21 | What exactly must a person to be saved? | Bible general Archive 1 | inhisname | 79831 | ||
"God...made us alive" "raised us up with Him" "seated us with Him" God "brought near by the blood of Christ." In the Calvinistic way, I understand that God made me alive, raised me up, seated me, brought me near. Am I closer to Him? Yes. Did I do it that I should boast? No. So it looks to man like works, but isn't. Thank you for asking about my wrists. They do hurt a little bit but its more to do with the position of the mouse. |

I did not mean to say you were a fool. I'm not sinless, I just don't practice it because I can't. I've got a new heart. Do you practice sin? If so, then you may not have a new heart. Do you know what changes the heart of man? A miraculous and supernatural intervention by the Holy Spirit. It is changed. Since salvation is comes even before a single thought of goodness, then how are works now necessary? You don't believe like some that it starts with faith and ends with works? I'm sorry for sounding offensive to you. |

"You have not taken a single one of them and explained how the passages telling Christians to obey aren't REALLY telling Christians to obey." They can't because telling is like commanding. Commanding is like having to. Having to makes a bad outcome if you don't do what you are told. Then it just comes around to me and works and not God. God's doing it. Every act I do is credited to God. It is to His credit and glory. Others see the Christian in action and glorify not the man but God the doer. Wait, I'm reading the last part...are you saying that faith and works are equal. That's been disproven, I'm sure. You agree with Romans and then you say just the opposite. I always say the same thing and I don't change. If works are EVIDENCE then you must think there is no honor to God when someone says they are saved without EVIDENCE, but faith alone. I think we are saying the same thing but in a different way. The first question: what must a person do to be saved? Answer: Faith alone; God's gift is Faith; My part is nothing. God gets all the glory. |

You are working too hard. Let the Spirit work. It's not about your power to persuade, it is God's power. You should show some faith. | ||||||

This place you take is most Calvinist problem. I'm consistent. I don't deny I'm different because God does it all. I explained Ephesians 2:8,9, It looks like work but its not because God does it all. You betray Calvin by changing the message after salvation and make people work. I'm consistent. The robot does what it is told but it has no choice. The operator of the robot is doing everything. | ||||||

There are too many other verses that teach God, first to last, does it all. So those verses must be interpreted in the light of them. You see? | ||||||

I am new here so hope I do this right. Could Cain 'do well'? I've heard that God is the Potter of Cain. inhisname |

How could God not be pleased. If Cain does bad doesn't that give God a chance to show his power? Each man is molded by the Potter. The questions are rhetorical because Cain only did what he was made to do. God is the one and only Sovereign. I hope that you will see the error of this and thank you for trying. | ||||||
30 | Could cain do well? | Gen 4:7 | inhisname | 79705 | ||
God does not sin and does not tempt. Only good comes from God. But each man is clay in His hand. But God hated Esau who did nothing wrong. And God propped up the Egyptian Pharaoh and hardened his heart. Pharaoh 'had' to do evil. He didn't have a 'choice' because that way people see the power of God and glorify Him. Doesn't his Sovereignty mean that He has all power? "the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords"-1Tim.6:15 I have so many people to answer. I don't know why. Calvinism is absolute truth. |

31 | Robots? | Gen 4:7 | inhisname | 79708 | ||
And God bless you. Your questions are honest and would be worth consideration IF man had free will. But man doesn't. Not since the fall of man. Without that free will means that God has to do it all. There is no other choice. About being a Robot. I wouldn't use that word. A robot is not flesh and blood. There is a "big" difference! So many people are talking about works when they know that salvation is by faith only until death. |

32 | Could cain do well? | Gen 4:7 | inhisname | 79711 | ||
That's right, God ordains that evil arises for his glory. And no He's not pleased with sinful ways. The good and the evil He does to bring about His glory. I don't know why you say I'm trying. I'm just here to talk about our common faith and salvation. The verses you mention cannot be a contradiction to the REALITY that God is sovereign. | ||||||
33 | Continue in sin that grace may abound? | Gen 4:7 | inhisname | 79713 | ||
I don't disagree with the verses you give. God does not tempt. We are the clay in His hands. But how can you disagree with this? "If Cain does bad doesn't that give God a chance to show his power?" Paul said Pharaoh was "a vessel of wrath prepared for destruction." ----Rom 9:22 blessings |

35 | Robots? | Gen 4:7 | inhisname | 79827 | ||
Do you REALLY have free will or is it the carnal nature that wants to control things? There is an answer for these things. The Eccles verse has to do with judgment? I will think about it. "God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing" Cain did a hidden thing, right? There is an answer for everything. Would God judge him if he was evil seed? Cain only did from his nature. But God is just and cannot put up with sin. So God is just to punish Cain for sin. It is a mystery of God and shouldn't be questioned. He is the Potter! blessings inhisname |

36 | Continue in sin that grace may abound? | Gen 4:7 | inhisname | 79828 | ||
This Romans 9:22 refers back to 9:17, For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, "FOR THIS VERY PURPOSE I RAISED YOU UP, TO DEMONSTRATE MY POWER IN YOU, AND THAT MY NAME MIGHT BE PROCLAIMED THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE EARTH." Sorry I didn't put that. God raises some men up just to destroy them. He is Sovereign. Chances are they would have been lost anyway. |

37 | If you have a point, what is it? | Gen 4:7 | inhisname | 79829 | ||
Yahweh said to Cain, "if you do well, will not your countenance be lifted." It is a question that has no bearing on Cain's nature? ok. That's what I mean, it was just rhetorical questions. We agree. | ||||||
38 | Could cain do well? | Gen 4:7 | inhisname | 79836 | ||
When he says, "Hence those who have thought that baptism is nothing else than the badge and mark by which we profess our religion before men, in the same way as soldiers attest their profession by bearing the insignia of their commander, have not attended to what was the principal thing in baptism; and this is, that we are to receive it in connection with the promise, "He that believeth and is baptised shall be saved.' (Mark 16: 16.)" Without baptism he is not saved? Calvin didn't think Holy Spirit baptism was an outward sign of earlier salvation? Or he didn't think water baptism was an outward "insignia" of earlier salvation? Surely he was wrong. I think all of those verses are talking about Holy Spirit baptism. Water is not mentioned. That must be the answer. Peter commanded Holy Spirit baptism in Acts 2:38 and the other verse. I'll study more. |
