  • 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.

I am one His Sheep.......so I will never perish.


Your not one of His sheep? You can still perish?

His sheep hear his voice and follow. If a person doesn’t keep following they will not receive eternal life. Hence remain in me and I will remain in you John 15:1-8. Following is not a one time action it is a way of life my friend.

I am one of His sheep........John 10:28 tells me I have eternal life and will never, no not ever perish.

So you seriously don't consider yourself one of His sheep at this time?

Yes I do consider myself one of His sheep because I do follow Him. Of course I do fail sometimes but I never give up trying.

So, Please STOP trying to convince His sheep that they can or might perish. John 10:28 emphatically tells you( His sheep) that you will NEVER,NO NOT EVER PERISH.

If you consider yourself His sheep at this time ,you MUST cease and desist telling His sheep that they may perish(loss salvation)...........Because John 10:28 is TRUTH for His sheep.

Why didn’t you answer the questions in post #367? I think it’s because you know the answer but you don’t like it.

My point is that if a believer begins committing these sins listed in these verses they will not be saved regardless of whether they believe or not.
Even though Jesus said whoever believes POSSESSES eternal life and that those He gives eternal life (believers) shall never, no, not ever, perish???

Why do you insist on opposing what Jesus so plainly taught?

And where in the Bible is the teaching that "certain sins" will keep any believer out of heaven?

Do you not understand that any time you "do fail" you're NOT following Him???

To fail is to be moving in the opposite direction of what He commands.

Do you know of a verse that speaks of any sheep becoming something else? Can a sheep become a goat?

Can a sheep become a non-sheep?

Can a child become a non-child? Or an un-child?

Do you begin to see the ridiculousness of your line of thought here?

It should be OBVIOUS what my answer is.
No, we don't have to keep following to remain His sheep.

You claim that you still fail.................thats not following. Did you become a goat again when you failed?

And John 10:28 does NOT say, " only those sheep who perfectly follow me, I give eternal life and will never perish."

Eph 2:8. 'Have been saved' is a periphrastic PERFECT.

You have been saved in the past and those results remain today and FOREVER.....Emphatically stated. No loopholes.

I disagree with you.
I never said they were saved in the first place.
If I did, my answer would have been different.

Yes His word tells us all we need to know.

If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.
Revelation 14:9-11


If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand,


He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone


Your false doctrine just got exposed.

Your inconsistencies and the fact that you pit scripture against scripture is constantly being exposed.

John 10:28~~His sheep NEVER perish. You don't accept that clear Fact.

Yet, on the other hand you will accept the clear fact that if anyone worships the beast and receives his mark........He SHALL be tormented with fire and brimstone.

Since His sheep can never perish, a believer will not and cannot take the mark. Because all that do take the mark WILL perish.

It's ironic that your dogmatic that all who take the mark WILL perish. But you don't give one hoot about the dogmatic truth that believers will NEVER,NO NOT EVER perish.

There are no scripture nconsistencies in any of the doctrines I present because I direct people to Jesus and His words.


You and FG just state your opinion and tag your opinion with a scripture reference rather than the actual words of scripture, then you only refer to half of what Jesus said and leave out the context.


Example.

“Jesus gives eternal life to His sheep and they will never perish. John 10:28”


I have watch you two deceivers do this for years, and even when called out you still continue to hide your false doctrine
In this deceptive ploy.


This is the mark of a false teacher.
