1 | How can anyone be saved? | 1 Cor 2:14 | Mommapbs | 60694 | ||
Greetings John! Thanks for the response. I'm really trying to understand your perspective and have thought much about our discussion. Sometimes I just become so overwhelmed and give up trying to reason it all out. You asked,"Do we really want to trust ourselves for salvation rather than Him.?" How do we do this? Are you saying that we draw a picture of what God's salvation is supposed to look like and then add our selves to the drawing? I believe the sovereignty of God is at the heart of everything. He is absolutely in control of all creation. (For this I am eternally, yes forever, grateful!) Yet, I confess, I am not exactly sure how it operates. I can see that you have thought much on this topic. I have not. May the Lord continue to instruct me, as I know so little of the riches of His glory! Blessings, Mommapbs |

2 | How can anyone be saved? | 1 Cor 2:14 | John Reformed | 60697 | ||
Dear Mommapbs, You said: I can see that you have thought much on this topic. I have Momma. I set out to disprove it. And ran smack dab up against His Word. I have agonized over Election verses Free Will and all that it implies. In the end I took comfort from the Word. Gen 18:25 "... Shall not the Judge of all the earth deal justly?" The Sovereignty of God and the responsibility of man are one of those questions that may have to wait til we're glorified...if then! In the meantime my acceptance of God's election of us has sure cleared up alot of verses that troubled me.(John 6., Rom 9 etc.) God Bless, John |
