Answer me this
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Rev 12:9
For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. 1 Tim 2:13,14
And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired [lusted after] to make one wise, she took of the... -
Salvation in Two separate and Distinct Steps
Here are the typical questions used to defend a mistaken view of the Good News.
If Christ ransomed all mankind, why is all mankind not saved?
If He was purchased all mankind, why is all mankind not saved.?
If God is propitiated towards all men, what does He still have against them?
If all men have been redeemed, why is all mankind not saved?
If God is reconciled to all men, why do we need to beg for people to be reconcilied?
If only those placed in Christ are saved, what is the criteria for... -
The main plotline of the whole Bible
God’s promise to Abraham (formerly Abram) is the reversal of Adam’s curse, and sets up the narrative drive for the whole Biblical storyline.
Genesis 12:1-3
Now the Lord said to Abram,
“Go forth from your country,
And from your relatives
And from your father’s house,
To the land which I will show you;
And I will make you a great nation,
And I will bless you,
And make your name great;
And so you shall be a blessing;
And I will bless those who bless you,
And the one who curses you I will... -
What happened to Adam and Eve when they sinned?
When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was desirable to make one wise, she took from its fruit and ate; and she gave also to her husband with her, and he ate. Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loin coverings.
When Adam and Eve sinned, they infected creation with perversion, corruption, and destruction, all prior to any... -
In what manner was Adam created/made
מוֹת תָּמֽוּת
From Gen 2:17 dying thou dost die
Had Adam not eaten of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil would the following verse have applied.
Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed—
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 1 Cor 15:50,51,53
Consider; Gen 3:19 By... -
Software Use in Bible Translation
There are a variety of programs that can help translators, but none that do the actual translating. Actual translation software is like Google Translate: you have to physically type in or copy and paste what you want translated. There are no actual AI programs that do the translating themselves after simply being commanded to. So, this thread will be about the software packages and other electronic helps that can be of use to a translator. By all means, join in.

1 John 2:2
I know this has probably been articulated here. But how do you Calvinists (I am one) handle 1 JOhn 2:2?
He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.
Did Jesus die in the same way for the sin of every single person, without exception, who has ever lived on the planet? -
Univeralism?
Therefore, as one trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all men. (Romans 5:18 ESV)
Since the Greek grammar construction of the first phrase "condemnation for all humans" is the same as for the second phrase "justification for all humans" the verse seems to suggests universalism.
Condemnation was applied to all humans in the first phrase, so why not also apply justification to all humans based on the second phrase? -
How were the OT saints saved?
This is reviving a thread made 22 years ago on this Forum.
Before Christ died on the cross, what did a person have to do in order to have eternal life? -
Preaching Theology
I was converted in '69 when 19 under the ministry of Tim La Haye at Scott Memorial Baptist Church in San Diego. Yes, Tim preached Theology, but only re the Second Coming..
Since then in my scores of years of believing, I've never heard a sermon in any church which I attended a message entirely devoted to informing listeners of the doctrines of the Trinity, the deity of Christ, the natures in Christ, original sin , different views on baptism or refuting cults. Yet the NT is filled with...
