Bible Question:
See here is the problem you said you read scripture and it says your right. I say you read scripture wrong. Example 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance. I see "all" and to me "all" means all. You say however that "all" only means the ones that God elected. Now we can debate this scripture from here until tomorrow and I will probably continue to see all will see only those called. Who is wrong? If your in my camp you are. If your in your camp I am. Does that mean one of us is in sin. I think not that means one of us sees a passage different. It really doesn't change anything as far as the work of the cross. It just makes us think the other can't read. |
Bible Answer: Surely you can read this passage and see that the all is referring back to the "us" (KJV). "The LORD is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but, is longsuffering to USWARD, not willing that any (of the USWARD--INHZSVC) should persish" |
