1 | Is Salvation lump sum? | Heb 7:25 | dodoy | 220005 | ||
1 Timothy 4:9-11 (NASB) 9 It is a trustworthy statement deserving full acceptance. 10 For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have fixed our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of believers. 11 Prescribe and teach these things. In what context did Paul say God is the Savior (NOT just a Savior) of all men? 1 Timothy 1:15 (NASB) It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost of all. I believe there are no gray areas here. God is the Savior of all men in the context of saving sinners. Has anyone got a problem with this? I don't think so. Let Scripture interpret itself. Sola Scriptura. The danger with assertions is in fact mentioned by Paul in this same letter to Timothy (verses 5 - 7) |

2 | Is Salvation lump sum? | Heb 7:25 | Beja | 220007 | ||
Dodoy, Let me suppliment my arguement with this passage. Isaiah 45:5-7 "I am the LORD, and there is no other; Besides Me there is no God. I will gird you, though you have not known Me; That men may know from the rising to the setting of the sun That there is no one besides Me. I am the LORD, and there is no other, The One forming light and creating darkness, Causing well-being and creating calamity; I am the LORD who does all these." This passage affirms that there is no deliverance of any type, nor calamity of any type that is not ultimately from the hand of God. The arguement is simply this: I'm the only God out there, who else could it be? This doesn't prove my reading, but it supports what I'm saying with regards to all deliverance of any type of worldly distress is ultimately from the hand of our God. In Christ, Beja |
