Not true. God's wrath is glorified in their judgment and eternal suffering. Just as the elect glorify his mercy.

God so loved the world refers to His promise to Abraham of blessings for the whole world. But the constraint is Israel. Salvation is only for the Jews. So it speaks of God breaking off the unbelieving Jews and grafting believing gentiles into their place. So the number broken off was only a...

But Judgement Day says you don't understand. If he paid for everyone's sins, there is nothing left to judge.

According to Curtis Edwards, Pagan Pentecostalism: Its Roots: Sex, Sin & Slavery, Voodoo was the religion of African slaves. And even before slavery they would voodoo any religion they took part in. They had voodoo Catholicism in their homeland for the main part. Then after coming to Haitian...

How do you tell if your faith is real? The first test might be: if you must choose to believe, it's not real faith. It is intellectual assent, decided upon as a work of Free Will, that is, the flesh. It cannot save. You will end up trusting in your "faith" instead of Christ. Luther makes this...

Luther? Every time I'd mention his name people would impulsively reply "justified by faith", not really knowing what He taught. It became a "buzzword" that would make you a member of the club. But only one faith exists. “One Lord, one faith, one baptism,” Ephesians 4:5 (KJV 1900) Believing...

Jesus, the personal name of the Trinity in the NT. God our salvation anointed = Jesus Christ defined. God (the trinity) was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself. Lord in the LXX = YHWH. The Lord Jesus Christ = YHWH in the NT. Baptize them in the Name (singular) of the Father, Son, and...

Did you know how horrible Luther's abusive upbringing was? I think if we look honestly at the Reformation, we'll save face by not endorsing these people. Calvin was a monster but we haven't gotten to that yet.

The answer is: Jesus paid for the sins of the elect only. The simple truth of Judgment Day proves that he did not pay for the sins of most.

1. There is only one God (e.g., Rom. 3:30) 2. The Father is God (e.g., John 6:27) 3. Jesus the Son is God (e.g., John 20:28; Rom. 9:5; 2 Peter 1:1) 4. The Holy Spirit is God (e.g., Acts 5:3–5) 5. These Three are distinct persons (e.g., John 14:16–17) On the Mount of tranfiguration “While...

Including the sin of unbelief, or resisting him?

Pfister, Oscar. Christianity and Fear (Roultedge Library Editions: Christianity) (p. 436). Taylor and Francis. Is a must-read for anyone wanting to see the truth in the matter. He was a Lutheran Minister with a devotion to truth and honesty in the matter.

It is scripture. Can you prove it is not? If you twist the scripture, does that mean all LCMS people do?

That is true. You said you knew what modal Monarchianism is. Obviously, you do not.

Why go with the Papacy who destroyed the Apostle's authority, taking it upon himself to restate the baptismal formula? And accuse me of things you obviously do not understand. A guy that was actually re-baptized as a trinitarian, according to scripture, in love for Christ? I've never...

They are modal monarchians. Do you know what that means? It would help if you did. I'm trinitarian.

I'm a Protestant-Catholic. That is, a member of the Holy Catholic Church mentioned in the creeds but not affiliated with the Roman or Orthodox Catholic Churches.

Did it all the time. We used to have gift exchanges in at least two places. It was a good way to get it behind us.
