The fundamental causes of mankind's sin nature.
Genesis 3:22, And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: . . .
Mankind acquiring God's knowledge of good and evil. That knowledge of evil causes mankind whom had only been made to be finite good to become sinful. And that knowledge of good to be self condemned.

Can Predestination and Free Will Coexist?
I'm fairly new here and have seen some recent discussion on this topic. Recently I picked up Normal Geisler's "Chosen But Free". He believed that there could be a middle ground between Calvinism and Arminianism. These are a few passages in his book.
This is not to say there are no mysteries in the Christian faith. Paul said, "Great indeed... is the mystery of godliness" (1 Tim. 3:16). But a mystery is a truth that goes beyond reason without going against reason. It is beyond our ability to... -
Limited Atonement insanity.
Where limited Atonement is actually believed and taught, by what Scripture can any lost persons have any grounds to know they were included in Christ's atonement for one's sins?
Luke 8:13, They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
Matthew 7:21, Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father... -

God Given Faith
GOD GIVEN FAITH
Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
The faith of God's elect is a gracious, God given revelation of who he is and what he has accomplished in their place, in the obedience unto death of Christ. It is knowing him, as he is and knowing how his satisfactory work before God the Father pertains to us.

Is Belief A Law?
Galatians 2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

One more evidence against KJV onlyism.
Exodus 12:40.
And not merely a KJV error.
NASB
NIV
NKJV
ESV

Problem of there being an actual crucifixion date.
Julian date April 7, 30 A.D. Friday Nisan 16 for the 14th.
Julian date April 3, 33 A.D. Friday Nisan 14.
Julian date April 5, 30 A.D. Wedensday Nisan 14.
Julian date April 6, 30 A.D. Thursday Nisan 15.
There are also other proposed dates.
The problem, all these dates and others are being denied by professing Christians.
At issue, if there can be no actual Biblically possible crucifixion date, there can be no resurrection.
Personally, I am persuaded Julian date April 6, 30 A.D. Nisan 15th... -
Entering the Kingdom
When God takes an individual out of being "in Adam" and transfers them spiritually into Christ's spiritual body, they are made alive together with Christ. Thus a spiritually "dead" individual is made spiritually alive by the washing of regeneration (regeneration = made alive). Since in an unholy sinful state we are separated from our holy God, the "washing" removes whatever was "unholy" such as what God held against us.
The OT saints did not immediately enter the kingdom when they obtained... -
15 Nisan
Some confusion seems to exist on why Jesus could not have been crucified on 15 Nisan.
15 Nisan is the second day of unleavened bread, the first day of the Festivsl of Unleavened Bread, and the day after the Passover.
The 14th of Nisan is Passover (it marks when death passed over the Jews in Ecodus).
The 15th is the day God delivered the Jews from Egypt.
The 16th through the 20th is Chol HaMoed.
The 21st is another high day.
No work could be done on the 15th and the 21st.
These two days...
