Do you realise that you have just junked theological discussion out of hand as being of little importance? Do you need a chair so you can climb back on your high horse cause you seem to have fallen of? Give us a break, do you think your the only one working at the coalface.

Ain't that a fact, look what the apostle Paul admits, he knows all about a broken and contrite heart. This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.(1 Timothy 1:15) The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit...

Maybe it has something to do with his middle name Barrack Hussein Obama?

What chance do you think any of those thrown into the lake will be able to swim to shore?

I think the concept behind the phrase has to do with emphasis on a sense of finality. For example Paul's curses against those who proclaim a false gospel are multiplied to reinforce the seriousness of what he has to say.

Looks to me as if "eternal life", or "wrath", are consequential TO Stick to the topic of the thread. What does your election do? - What does it accomplish?

It is boasting, you are boasting of your humility..why the next man who is not saved, was not as humble as you.. Agreed - I wonder if he will be humble enough to admit it?

Bleitzel says - faith is not something man can boast in. Arc's reply 'I believed and I was credited as righteous by God' - is a boast. Boasting about surrender is not logical. Perhaps you could help Arc understand that. Then you can start on the rest of the Arminians who post here.

Arc says - Doesn't RTE have a thread about how Arminains "rubber stamp" terms? So just what does faith do? I mean, what does it do? It plugs us into Christs mind - Jesus faith [in the Father] is now our faith [in the Father - Jesus and the Father are one] We now have the mind of Christ...

asking 'what does election do?' is like asking 'what does friction do?' Friction is a result, a noun, not an action, a verb. You are trying to play dumb again. You ask 'What does friction do?" - It causes heat and resistance - that is what it accomplishes - that is what it does. So stop...

But how is it that you recognize the understanding of onmipotence as REALITY but the undersanding of omniscience as RIDICULOUS? Your reply shows you have poor comprehension skills. It is your view of omnipotence and omniscience which is ridiculous. They are the same, mirrored understandings. You...

Faith is not something that man can boast in. Did you choose Christ? Did Abraham believe God? Or did God believe God? You have avoided answering my question. Was that because it would reveal your boasting? I believed and I was credited as righteous by God This is your boast.

Do nouns do something? Elect is a status. God's chosen people. What does it do? Stop playing dumb and dumber. Election - what is it? - what does it accomplish? - what does it do? What does RTE think it "does"? What does Arc think it does? It describes a state of man from God's perspective. He's...

Anything that will strip the crown from the head of Christ, and crown the sinner as his own savior, they seem very willing to admit. An accurate description of Satans intent in the self-glorifing false doctrine of Arminianism.

Faith is not something that man can boast in. Did you choose Christ?

What does RTE think it "does"? What does Arc think it does?

"Power-ful" indicates the ability but not the compulsion. You dilute the attributes of God to suit your false theology. When we apply the term 'all-powerful' in relation to Gods attribute of omnipotence we do so in recognition of its reality, not its ability. So too should we call God...
