Featured Ephesians 1 Verses 1-5

look in the mirror for that

 

You do not understand biblical election, in the english or the greek.
i remember Archangel dismantling you false postings not too long ago.

 

Your hatred and bias toward reformed theology pollutes your every effort to understand scripture. You don’t read scripture looking for truth, you read it looking for arguments against reformed theology.

Such efforts are doomed to fall into error, as evidenced by nearly every thread you start, every sound response you ignore and every hateful comment you post.

peace to you

 

I'd like to answer this, if I may, and I believe that it has been pointed out in other threads:

" Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
71 He spake of Judas Iscariot [the son] of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve." ( John 6:70-71 ).

Judas was specifically chosen by the Lord Jesus in order to fulfill the prophecies in the Psalms ( John 17:11-12, Acts of the Apostles 1:16-20 ).

 

That isn't what the Scriptures say, SBG.
It says this:

" While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled." ( John 17:12 ).

I encourage you to believe the words as they are on the page, my friend.
He was lost so that the Scripture would be fulfilled.

That is what the Lord Jesus said.

 

If I may ask, what is it about the words on the page that you find difficult to believe?

I agree, to an extent.

 

Absolutely correct. There is no desire for seeking truth. Just an obsession with striking out about the truth of the historic confessional understanding of these blessed truths

 

You are looking for an out.
I am very aware of the various covenants. The Old Testament corresponds to the Abrahamic Covenant, which is still in effect, while believers today are blessed by both the Abrahamic Covenant and the New Covenant.
The fact is that all of scripture proves you wrong, yet you are so prideful and stubborn that you will fight God's word to cling to your own misguided thoughts. Many people have graciously corrected you. It's time for you to repent.

 

So in the past some of the ratings icons were removed because they were abused by using them to show displeasure in posts when that wasnt their intent. Kind of like using the smiling icon for a serious post that has no humor in it nor was there any humor intended. Its childish

 

He has been shown this but clings to imagined false concepts in opposition to the positive Covenant atonement.
