Can Calvinists explain this verse?

[Thursday]

Do you think unbelievers fear Him?

Not all believers do. Some believe that their election is unconditional.

 

[Hammster]

Not all believers do. Some believe that their election is unconditional.

That didn't answer the question. Do unbelievers fear Him?

 

[Thursday]

That didn't answer the question. Do unbelievers fear Him?

Of course not. That is irrelevant to the point. The point is that we must do what is right, not just believe.

 

[Hammster]

Of course not. That is irrelevant to the point. The point is that we must do what is right, not just believe.

Okay. I don't think I've ever said anything different.

Okay. I don't think I've ever said anything different.

You just said you thought believers would be saved. You are always playing semantics games in order to avoid the contradictions between your dogma and scripture.

 

[Hammster]

You don't think believers will be saved? I think believing is mentioned quite a bit in scripture.

Stop spinning.

Do now admit that faith alone is insufficient for salvation?

It's sufficient for righteousness, according to Paul. I'm sure you don't disagree with him.

You can never answer a straight question when your dogma is exposed. It's dishonest.

Either stand up for your dogma or reject it.

Faith is sufficient for righteousness.

“Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭5:1‬ ‭NASB‬‬

I'm sure you don't disagree with Paul, correct?

You are amazing.

Here is my question. Why are you afraid to answer it?

Do now admit that faith alone is insufficient for salvation?

 

[Hammster]

You are amazing.

Here is my question. Why are you afraid to answer it?

Do now admit that faith alone is insufficient for salvation?

I assume you are asking if I do NOW admit faith alone is sufficient for salvation. Since my last direct answer to your question seems to not be satisfactory to you, you will need to explain what you mean by salvation. Regeneration, justification, sanctification, and glorification are all parts and can be referred to as salvation, depending on context. So you will need to be specific so that I can give a more detailed answer.

 

[Hammster]

You are amazing.

Thanks.

What a beautiful verse. My heart would never find rest, if not for the finished work of Christ on my behalf, reconciling me to God.

Where is your honor? You don't know what salvation is?

Please don't flame. It's not necessary.

Regeneration, justification, sanctification, and glorification are all parts and can be referred to as salvation, depending on context. So you will need to be specific so that I can give a more detailed answer.

I posted a verse in regards to justification, but you found that insufficient.

 

[Thursday]

I am not flaming. You know very well what salvation is. You refuse to answer a simple question because it exposes the errors in your dogma.

If you have any honor you would answer this question:

Do now admit that faith alone is insufficient for salvation?

Romans 5:1. I will have to assume that you mean justification. So we are justified by faith. I've answered your question. Is there anything else?

You know that you didn't answer my question. Why do you say that you did? Does it make you feel better?

 

[Hammster]

If that

You know that you didn't answer my question. Why do you say that you did? Does it make you feel better?

If that didn't answer your question, then I apologize. I'm not understanding what you are asking. And I've asked for clarification. So I'm not sure what else I can do.
