It is written and clearly seen throughout the WHOLE Word of God.that we are given the alternative to choose to accept or to reject God, and His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Unless a person does not know how to read, or how comprehend what he reads, or how to use his/her common sense it cannot be...

Many are called but few are chosen because few "believe." The chosen are the ones who believe by their freedom of will.

The above statement is in reverse and does not line up with Scripture. They were called BECAUSE they believe --- NOT because they "have been called" 'past tense' or were predetermined by God to believe, which is Fatalism. God gave man a choice. Fatalism says you have no choice. And if you have...

The above information is not what the Word of God teaches. Scripture does not say that God pre-selected those He deicded to be saved or not saved. That is Fatalism, which is false doctrine. The Word of God teaches that "them who love God" are "the called." God has not predestined certain...

The "ELECT" are the "whosoevers"--- ALL who BELIEVE IN CHRIST for they shall not perish but have eternal life....PERIOD. To teach contrary to John 3:16 is to teach against the truth....PERIOD.

Unfortunately it is not plain to see by those who refuse to see the truth. It's written right in front of you in black and white! :unbelievable:

Let's just say I made my point and you got it.

:nono: MamaZ Romans 8:28: And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose. Romans 8:29: For whom [them that love God] he did FOREKNOW, he also did predestinate [to be] conformed to the image of his Son, that he...

:scratch: You ain't figured out if you have free will or not? So you're saying that you are not sure if you are being controlled or manipulated like a puppet on God's strings or progammed like a robot! How very sad! :sad: Well, Rick, I have no problem telling you how I know it was not an...

Man was born in sin but he was also born with freedom of will to choose to obey or not to obey God. God says we have the freedom of will to resist the devil and he shall flee. What you say is against what God says. So whom am I going to believe? You or God. God of course.

You should, but please don't cry over it.. ;) You figure it out, if you can.

According to you, if God did not create Adam with freedom of will, then Adam was predestined by God to disobye Him. :doh: By the way, God did not predestine those He chose to be saved.. He predestined those He knew in His FOREKNOWLEDGE would believe His Word and love Him. I showed you this...

Luke 16:19-30 is not true to fact, but a "Parable." 19. There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: 20. And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, 21. And desiring to be fed with the...

Every time Peter denied knowing Christ, it was by his own freedom of will. God tells us NOT to sin, but when a person sins it's because God predestined him to sin? :confused: How utterly ridiculous! :doh:

God created man with the ability/freedom of will to choose. The thief can only steal the Word from people who allow him to do so by the freedom of their own will. Adam willfully chose by his own freedom of will to disobey God.
