Did anyone actually watch the video? The pastor was caught chatting with detectives posing as a 14 year old girl. He was documented exposing his genitals to the "14 year old girl" via his webcam. The police came to serve a warrant and he killed himself rather than face the punishment for his...

Vince, you have still not addressed the text laid out in front of you. Trying to change the topic to education is dishonest and extremely aggravating. Please address the posts that were in response to you.

No, it teaches that no man can come to Christ unless the Father draws him, and Jesus Christ will raise him up (he that is drawn) at the last day. Please show me, using the text, how John 6:44 distinguishes between those who are drawn and those who are raised.

Count me as one of the inquiring minds.

You have yet to support this argument using the text provided. Please show us exegetically. My loyalty has always and will always be to the Bible and it's doctrines. The fact is, the doctrine of election is Biblical and there can be no doctrine of election if the sovereign election (or choice)...

Tonight I will dream of all the ways Vince will attempt to wiggle out of this snafu he has backed into. :thumbsup:

Do not believe for a second that your sins are not forgiven. Jesus Christ shed His blood for your sins and they are forgotten and you are forgiven. The world wants you to believe its lies because its ruler is the father of lies. Pray and read the Bible frequently and you will be strengthened to...

:thumbsup: Enough said.

As a preface, If you reread my original comment I am in agreement with works being edifying and showing the love of God. My comment was based on those who overemphasize the works such as Tony Campolo. If you do not believe that one is saved by grace alone through faith alone you are NOT a...

Could you please support this statement with factual evidence? Tony Campolo peddles a watered down version of the gospel sometimes labeled as the "social gospel" and refers to the doctrine of heaven as "pie in the sky when you die by and by." His theology is based on bringing the kingdom of...

I understood the post from the first read and enjoyed it! Thanks for posting it friend. :thumbsup:

We are specifically talking about profanity and filthy language. If you are a Christian, you understand that the world system owns the darkness. Profanity and filthy language is of the darkness and not of the light. Scripture says plenty negative about profane and filthy language. (2 Timothy...

The world owns profanity. Profanity is not of God, it is of the world. Using profanity tarnishes your witness because it reflects the world and not the glory of God. There is no reason for a Christian to consciously drop a f-bomb. Period. If you are a Christian you are called to be a child of...

There is not a solid answer on this issue. Living costs are different across the U.S., responsibilities differ, some have to pay for their own housing. A lot of different factors go into a pastor's salary. Personally, I don't think a pastor anywhere, with any sized flock, should make over...

What does this mean??? By definition, Baptists are Protestants Vince.

I agree Andy. The only part of Jacob's post I find offensive is, "Learn history before you speak on it." I would imagine Jacob would not use that tone if addressing Vince in a church setting. We as Christians should refute error, however we must do it in a loving and edifying way. In saying...

Be very conscious of your speaking. Consciously think about what you are going to say before speaking. After a while of doing this you will break the habit of cussing and will become more articulate. Some folks like to use minced oaths to try to break the habit. Things like...darn it, son of a...

There is a lot there to respond to, yet I don't think I can without violating the forum's new moratorium on Calvinism. The soteriology forum is supposed to be up by the beginning of the year. I look forward to discussing your last post in the future.

Thanks for the heads up! My mistake, I will have to edit that.

There are many online seminary programs to choose from. Liberty Seminary's president is Ergun Caner. How he became a seminary president is beyond my understanding. I suggest you look him up on youtube. That's all I will say about that.
