You do this every day. The subject determines the meaning of all. I bought all the cherries (in the store). Or "all" the cherries I could fit in a single sack. “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.” John 10:11 (NCV) “But you don’t believe, because you are...

I don't struggle with murdering thousands of Christians.

Here's the gist. Paul spells it out clearly. We have the wicked flesh before we experience salvation. It can only choose to sin. After God sends His Spirit into our hearts, we have a loving nature that hates sin and loves righteousness. This sets up a battle between the flesh and Spirit within...

You are assuming I share your inconsistencies. Remember, I said it is a lie to tell people Jesus died for them and offer the gospel as if it is a means for them to save themselves by. Jesus died for our sins. If you believe, repent and be baptized, and live a holy life, would be the true gospel.

It's a NEW HEART that hates sin and loves righteousness. It does not do what the Reformers did.

We preach the gospel to all. The born-again will believe and repent. The others will treat it as foolishness. The human spirit is saved by the new birth which precedes and makes faith a reality in the heart. To "offer" the gospel shows a complete lack of understanding of the gospel.

Without holiness, you won't see the Lord. You will know them by their fruits.

Yes. But they Preached (announced) the gospel. They did not "offer" it, as is the custom today. It is a lie to tell everyone Jesus died for them as they do in offering the gospel. Furthermore, it offers people the option to save themselves through works of the flesh. If they must choose to...

"Dave's view is like that." Tell us what my view is.

My point is that they were probably not saved based on their actions. You can arrive at the truth through logic if your starting place is correct. So the truths they held did not necessarily come from any spirituality we deem necessary to qualify as a Christian. But their logic is based on...

I developed a Christian worldview that helps me understand what I see according to scripture. I try to saturate my mind with the Bible. The world is like a window we look at every day. We can see the chips, the dirt, the warpage. But if we learn to look through the window, we can see God's plan...

Only God can justify the ungodly. People cannot justify the ungodly so they are an abomination of the Lord who try to do so. Can you think of any churches that justify the ungodly? There arequite a few in my experience.

Don't take my word for it, take his. [Luther] was in later years reproached for such violent language, and for inciting territorial lords to merciless slaughter (they killed over 100,000 peasants), he answered defiantly: "It was I, Martin Luther, who slew all the peasants in the insurrection...

But the word falls on bad ground 3/4 of the time. Only one good soil produces fruit. Can you guess what that is?

"For if a man is an open rebel, every man is his judge and executioner, just as when a fire starts, the first to put it out is best man. . . . Therefore let everyone who can smite, slay, and stab, secretly or openly, remembering that nothing can be more poisonous, hurtful, or devilish than a...

Universal Atonement is Pelagianism, dependent on free will. You are stuck here and cannot escape it. Think of it as Luther's "Full Nelson"

I've provided documentation. Here is some of it again. When he [Luther] was in later years reproached for such violent language, and for inciting territorial lords to merciless slaughter (they killed over 100,000 peasants), he answered defiantly: "It was I, Martin Luther, who slew all the...

Universal atonement doesn't save anyone. This means the person must save themselves with some form of choice. I think you would say by choosing not to resist.

Think like a Hebrew to whom it was written instead of an Americanised Christian, and you'll understand the bible.

Your comprehension doesn't match my thoughts. We should try to better communicate. Buy the books Martyr's Mirror or Foxes's Book of Martyrs. Here's Luther in his own words: When he [Luther] was in later years reproached for such violent language, and for inciting territorial lords to merciless...
