Subject: Mark 16:16 what does it say? |
Bible Note: Hello Steve, And...and you are saying then that God literaly chooses certain people and others He destins to burn in Hell? Is this correct? Now before you write back answer the above question first. Then while you are writing read; John 3 16For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that WHOEVER believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 2 Peter 3 9The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us,[1] not willing that ANY should perish but that ALL should come to repentance. Matthew 11 28Come to Me, ALL you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. I use the next verse to show that it works both ways with God Luke 13 3I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will ALL likewise perish. Acts 2 38Then Peter said to them, "Repent, and LET EVERY ONE OF YOU be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. And there are many more. And my last question to you is how can you put these verses into your belief that God draws us to Himself. These verses show that a person must be "willing" not under mind manipulation. The only way God draws us is by reading His word. Romans 10 17So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Raven |
