Prove it.
Stop evading the question.
MM did I get those in close to the right order?
Did I get the impatient tone correct? Stop evading the question. MM did I get those in close to the right order? Did I get the impatient tone correct?
So please answer the question instead of evading it.
I did. I clearly stated that my statements are based on my perceptions. To answer your follow on questions, as a Deacon in my church, I am responsible for the new members class and have an assigned set of the church membership to engage. I have talked to both old members to solicit their opinions on what education needs to be provided via the adult education. I have also asked new members to gauge where they are in their understanding so that our church can meet their needs as well. I have sat at round tables with other churches and their ministers and support staff who have also expressed the same opinions.
I'm getting tired; keeping track of all your mistakes.
You made a claim now back it up.
Metmom I am certain that you will want to chime in on cowboy's unwillingness to produce evidence.
If OSAS were true, Jesus could have accomplished His entire mission on Earth in ten minutes or less....All He had to say was...I am being crucified for the redemption of mankind and the forgiveness of all sin....everyone from now on is saved because I have paid for all sin.
Apostles, you can go back to fishing because there will be no need to spread My work because it applies to everyone whether you believe it or not.....Every one is saved and it doesn't matter what kind of life that you lead....you've been saved....have a good time.
What kind of idiotic tripe are you spouting now??? Do you deny that it is FAITH in Jesus Christ that brings salvation? No, not everyone will be automatically saved because we must accept the gift of God which is eternal life in Jesus Christ. Jesus said to preach the gospel so that ALL may know of the grace of God that brings salvation to all those who BELIEVE.
Sadly, not everyone WILL believe and receive God's gift of grace. They will NOT be saved because they rejected the gift. Others will not be saved because they thought they had to pay for the gift by earning it, meriting it or deserving it - and we can't and don't. By grace are we saved through faith and that not of ourselves. It is the gift of God, not of works lest any should boast.
While they were writing it, they should have hade it say what they wanted it to......pathetic.
you aren't really argueing scripture with Verga are you???
.......snicker...
And you just did....Thank you!!!
God sent His son to Earth to redeem mankind....the human race which He created.
Then He decided to add a ton of conditions.....you must know Christ and be aware of His purpose for being here....you must accept His word that He is Who He says He is....you must accept the conditions that He sets for salvation to apply to you....if you think that you should do good works to merit the gift, you don't get it....once you get salvation, you cannot lose it (OSAS)...if you live in a part of the world like China or the Americas or Siberia....salvation issn't for you as a human because you won't hear of Christ for a millenium or so.
For a God who is all forgiving and all merciful, He sure put a lot of conditions on His GIFT of salvation....Basically, for a thousand years or more, only a handful of people were saved....the rest?????...oh well, just their luck not to have been born in Jerusalem I guess...
.......snicker...
I know what you mean...That would be like a machinist arguing milling machine feeds and speeds with a Golden Retriever...
Especially if the topics were duck hunting and Alpo...
forgive us our trespasses AS WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO TRESPASS AGAINST US.
so our forgiveness is based on how we deal with other people......actions...good deeds etc.
....And that’s why you aren’t God!
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh...My wife thinks I am!
Sit Ubu sit.
When it comes to Christmas presents for the nieces and nephews, my wife thinks I am, St. Nicholas.
he thinks your fun to play with....I had one that like to play, some that didn’t like to play and a few you left along...Ha....
That he does.
