I am sorry I am not a scholar and dont know how to spell very well. I dont know what soteriology is either. I know Jesus Christ is my saviour. What if some of those teachers of old were wrong. One of these two is right and one is wrong as they oppose each other in nearly every way. So some of the wonderful old saints were wrong and some were right. That was the bases of my question. Why study and try to learn from sources that could be wrong as one of these two are. Even you will admit how different these two are. I am sorry I said "wasting time" and I was wrong to ask it that way. I really thought it was a simple question and now wonder do people spend years studying such things. They are free to do so. Also I am somewhat amazed at how complicated and deep some people try to make the scriptures. As a new christian, in these trying times why not rest in the the truth of the bible and Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.I do. I also like a good concordance to find verses. Anway I will not spend my time pouring over or studying these as I personally see no need. |

Dear God's elect: I am so sorry you have been misunderstood. Seems like many respondants have "attacked you" rather than try to help. Shame on them! It is very confusing and I understand your frustration, too bad those that have responded to you havn't studied 1 Corinthians 13...Trust the Lord and He will guide you into all truth if you allow Him to. However, I must say that you will never find truth (especially today) if you don't seek it earnestly. God Bless | ||||||

Dear Psalm 25, Welcome to the Forum. I might suspect that some time becoming accustomed to the Forum and the regular posters might be in order before accusing some of "attacking" and using grandmotherly terms such as "shame on them" when your referring to adult bothers and sisters. In any case, you didn't seem to think that necessary. Perhaps a strait-forward education is in order here brother/sister. I'll keep it short: The majority of the regular poster here take the Terms of Use and the "About the Forum" guidelines seriously. When a poster comes along that does not take them seriously we usually approach it largely based on how the "offending" post(s) are presented. Sometimes it's simply a matter of redirecting a poster to the Terms of Use in order to remind him/her of the agreement he/she made when signing up. In some cases, this fails and a poster will continue to violate those terms (say, continuing to attempt to start a debate on a divisive issue- a clear violation) in spite of being encouraged not to. The debate (and it can certainly be called that) surrounding election and free will is long-standing. I can assure you that nothing you have posted so far and nothing you might post will add significantly to that. Furthermore, the debate has a history on this very Forum and can be studied by using the "Search" function. A good rule of thumb in an social situation is to watch and listen (in this case read) at least long enough to understand what is going on before drawing a conclusion and making a judgment about the situation. Hope this is helpful in getting you adjusted. God bless, Jeff |
