AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 1:20 For ever since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through His workmanship [all His creation, the wonderful things that He has made], so that they [who fail to believe and trust in Him] are without excuse and without defense.

Subject: Is God somehow responsible? |
Bible Note: "I am always amazed at the length one has to go to redefine the terms in Scripture to uphold Calvinism. 'All' doesn't really mean 'all'. 'World' doesn't really mean 'world'. 'Everyone' doesn't really mean 'everyone'." I find my own eyes popping out of their skulls watching your side with Romans 9 and John 6. What we do with words, you do with passages! Truly awe-inspiring work! :) Your brother in Christ, Joe! P.S. I was a little troubled by your comments regarding the Christ-church/husband-wife analogy from Ephesians 5. Is there no distinction between how Jesus loves the church and how he loves the rest of humanity? My wife would be pretty upset if I came to her and said that I need to exercise the same self-sacrifice toward every other woman that I show toward her. I think I will let you tell her! :) |
