the watchman

they guess my English skills made it look like it.. it is armn calvinist section there is one guy pretty easy to get along with. the others well lets just say .they have no problem saying your wrong. i have been suspended several times . i dont mind discussing the difference the calvinist has some good points .. but when it comes to your either the elect or not to be saved i draw the line . the big one is children going to heaven they say its not in the Bible if babies go to heaven or hell they have to be the elect.

aww carm i post the forum there gets rather interesting it usually ends up being told i am false teaching lol

it is choice

1 John 5:13 These things I have written unto you that believe in the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God. 14 And this is the confidence that we have in Him: that if we ask anything according to His will, He heareth us. 15 And if we know that He hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him. Hebrews 4:16 16 Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. lets get the message out so they will know

i can say with out any doubt i have a know so salvation

i posted this in the wrong section can it be moved?

ok i was being nice and respectful... understand this if you have poo poo get your depends changed i have not veered away from any scripture period... your belief lines right up with calvinism . i really have no intent on exchanging who is right who is wrong .. my doctrine can beat up your doctrine . i find it useless and tasteless. i like a spirited exchange of beliefs. but i will no longer respond to your poo poo remarks 1 Timothy 2:4 “Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.” (this is just one of many scripture i stand by ) have a good night

here is MY POINT i am not going to beat a dead horse nor will i try and to make the mule understand that is a new gate.. dont take offense it is just a phrase i use .

appreciate the suggestion i have read them and you are about as close to calvinism as they come.. not my first rodeo i post in a calvinism forum also and debate them very heavy . sometimes i get my hands spanked for remarks..

awwww pilot chose his own fate

lol you tell me but they can be saved just like us in fact there are underground churches . and Chinese born again preachers we all have to come by the way of the cross ("ALL" does not mean all all the time, it needs to be taken into contex with all of scripture.) well this country boy believes All mean all i am hosting a Reunion of my home town next saturday and i have said all is invited . i could have said only those who lived and went to school in Grandin mo can come.. see Grandin does not just cover a small town many roots tie in there. so Christ tasted death so all men could be saved . you sure have some beliefs that ties in to reformed theology

the whosoever shall romans 10 john3:16 i mistook you as calvinist with the free will comment

the whosoever gets the unmerited favor as per Grace we can,t even begin to fully understand how a ol sinner like me can get saved. yes as said early on he draws us calls us chooses us. but we have to accept the free gift i guess i be a free wilier are you calviniller ?

i will be teaching this chapter in the morning.. i have a some what grasp on it.it has lots of meat in it and very historical in nature. i love how the author ( i believe apostle Paul ) ties in the priest hood using Melchizedek . a man who has no genealogy recorded to be a high priest . then ties it in with Jesus our high priest . all thoughts are welcome. my only request is it be i am right and your wrong posting. we are all in this race together and i believe in helping each other complete the race

i AGREE I DID LOOK SOME AT THE man behind got questions didn't see a lot honestly we all have our quirks while he is not a preacher that i know of. a former pastor once said preaching is like eating chicken eat the meat throw the bones away

i can honestly say my belief has come from study . i have studied out southern baptist i am ordained through the gen baptist. they are a pretty free denom for the most. i think some of the Pentecostals have good teachings.. some areas i disagree with .the Biggest problem we face is if gma or gpa said it then it must be true. study t out for your self

i have used qot question in study. i use a wide variety of commentates. i also google subjects . a example i might do a search on abundant life . granted you will find things that are in left field so to speak.. i did a search one time on a lively hope came up with a dynamite title for a message a living hope by a living God . a person just has to use caution in your search.

i was just reading their statement of faith seen nothing pointing toward calvinism .. is there something i am over looking?

if i might say with out kicking the golden cow again... this is a really good post about paul thorn in the flesh.. which imo was all those who opposed his ministry .lets face it was not the most popular guy in the land.. he rocked the boat heavy from going to be chief prosecutor to preaching Jesus . either the thorn what ever it might be had its purpose 7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. 8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. 9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. so we see what the Lord had to say about it his Grace (what a wonderful thing ) Paul accepted that grace . how many of us can say with our thorn we take pleasure in it. if you have never had a thorn you must not be in any type ministry . i have been pastor at churches i watched the flesh literally tear and break it down. that is hard to accept his grace is sufficient. but one thing for sure you learn and grow from it and become stronger that is my 2 cents { this is a very good post many good comments } some i agree with some i dont . but hey how boring it would be if every one was just like me.

thought the link would work

i posted the image i have used it before to explain body soul spirit we are made up of 3 parts soul is where on conscious is mind emotions spirit==GOD conciseness Body world conciseness in reality its much like trying to explain the trinity father son Holy Ghost they work as one but are still seperate
