[Caution: Detrimental remarks especially Calvinism/Arminianism is not permitted. Continued abuse of the rule will lead to loss of posting priviledges.] Well, if I was speaking of Jesus in that tone I believe you would be correct. Calvin was a man like all the rest of us. He made gross mistakes in his thinking that lead to much blood-letting and destruction. Our national Constitution is written in way to prevent what he did in Geneva, from ever happening again. People came to these shores to escape government and persecution heavily influenced by his thinking. That just history, John, not my opinion. If we've reached a point we can't speak of history on a forum such as this where all should be willing to know while not distorting the truth for advantage, we're in big trouble. Satan wins another one. |

Ken, I have recieved a personal warning from The Lockman foundation cautioning against engaging in debates over theological perspectives. Therefore, for me to respond by defending Calvin would place my status on this forum in jeopardy. My advice is to stick to Bible Study and shun political and religious propaganda. I would not want you to lose your posting priveleges. John John |

I understand but it is not from a theological perspective that I discuss such men. Why they did it is a subject that will always be debated with no one winning. The fact they did it is of a historical nature. Augustine, Luther, Calvin, et al; have left marks on history that we have responsibilty to see and be cautious that we don't take into ourselves another gospel from them or anyone.. God didn't permit it and when He saw it happening He raised up another denomination to counter it. All having a truth but none having all of it. So if persecution comes for your way make sure it's because of preaching Jesus and not someone else. | ||||||
4 | Is the sin nature a substance or mindset | Phil 3:9 | Pam D | 100410 | ||
Please stop arguing and answer my questions. Is the sin nature a substance or a mindset? Has the sin nature been eradicated and replaced by the new nature? Or does the sin nature remain in the believer and battle against the new nature? Is the sin nature the same thing as the flesh? What is the new nature? Is it God in me or is it a part of me that is a new creation? Is the new nature a substance or a mind set? Blessings, Pam PS Ken, I'm glad you found the Keswick article helpful to you. |

Sin is a part of us as the Bible says and I think all can agree that (We have all sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God.) (I'm pharaprasing)We are born into sin therefore we must repent daily. | ||||||
