sinning is unavoidable?

    I could not believe in any true sense had Jesus not paid for my sins on the cross. Heb 11:1 tells me faith is the substance and evidence of my salvation. If I decided to believe, it would be because I did not believe but chose to trust in the arm of the flesh instead.

    A Jewish way of looking at salvation

    I always pray before studying. And always give thanks for the truth He shares with me. I feel indebted to Him to share it with you and others.

    Do you think sinning is unavoidable?

    Paul says, whatever is not of faith is sin. Cub scouts sin when they help old ladies if not in faith. But it is a greater sin not to help them.

    A Jewish way of looking at salvation

    “But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.” 1 John 2:27 (KJV 1900)

    Do you think sinning is unavoidable?

    Try to understand. We die because we are full of sin. But Jesus tells us to pray that God would lead us not into temptation. Why? Because as John says, the born-again cannot sin. Even though it kills us and we fight against sinning 24/7. “My little children, these things write I unto you, that...

    A Jewish way of looking at salvation

    Americanised "Christians" are blind to scripture for the most part.

    Do you think sinning is unavoidable?

    Paul had so much sin he moaned "o wretched man that I am". I battle sin 24/7 but I don't sin. I'm merely tempted.

    Do you think sinning is unavoidable?

    They expect people to sin as a lifestyle. John says the Born Again cannot sin.

    A Jewish way of looking at salvation

    All people to a Jew = both Jews and Gentiles. This is based on God's promise to Abraham. It is obvious he didn't die for Judas or most of the Pharisees. He blinded them so they could not believe. The world = is Kosmos. = Future Universe, also Jews and gentiles. Not each and every person...

    Is the doctrine of Penal Substitution incoherent?

    I don't know. But it seems the devil sinned before Adam since he tempted him.

    Sex education in primary schools

    I've seen kids indoctrinated into thinking and living like Christians who later snap, and turn out worse than the pagans around them. They could probably teach the teachers a few things. The kids did not have the New Birth that makes the Christian lifestyle possible. So I would leave it alone...

    Is the doctrine of Penal Substitution incoherent?

    The video completely misses God's reason for the creation of the universe. God makes himself known to his created order through sin. No sin, no righteousness. No sin, no mercy, no sin, no wrath, no sin (hatred) no love, and so on. God's suffering in Jesus to redeem certain of Adam's sinful...
