    Yet another personal attack, now we have the implication that someone unnamed is void of understanding.

    Here is the truth, 1 Corinthians 3:1-3 teaches men of flesh can understand, because of common grace, the spiritual milk of the gospel. Men of flesh, cannot understand spiritual meat, the things of the Spirit being addressed in 1 Corinthians 2:14.

    Christ dying for all mankind provides the common grace of the opportunity for salvation to all. 1 Timothy 2:4-6.

    And the common grace of the gospel is the power of God for salvation. No special grace needed. Romans 1:16.

    Here is a snippet from the long blurb. "Grace is never conditioned by faith," But just take a gander at Ephesians 2:8, For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God;

    The advocates of the nameless doctrine seem to have thrown Ephesians 2:8 on their discard pile. :)

    Van,

    As has been demonstrated, the unnamed doctrines views of Common grace are unbiblical and bogus.

    The men of Matthew 23:13 were seeking God, therefore total spiritual inability is bogus, and the lost enjoy of common grace of being able to understand spiritual milk, 1 Cor. 3:1-3.

    Christ dying for all mankind provides the common grace of the opportunity for salvation to all. 1 Timothy 2:4-6.

    And the common grace of the gospel is the power of God for salvation. No special grace needed. Romans 1:16.

    15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

    16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

    17 And their word will eat as doth a canker

    I do my best to study to show myself approved. Some might see my efforts as missing the mark. But then if the mark was clear to them, they might reference it. :)

    Here is the truth, 1 Corinthians 3:1-3 teaches men of flesh can understand, because of common grace, the spiritual milk of the gospel. Men of flesh, cannot understand spiritual meat, the things of the Spirit being addressed in 1 Corinthians 2:14.

    Van,
    ,
    really????
    if the person "void of understanding" was "unnamed".....and now you claim this is a personal attack???? would that mean you are now attacking yourself?

    cutting and pasting your own error does not make it turn to truth....still an off topic post. just tacking on the words common grace, does not insure you are speaking on the topic.

    Yet another off topic personal attack containing no rebuttal or response to the Biblical view of common grace presented in post # 70.

    Simply put, common grace refers to the blessings from God available to all mankind, such as salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. Supporting this blessing is our God given ability to understand the milk of the gospel. And this gospel, the work product of the Holy Spirit, is yet another blessing for all mankind.

    Christ dying for all mankind provides the common grace of the opportunity for salvation to all. 1 Timothy 2:4-6.

    And the common grace of the gospel is the power of God for salvation. No special grace needed. Romans 1:16.
