AMPLIFIED 2015 | John 3:16 ¶ "For God so [greatly] loved and dearly prized the world, that He [even] gave His [One and] only begotten Son, so that whoever believes and trusts in Him [as Savior] shall not perish, but have eternal life. |
Subject: Are we ever "worthy" of God's love? |
Bible Note: So there are whole segments of the creation that God isn't concerned about and doesn't care if they are saved? I believe the tension exists in scripture because we are taught that man plays some kind of role in salvation. There is a choice. It may have no implicit power but the Word says 'if you...' if there's no choice that statement is a lie. I don't adhere to a hard line on either reformed or armenian because I don't believe scripture does. I take no offense with your comments my brother. I accept the fact that I may be wrong in my views. |
