    The Official Chat Thread

    I had some yummy chicken, pasta, potatoes, carrot, and onion all nicely seasoned and herbed ... I wish herbed was a real word, the past tense verb form of herb :)

    Is the Reformation to blame for Mariology abuse?

    Who is in this 'movement', for example, who is its leader and how do you know that this person or group of persons are its leaders? In fact what is this 'movement'? What do they want to have adopted as doctrine or dogma?

    Necessity and sufficiency in relation to salvation.

    It is possible that everything is necessary and nothing is sufficient. It might just be that grace and grace alone will bring the faithful home to God.

    Once saved always saved?

    And it is interesting to see such certainty about somebody else expressed in your posts a certainty as certain as your own certainty about yourself.

    Once saved always saved?

    I wondered that too when you posted "Then he obvious was not born again. Or the Good Shepherd dropped the ball on this one. Or the Father stopped loving His child."

    For the same sorts of reasons that you assume that you're saved and not just religious.

    Once saved always saved?

    Then my friend who was an evangelical and is now an atheist is still saved because he was redeemed according to the promises of God and consequently he was a sheep who the Lord Jesus Christ doesn't lose. A most reassuring message ... were it true.

    Once saved always saved?

    I never miss that point; the Lord Jesus Christ is without doubt the good shepherd and the Father without doubt always keeps his promises. That is a given that we both accept in faith. What I am wondering is how folk like my friend can be so mistaken about their faith and folk like you can be so...

    whats the weather like where you live?

    It's cold here tonight; 9 C (48 F). I allowed the Windows 10 update to happen. I have a complete backup of windows 7 incase I decide I dislike windows 10 again :)

    Once saved always saved?

    And if he at some time in the future returns to the faith that he used to confess as his own would that mean that he really was born again back then and merely has backslided for a time now? He says he really did believe the gospel, and he knows exactly what are the main points of the gospel...

    Once saved always saved?

    He believed what the Westminster Confession of Faith summarises of the faith described in the bible; he was rather devout and very active in the Presbyterian church of which we were both members. But I see your point; neither you nor I can know exactly what he believed apart from what he said he...

    Once saved always saved?

    Does that mean that my friend only thought he was saved but didn't know it because when he was an evangelical he said he was saved. Was he wrong?

    Once saved always saved?

    I have a friend, a married man whose family (wife & children) are evangelicals and who was himself an evangelical until he became an atheist. He does not live a life or riot and wickedness but he does not love God - as a matter of fact he does not believe God exists at all. So is a chap, such as...

    Once saved always saved?

    Doesn't your stated reply mean that a person can sin as they please and still have remission? What incentive is there for moral reform for a person who is 'saved' but has decided that a life of moral turpitude and crime suits them?

    Once saved always saved?

    He did, but is that an answer for my question? Do you think that one's planned future sins, the ones a person knowingly intends to do, are forgiven in advance of doing them thus giving advance absolution to the sinner to sin as he or she pleases without any possibility of loss of a saving...
