    that is not the issue here! you are avoiding what I have written, because you know it is the truth, but you don't like it, as it challenges your "theology"!

    Do you think that a person is saved if he sells his possessions and gives the proceeds to the poor?

    I mean, that's what Jesus said, or is it???

    It is the issue, and please stop with the personal attacks or I'll put you right to the top of the ignore list.

    Got some scripture that says they were not elect? Or are you just making this up as you go along?

    My friend, the Bible clearly says that ONLY the Jewish nation in the Old Testament were ELECT. Are you denying this?

    Why don't you do an exposition of the verse you think includes Judas in the application of the Atonement. Then we can discuss it without all the false accusations of "dismiss what the Holy Bible very clearly says."

    Your own exposition, which you can defend in the thread. Not a copy and paste from elsewhere. Your work.

    Where does it say election ONLY applies to Israel? Were the elect Angels unelected at Israel's founding.

    Chapter and verse please.

    Where is God called a "Trinity?" I was showing you that your objection was foolish.
