Subject: Predestination: scriptures meaningless? |
Bible Note: JR doc, You wrote: "But, even in your theology "if it is a choice" it still must be a forgiven choice, or else you make salvation a "work" and not by grace alone. And this is what you explained and is what you believe, but not what the Scripture asserts. " What the scripture asserts: John 3:18"He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. "...he who does not believe is condemned already..." If we make the choice to believe in the name of Christ, then we do not need to be forgiven for choosing unbelief: "He who believes in Him is not condemned..." You said:"Salvation by Arminian Free-will Choice: Impossible (John 1:13) " Put into context: John 1:12But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: 13who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. John 1:12But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: John 1:12But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: God bless, Pastor Glenn |
