1 | Which proposition is scriptural? | John 3:16 | John Reformed | 89171 | ||
Dear Tim, Your arguement stumbles over "...He WILL save". Your designation of "His people" as pertaining to a specific group (Israelites) has Jesus failing to fulfill prophecy, for only a remnant of the jews were actually saved. Rom 11:8 just as it is written, "GOD GAVE THEM A SPIRIT OF STUPOR, EYES TO SEE NOT AND EARS TO HEAR NOT, DOWN TO THIS VERY DAY." If instead, "His people" are those from every tribe and nation (those drawn by the Father and given to the Son) "will be raised up on the last day" (John 6). John |

2 | Which proposition is scriptural? | John 3:16 | Morant61 | 89185 | ||
Greetings John! How about Rom. 11, where we are told that all Israel will be saved? It isn't really my goal to get into a long debate on this point. I have simply contented that you are taking a verse which is not specific, and could refer to Israel, to the elect, or to all creation, and have tried to make it say that Christ only died for some. But, it doesn't say that at all. You are interpreting it as saying that. Yet, when I show you verses which specifically say that Christ died for all, 'all' doesn't mean 'all'. How do you progress in a debate like that? :-) So, I will continue to stand with the clear statements of Scripture that Christ died for all. I simply haven't seen anything that convinces me that I am wrong to do that. But, I still love you my friend! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
