Specifically, Romans 8:29-30 teaches that those who were foreknown, were predestinated conformed to the image of His Son.
While I respect your efforts at trying to teach me otherwise, I know what the Bible teaches.
Paul delivered the Gospel, which includes their being chosen by God, .
Read my Threads and my Posts.
And perceive that im well acquainted with the Blood of Jesus.
By THAT Fruit, you shall know me.
The DEVIL will never teach the Cross, as i Do, and His ministers will never teach what i teach.
So, its not up to me to prove it to you.
Its up to you to learn how to see truth and hear deception.
Until you can do that, you'll wonder about me.
Thats on you, not on me.
Go to my "spot the Devil" Threads and learn how to hear the devil's gospel.
I teach you how.
Whenever I read comments about deception it's about the kind of deception that could trick 10s, 100s or 1000s of people. I never read anything about deception that could trick millions or billions of people.
How could I trick millions of people?
.
Actually I'm not going to wonder about you at all. I've heard it all before. Someone stands up and says something that's clearly wrong then claims to have the truth. And that's about it.
Exodus 20:8 “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Jesus didn't keep it, and He's God.
Jesus healed on the Sabbath, and not just once.... just to shut the mouths of religious fakirs, who were watching Him do it.
Not only did Jesus keep the Sabbath Luke 4:16 He was accused by the Pharisees of breaking God's Sabbath,
Are you suggesting Jesus is a liar and a sinner? I sure hope not!He was accused of not keeping the sabbath because He didn't keep it.
And He purposely healed in front of these religious sabbath keeping fakirs, to show them..
"I am the LORD of the Sabbath".
See, the law is lower than God.
God is the FINAL Authority, not the Law or Commandments.
God does not need any of that, as God is RIGHTEOUSNESS and HOLINESS, Itself.
Its man that was give the law and the 10, so that we can understand that we are NOT HOLY.
This knowledge, brings us to the place where we repent of our unbelief, and receive the Righteousness of God, that IS our Salvation.
"Born again".
Really? How about Catholic priests? (Or are you just ranting about Protestants?)
Don't you think that those in Matthew 7:21-23 called upon the name of the Lord when they prayed?God chooses (accepts) """"ALL who call on the name of Jesus shall be saved.""
"All" does not mean "all men" everywhere that we see it in the Scriptures."ALL" will never become "only the "elect", the way Calvin twisted the verse.
ALL will mean "EVERYONE", for as long as God lives.
I disagree.John 3:16, says that "whosoever, will believe", and that will never mean..>"just a few of the elect".
The Bible is not "Calvinism", neither does it warrant being classified as such.Calvinism, can. be ultra harmful.....especially when a person has gone off the deep end into "hyper Calvinism" ...which is a theological cancer on the Body of Christ that needs to be cut off.
I agree.Knowing how to spot the devil's ministers is to understand the Gospel of Grace, perfectly.
This is "Paul's Gospel".
I live by His every word ( Matthew 4:4, Luke 4:4 ), as do all of His people.Learn what that is, and live in this verse..... Hebrews 13:9.....and you can then hear the false gospel when a dark light teaches it .
I agree.
It is the same Gospel that Christ preached, the same that Peter, Phillip, Apollos, Aquila, Timothy and many others preached, and the same that all of His ministers preach...
...and it most definitely is not what is popularly preached today by the vast majority of those who preach a "gospel".
I live by His every word ( Matthew 4:4, Luke 4:4 ), as do all of His people.
But I thank you for the encouragement just the same.
I also know from the Scriptures that unless one of God's children is of full age and able to handle "strong meat", they will not be able to fully discern both good and evil ( Hebrews 5:14 ), including false teachers and teachings.
That said, it seems to me that you aren't willing to believe His every word, sir, and that saddens me.
Nevertheless, I wish you well and God's blessings upon your life.
Just so I understand. Keeping the commandments cannot be a fruit of the Spirit? Maybe I misunderstood.I came from a church that taught this same thing, that only the sacrifices were nailed to the cross, but not the Ten Commandments. However, what's not understood is every law of Israel were administered under the Levite Priest. If someone stole, committed adultery, etc, either sacrifices had to be done or, some other punishment. Each year the Priest went behind the vail to atone for the sins of all the people and it didn't matter what sin they had committed, which included the Ten Commandments When Jesus died on the cross, and when the vail was ripped, the sacrifices for sin administered by the Levi Priest in the temple, ceases. So there is no justification for keeping laws that were stopped due to Jesus's death.
God took care of this and He made the change. "I will put my laws into their hearts, and mind" was foretold in in the old testament.
Jeremiah 31:31, "Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the Lord: but this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; And after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts..."
The above scripture is telling us that the writing of God's laws in our hearts is not done by us, but by God's Spirit. Why do you think the vail was ripped?
Tell me what the Holy Spirit is able to accomplish in us? Either I accomplish it, or the Spirit accomplished it. If I accomplish it (that is keeping the Ten Commandments) then I'm not walking by the Spirit, I'm walking by the flesh. If the Spirit accomplished it, then the Power of God fulfills the righteousness of the law in me by producing His fruits of the Spirit; writing his laws in my mind and heart. Not my fruits. His fruits. Not what I do. What He does. Not keeping the Ten Commandments. His fruits given to us by the Spirit.
God bless you!
