    Do you tell them about Jesus' death on the cross? Do you tell them that their sins are forgiven?

    No one in this thread is bashing Christians. Correcting poor doctrine is not bashing the person.

    That's what you tell them? You don't tell them anything about what He's done?????

    Roe v Wade Overturned

    For it to be returned to the states where the voters decide? Isn't that more democratic?

    Let me ask you this... What is it you're telling people to believe?

    I forgot to address this part... The Holy Spirit pressing us on our need for a Savior is LAW. The Law accuses us of our sin. The Law shows us that we cannot do what needs to be done to be righteous. That's not being born again. That's not regenerative. What regenerates us is the giving us of...

    "I'm the worst person in the world and everything is my fault" ?

    Didn't Paul say something about him being the worst sinner? Maybe I'm not remembering the verse right. I think there needs to be a proper distinction between Law and Gospel and that's where a good pastor and church come in. If a church has too much Law, then you're going to feel like you're...

    So feed them instead of guilting them. Feed them on Christ, His death, atonement, etc... FEED the sheep. Don't make them look inward when they should be looking to our triune God and what He has done for salvation. That's where their faith lies and clings to. Don't ask if they have enough faith...

    So, here's the answer to your suspect of your neighbor....give them more of Jesus.

    Examine ourselves ...and right there in the verse it gives you the answer...JESUS. Don't look within...look to Jesus. Don't ask Do I believe enough? Ask what do you believe? Do you believe that Jesus died for you and your sins are forgiven? The Gospel has the power to bring faith to man...

    I'll tell you what is wrong with that... The question of Have you ever truly trusted in Christ alone for your salvation? That puts doubt in the congregation the way it's posed. It's as if you didn't trust enough so you might have to come back up here to the altar and do it all again. Next...

    4th of July plans

    We're going to a trail where my husband can ride his bike and I'll walk by the river (my knees get murdered when I ride my bike anymore). Then we'll go out to eat and watch fireworks at a gas station parking lot (best view!) in the evening.

    The Resurrection isn't where the atonement was made. It's the cross and that's why the pastor pointed that out. Your forgiveness of sins, which is what you need to be reconciled to God, took place at the cross. The Resurrection is proof that God accepted the sacrifice because it means that Jesus...

    It's the cross that gives us forgiveness of sins. The Resurrection is what gives us hope of being resurrected. Unregenerate man will not believe, for the cross is foolishness to him. You haven't addressed that part of scripture yet. It takes the Gospel to convert and when that happens, man...

    The Holy Spirit uses the Word for us to "hear" the Gospel. As you know, even the deaf can "hear" the Gospel because it's not just auditory. Someone can "read" the Gospel and the Holy Spirit will convert that person according to His will. The Word is preached and the Holy Spirit uses that to...

    Wow. You have really taken away all that God has said He does to save us and put it onto man. The ORDER as you so put it is simultaneous. God gives faith and that's conversion. It happens at the same time. There is no separation as you keep trying to put it. You have put man's reasoning into...

    You have not correctly stated the position that Josiah and I have been putting forth (not in post 86, not anywhere here in this thread). It shows that you are not reading what we have been saying since when you try to reiterate it in your own words, you don't clearly state what God does as we...
