Featured Jesus Died For ALL our sins, so what does refusal to confess Do?

No change with you, you provide no scripture, there's no indication on your part of any thought or meditation of your own concerning the deep truths of scripture, you just parrot the status quo of the evangelicals. Let's take it one at a time, I'll make it easier for you; concerning Abraham only:

Was it an unrighteous man that Jehovah called out of Mesopotamia years before Gen 15:6, appeared to several times, and announced blessings upon?

Was it an unregenerate man that built an altar to Jehovah at Shechem years before Gen 15:6?

Was it to a dead alien sinner that Melchizedek pronounced 'Blessed be Abram of God Most High' years before Gen 15:6?

I think not. God had already wrought within him as revealed in Jn 3.

Now explain to me how Abraham could have been a 'natural man' prior to Gen 15:6.

C'mon JesusFan/Dechaser1/Yeshua1, think outside of the box.

 

Explain to me how Abraham could have been a 'natural man' prior to Gen 15:6.

 

many, i've posted many times, contrary to you that have posted zilch nada none zero showing that the two ocur simultaneously as you claim.

 

When are we regenerated? When we are made alive together with Christ!

When are we made alive together with Christ. When God puts us in Christ!
When are we saved? When we undergo the circumcision of Christ!
When do we undergo the circumcision of Christ? When we are baptized into His death!
When are we baptized into His death? When we are baptized into Christ!
When are we baptized into Christ. When God has the Holy Spirit set us apart in Christ!
When does God set us apart in Christ? When God credits our faith as righteousness!
When are we justified? When are we forgiven? When are we saved? When are we redeemed? When are we regenerated? When are we sealed with the Holy Spirit? When are we predestined to adoption, the redemption of our bodies? The answer is the same in all cases: When God chooses us for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and faith in the truth.

 

They don't, and Calvin himself did not believe that to be the case:

 

Scripture is clear, we are set apart in Christ, where we are regenerated, made alive, made holy and blameless and perfect, through faith in the truth. You do not enter a room through a door unless you first go through the door, then into the room. Thus every verse that says we are saved through faith teaches absolutely faith before regeneration and salvation, and justification and whatever else folks throw in to muddy the water. It is crystal.

 

Yeshua1, how can you ask the same question and never acknowledge the plain and simple answer? Being spiritually dead means the person is separated from God, but does not mean they are unable to hear and understand God's revelation. Recall Matthew 13:1-23? The four soils, three of which received the gospel, but only one was saved? Therefore some unregenerate, spiritually dead people can hear and understand the gospel. Your assertion has again been shown by scripture to be mistaken. What is this, the 100th time?? What about Matthew 23:13 and the men who were entering heaven, thus seeking God while spiritually dead? You have been shown this verse over and over, too!

You deny God credits our faith as righteousness or not!
You deny God sets us apart in Christ!
You deny we are made alive - regenerated - together with Christ, i.e. when we are placed in Christ.
You deny we are chosen by God for salvation through faith in the truth!

 

This was in regards to Judith asking Quantum if Romans 10:9 is to be taken literal - I presume referring to "if thou shalt confess with thy mouth"...

If literal, the next question would then be, What if the person cannot speak? No hope eh?

Sorry if I took your punch line Judith.

 

To which I say ...



Take that! :laugh:

 

:thumbsup:

 

What is the idea of needing to confess with our mouth before men to be saved? Surely, we are not saved by works but by faith. So, as James pointed out, we show our faith by our works. If we are not willing to risk ridicule and marginalization, we lack faith in Christ.

 

As usual, nonsense. Three, not one, three not one, three not one, received the gospel. Your mistaken view claims only one would receive the gospel, the others would reject it because they hate God. Totally false.

And again in Matthew 23:13, it does not matter whether they were elect or not, take you pick. If elect, and therefore being compelled by irresistible grace according to your mistaken Calvinism, they were blocked. Thus the grace needed to be "entering heaven" was not irresistible. And if they were not elect, and they were not, then they were "entering heaven" by seeking God, something again you claim will not happen. So yet again, you have denied scripture and posted nonsense.
