1 | What in the world was Paul thinking?!? | 2 Tim 4:18 | JibbyJee | 88953 | ||
What was Paul thinking?!?!? I mean, just LOOK at what he had the audacity to say: 2 Timothy 4:17 But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, so that through me the proclamation might be fully accomplished, and that all the Gentiles might hear; and I was rescued out of the lion's mouth. 2 Timothy 4:18 The Lord will rescue me from every evil deed, and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom; to Him be the glory forever and ever. Amen. This proves 2 things about Paul: 1. He was arrogant. 2. He was ignorant. Both are easily proved by the fact that the doctrine of eternal security is a myth. Once-saved-always-saved is a doctrine made up by Luther and Calvin. Paul may have SAID he knew he was going to heaven, but he was confused. It's possible that he could have become an apostate. He just couldn't have known. Therefore, none of us can know we are always going to be saved. Salvation depends upon our works. BEFORE YOU LAY INTO ME: THIS IS A PARODY!!! In CHRIST (and eternally secure), JibbyJee |

If your name is written in the Lambs Book of Life then you are saved forever. Jesus doesn't use erasers. Once saved always saved. It is good to do works but it is not required. I want you to know I'm only 14 so please post some verses as my knowledge of the Bible isn't great enough. Though I'm 14 dont look down on what I have to say please. read 1 Timothy 4:12 also what is a parody? |

Greetings John! Welcome to the Forum and thanks for your reply! It's wonderful to see a 14 yearold in here standing up for Jesus! Bring all your friends! I'm ONLY 27, by the way, (to make all the old folks like Hank feel even OLDER (just kiddin' Hank!)). Now, a parody is something, like a skit or a play, or even something written like this that uses sarcasm to make a point (sometimes used to make fun of an opposing view by using metaphorical language). In the case of the post you've responded to, I was using it to use sarcasm to make the point that the Apostle Paul KNEW he was saved AND going to Heaven. Now, there are a lot of misinformed people out there who will tell you that you can lose your salvation, but that is pure nonsense and heresy. If you are saved now, you will be saved when you die. If you say you're saved now and have turned away from the Gospel of Jesus Christ and never return before you die, then you were never truly saved to begin with (1 John 2:19). I invite you to read my post again, now that you know that I, just like you do, believe wholeheartedly in the doctrine of the Perseverance of the Saints (once-saved-always-saved), and was using sarcasm to make my point. Soli Deo Gloria! JIBBS PS What's your favorite verse or passage of the Bible? Mine is all of Romans 9 or John 6. |

I haven't studied the Bible enough to have a favorite verse really. I'm going to try to read my Bible daily now because at Student Life camp my youth minister told me that if you hear a verse in your head its probably God putting it there. So I decided I need to expand my knowledge of his word so I can here what he has to say. Johnross2007 P.S. thnx for clearing up the parody thing. |

Hi John! Good to hear from you again! That was great advice your youth minister gave you. Where you starting out in your daily reading? I recommend the Gospel of John. It's my favorite of the Gospels. Take care! In Christ, JIBBS |

Well I figured why not start from the beggining so I'm reading Genesis. The Bible I use gives an intro of every book describing it and it said by reading Genesis first you will better understand every other book since most of them refer to events in Genesis. I love my youth minister he is the best minister I have ever had. Even better than any preacher. | ||||||
