    Quote If belief in the Trinity is necessary for salvation (which I do not agree with), why does he not include that in the Gospel messages he preaches?Belief in the Trinity is not necessary for salvation. In fact, John wrote the Gospel of John with the purpose that people would know that Jesus is the Son of God. His purpose was not that people…[Read more]

    Hi 942767,Here's a comment by Spurgeon on God forseeing faith:”But,” others say, “God elected them on the foresight of their faith.” Now, God gives faith therefore He could not have elected them on account of faith, which He foresaw. If there were twenty beggars in the street, and I determine to give one of them a dollar, will anyone say that I…[Read more]

    Quote (chosenone @ June 13 2007,13:53)Hi 942767 & sscott. When scripture says “God will be All in all”. I didn't see that addition 'in the body of Christ, and not all humanity', that you added on. We must be very carefull to not add to God's word. (Rev. 22:18) “If ever anyone is appending to them, God shall be appending to him the…[Read more]

    Wow…that's really interesting. I've never read that before. It seems to line up with many scriptures that speak of election though. Can you send me the link to read it online?

    If God wanted all to be saved could He not having given ALL the “Spirit” from birth as He did John the Baptist? What God did for one could He not have done for all? When Jesus said He will draw ALL men to Himself He was speaking of the mystery that Paul explains in Romans. The Mystery that the Gentiles would be grafted in as well and become one…[Read more]

    A Scriptures to think on:Rev 17:88 The beast that you saw was, and is not, and will ascend out of the bottomless pit and go to perdition. And those who dwell on the earth will marvel, whose names are not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world, when they see the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.

    Quote (kenrch @ Feb. 24 2007,00:42)No one comes to Jesus unless the Father draws him. God knows the heart. All are called but few are chosen. If you are not ready to accept Jesus then the Father doesn't draw you. Sadly some try to come to Christ because of peer pressure which ends up making Christianty look bad, because the seed is not deeply…[Read more]
