    Jesus died for the sins of the world

    They didn't believe so they are condemned, as Jesus says. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him...

    Jesus died for the sins of the world

    I see we have an interpretational difference. To read the passage the way your stated theology teaches would need it to say, Ye are not my sheep, that is why ye believe not instead it says, But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I...

    Acts 2:38-39

    "For the promise - That is, the promise respecting the particular thing of which he was speaking - the influences of the Holy Spirit. This promise he had adduced in the beginning of his discourse Act 2:17, and he now applies it to them. As the Spirit was promised to descend on Jews and their...

    Jesus died for the sins of the world

    John 10:26 implies that it was because of their unbelief that the people included in "ye" are not Christ's sheep, I think. That would not be consistent with Limited Atonement as far as I can tell. Is that not true?

    Jesus died for the sins of the world

    Which parts of John 10 do you have in mind. I am interested. I haven't read all the posts in this thread so I am asking for a shortcut I guess.

    Jesus died for the sins of the world

    I've never really understood the necessity to define what happens first in the salvation of human beings when the holy scriptures never say First God elects you next God gives you faith then you're saved! Of course God initiates everything, so to speak, because he created everything. For, like a...

    Christmas trees

    "Modern Christmas trees have been related to the "tree of paradise" of medieval mystery plays that were given on 24 December, the commemoration and name day of Adam and Eve in various countries. In such plays, a tree decorated with apples (to represent the forbidden fruit) and wafers (to...

    Were the Reformers Saved?

    Mennonites are, according to their doctrine, non-violent and most members obey that teaching. Yet Mennonites shun those who are excommunicated. I think shunning is unkind, but I will not say that Mennonites are bad people or that shunning is murder.

    The Unbelieving Pharisees of John 10

    I do not care if I fail their test. Of greater concern to me is to be faithful to God.

    Were the Reformers Saved?

    If you accept all seven, which maybe you do, why then are you a Baptist rather than Catholic or perhaps Orthodox?

    The Unbelieving Pharisees of John 10

    To help me in your ignorance and for the sake of clarity, do you have some objection against the doctrine of the Holy Trinity?

    Were the Reformers Saved?

    Given @Albion's comment shown below. Is anything that he wrote correct? Do you, for example, have some issue with the doctrine of the Holy Trinity? I am inclined to think that you accept the doctrine of the Holy Trinity since participation in the "Christian" subforums implies personal...

    Were the Reformers Saved?

    I am a little confused by the various posts you've written. First you appear to teach Limited Atonement and oppose what you call "Universal atonement". Then you seem to teach that without holiness no one will see God. Now it looks like you're discrediting the founders of Protestantism. But you...

    Were the Reformers Saved?

    I am no friend to the "reformers" nor to the Catholics who so wantonly killed heretics. And I see the point you're writing about. It seems to me that Adolf Hitler didn't directly kill many people and probably did not directly kill any Jews yet few will have any difficulty assigning guilt (and...
