Greetings chosenone…..Let me give Nick a hand here….We are to repent (change)of the nature that is in us all,and that is sin…And in doing so (repent/change)seek the mercy and forgivness that God offers to us all,so as to achieve eternal life in Gods presence…..”For all have sinned and fall short of the Glory that is God”
Thanks TJ.
BlessingsNIck.
Have you finally learned as to why we need not repent? I'll bet not. I won't hold my breath for your explanation, there won't be one.Blessings.
Hi CO,
That is between you and God.
Acts 17
30And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:Nick.
Read it yourself! “condoning the times of ignorance” (Correct translation) what do you think that means?Your welcome.
Nick, so Jesus died for nothing? Whats left to repent of? I thought Jesus died for ALL mankind! Justifying us all.
Hi Co,
He certainly did not die so that all would be magically saved.
Justification and forgiveness is according to the free will of God,
one by one who come in repentant faithto the cross of Jesus.Eph.2:8 …and this is not out of you, lest anyone should be boasting. Nick, are you…?
Eph.2:10 …For His (God) achievement are we,… So I guess you helped Him along?
Blessings.
Hi CO,
Armchair salvation is a false hope.
There are those who are unaware of their own requirements to
listen,
hear,
respond,
obey
and walk.The gentle breeze helps a sail to fill and the boat to make progress
but not if it is anchored in complacency.Quote (Nick Hassan @ July 26 2008,13:46) Hi CO,

Scripture?Hi CO,
I am surprised these concepts are unfamiliar to you.
Matthew 17:5
While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice out of the cloud said, ” This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well-pleased; listen to Him!”Romans 10:14
How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher?Acts 16:14
A woman named Lydia, from the city of Thyatira, a seller of purple fabrics, a worshiper of God, was listening; and the Lord opened her heart to respond to the things spoken by Paul.Acts 5:29
But Peter and the apostles answered, ” We must obey God rather than men.2 Corinthians 4:2
but we have renounced the things hidden because of shame, not walking in craftiness or adulterating the word of God, but by the manifestation of truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.Nick.
Notice the verse before the one you quoted Ro.10:13. …Fore everyone, whoever should be invoking the name of the Lord, shall be saved. Put this together with “every knee shall bow, and every tongue confess”, and what do you get? You must read all scripture to get a clear understanding of what “God is doing”. Keep the scripture “All is of God” in front of you, and you will start to see the “light”.Blessings.
Hi CO,
Rom10
11For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. {?ALL}12For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. {?ALL}
13For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. {?ALL}
14How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
15And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
16But they have not all {ALL} obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?

Hi GB,
Make sure the light you claim to see is not darkness.
Darkness is of the fading carnal world.
We do not want that support.Hi,
Universalists imagine they have found a new teaching in the mouth of Paul that says all men will be saved. They claim that this is a new gospel and that the teachings of Jesus are restricted to the Jews.Such nonsense make Paul a false teacher as no man is greater than the Master whose words are eternal and and all new gospels are to be abhorred. How easily are men deceived.

1Cor.15:22 …For even as, in Adam, all are dying, thus also, in Christ, shall all be vivified.1Tim.4:9-11 …9 Faithful is the saying and worthy of all welcome
10 (for for this are we toiling and being reproached), that we rely on the living God, Who is the Saviour of all mankind,
11 especially of believers. These things be charging and teaching.1Tim.2:4 …Who wills that all mankind be saved and come into a realization of the truth.
God “wills”, is He powerless against “mens will?”Ro.14:11 …11 for it is written: Living am I, the Lord is saying, For to Me shall bow every knee, And every tongue shall be acclaiming God!
And finally, 1Cor.15:25-28 … For He must be reigning until He should be placing all His enemies under His feet.
26 The last enemy is being abolished: death.
27 For He subjects all under His feet. Now whenever He may be saying that all is subject, it is evident that it is outside of Him Who subjects all to Him.
28 Now, whenever all may be subjected to Him, then the Son Himself also shall be subjected to Him Who subjects all to Him, that God may be All in all.)Yet there are those that claim that God will only be “All in SOME”.
Why not believe scripture, not the vain prattering of man?Blessings.
