Happy Thanksgiving!

I just have to ask - I've been married for 25 years, love my wife, couldn't imagine ever not having her in my life - is there anyone else here like this? I don't see a whole lot of that in these boards. Don't get me wrong we've had our struggles - raising three kids, dealing with sickness...

In regards to Romans 8:29 I have often heard the argument made that the word "foreknown" means that God foresaw who would believe and elected his people based upon that knowledge. I am not at all convinced this is what the word is supposed to mean but rather it means that God would elect his...

But I am definately not .... Thus proving yet again that every Calvinist does not agree with everything Calvin taught... Merry Christmas to all regardless of your theology. May this season be filled with joy and peace for you and yours!

This situation just gets more bizarre by the day... Acts 29 Removes Mars Hill, Asks Mark Driscoll To Step Down and Seek Help | Gleanings | ChristianityToday.com

The reason that election cannot be based on unforeseen faith is found in Romans 9:8-13. In this passage Paul is explaining why the promises of God were still effectual in spite of the fact that many Jews were rejecting the gospel and gentiles were accepting it in great numbers. In verses...

Is this guy for real? WORLD | Unreal sales for Driscoll’s Real Marriage | Warren Cole Smith | March 5, 2014

I think that for the most part you have a good understanding of the text. However I would politely disagree with your point on verse 15. I don't think that Paul was responding to some erroneous belief on the part of the Roman Christians in OSAS. I believe that more than likely Paul is...

The doctrine of original sin is clearly taught in scripture as is evident from the passage in Romans 5:12-21. The apostle John confirms this doctrine in 1 John 1:8-10: "8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and...

Merry Christmas Brothers and Sisters, Rejoice - you didn't choose Christ but He chose you!

Thanks - if God is in control of people's lives then it would be logical to assume that he is in control of their will. Regardless of this being God's discipline - it still shows that God has ultimate control over the will. My point stands.

In his book "The Christian in Complete Armour," William Gurnall makes an excellent point regarding the nature of our relationship with God compared to that of Adam's prior to his fall in the garden: "God would never have allowed His first workmanship to be so scarred by sin if He had not...

With reluctance I admit that my family and I were fans of the show when we first found out about it a year or so ago. The initial draw for us was indeed a family that seemed to portray Christian values and were pretty funny at the same time. Admittedly that draw has worn off over the summer...

It's just not fair that I have blue eyes! By golly I don't want blue eye! It's a horrible injustice that I was born with blue eyes. Whose fault is that?!!! And while I'm at it why do I have freckles on my left knee?!! That is bloody not fair! Who do I blame for that? What an injustice...

I will premises this post by stating that when I say regeneration I believe it is the same thing as being born again. Being born is not the same thing as faith. They are two separate things and in order to have faith to be able to be saved you must be born again. This is clearly seen in Jesus'...
