  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Since according to you, anyone practicing sin is not born again, how many times now have you been born again? . . . . . makes more sense.
Whatever. You're viewing it through your theologically tinted glasses. The question wasn't addressed to you.

matt 18:21 Then came Peter to him, and said Lord, How often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? seven times?

matt 18:22 Jesus said unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but until seventy times seven.

how many times will God forgive without asking.... wow

What do you mean, "without asking"? Where is "not asking" for forgiveness implied?

this is a verse of brother in Christ sinning against one another.... the one offended need to forgive...

Not send them to Hell the second time ... as Ben Johnson preaches

Matt 9:13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the self righteous, but sinners .


romans 4:5

1jn 3:2 Beloved, now are we the children of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is.

are always righteous or are we counted for righteousness since we have been place into Christ romans 4:2-8

Don't add words to the passage. "self" is nowhere found in it.

so is it God's righteousness or self righteousness...


in the greek it states this....

Righteousness from man, pleasing to God that allows God to call him "blameless".

"Noah was a righteous man, blameless among his contemporaries; Noah walked with God."
Genesis 6:9

Yet he also got drunk then raped by his own son
gen 9:20-22... first homosexual act

ministers of righteousness .. 2 cor 11:15

what kind romans 10:3 their own

Stick with Noah. Was he are not, righteous??? Explain him away if you can, then I'll give you 25 more in the OT to do the same with..

GEN 6 ... READ FOR YOURSELF

ido not have a bible at this time...

but what is your point in trying to railroad the subject at hand

Abraham call right gen 15:6 yet sinned in gen 15:8 in doubt God..

If the train is traveling with only one wheel on the track it will never start to get to where it is intended to go.

Romans 4:16-17 calleth those things which be not as though they were.... not righteous but called righteous because he obeyed and mental believed a promise!

My question was, why should one expect forgiveness without being required to ask for it?

:idea: I don't think that originated with nbf ...
No one born of God makes a practice of sinning 1 Jn 3:9
Ah, Scripture. The main reason for being a Calvinist.

Does that mean I can keep sinning? It won't matter? Is forgiveness unconditional? Is forgiveness even an issue by His death. Or is His death but the doorway to forgiveness? And if I know that it is, must I not walk through it?

Man goes to hell for unbelief not sins

Belief or unbelief in what or whom?

Does the righteous man [not self-righteous] go to hell because he never heard of Jesus Christ?

If you believe that I have to say you don't understand what redemption is.
