Featured Miracles

You said I was the one that said Jesus was only sent to the lost sheep of Israel, those are Jesus’ words! That is what Jesus said! Jesus said he was only sent to the lost sheep of Israel. Matthew 15:24 He answered, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel."
Do you not grasp that?

Are you trying to be deceitful? Ann did NOT say “was Jesus disobeying His Father?” Ann said, “Jesus disobeyed then.”

Were you lying when you said Ann said, “was Jesus disobeying His Father?” Are you bearing false witness to go against me?

 

Jesus was sent only for the lost sheep of Israel that is the truth no matter what context.

The scripture says Jesus was sent only for the lost sheep of Israel. How difficult is that for you?

Jesus was sent only for the lost sheep of Israel. Stop going against Jesus to defend falseness.

If Ann can accuse Jesus of disobeying then, then how can she be reasoned with?

No, according to God, Jesus was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.

Jesus’ actions do not need defending. How can you talk in such a way is beyond me.
Matthew 15:23 Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, "Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us."
Matthew 15:23 A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is suffering terribly from demon-possession."
Matthew 15:24 He answered, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel."
25 The woman came and knelt before him. “Lord, help me!” she said.
26 He replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to their dogs.”
27 “Yes, Lord,” she said, “but even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table.”
28 Then Jesus answered, “Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

A woman came along and kept begging Jesus. Jesus had mercy on the woman, he said she had great faith, and her request is granted. Do you still want to call Jesus disobedient to the Father? Are you so wicked to say Jesus was disobedient to the Father?

 

Before DHK closed a thread he said: “I will say this:

Jesus never commanded anyone to be sinless and didn't expect anyone to attain such until we reach heaven.”

That sounds twisted and deceitful to me.

We are told for it is written: "Be holy, because I am holy.” See 1 Peter 1:16.

2 Corinthians 7:1 Since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.

1 Peter 2:11 Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul.

1 John 3:9 No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.

1 John 5:18 We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the one who was born of God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him.

2 Timothy 2:19 Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: “the Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness.”

Read all of Romans Chapter 6-7

We do not have to be done with sin you say. I will believe God’s Word and not you.

 

I want to get back to the topic of the thread Miracles.

Calvinists believe and teach that no one can believe in God and Jesus even after learning of God and Jesus, until God saves the person first. That is not biblical, in fact, that goes against the Word of God.

The Bible tells us our faith comes from HEARING the word, see Romans 10:14. From hearing the word and being TAUGHT, Colossians 1:5, 7. From continuing in what we have been CONVINCED of, see 2 Timothy 3:14, and being PERSUADED, 2 Corinthians 5:11.

Just the fact that Jesus did miracles shows that Jesus wants to convince us to believe. God saving people first before they believe would be no need for miracles.

Read and carefully John 2:8 Then he told them, "Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.” They did so, 9 and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside 10 and said, "Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.” 11 This, the first of his miraculous signs, Jesus performed at Cana in Galilee. He thus revealed his glory, and his disciples put their faith in him.

His disciples put their faith in him after they saw the miraculous sign that Jesus performed.

NOWHERE in the scriptures does it say that God made people to believe by saving them first.

Calvinism is full of falseness that goes against the Word of God.

 

DHK,
I am not interested in your opinions of what you think of me. I am also tired of you saying I say things that I do not. You are falsely accusing me and taking advantage of your moderating position. You want to keep preaching that it is normal for Christians to sin, but I want to help others to overcome. Do you think you can at least stop bombarding all of us with posts falsely accusing me of saying I am sinless and that Christians do not need to confess? Can you try to control yourself?

 

Where did anyone say a miracle saved someone? What do you have against me quoting scripture? Why do you fight God’s Word? The Word of God says that Jesus’ disciples put their faith in Jesus after they saw Jesus’ miracle.

Do you not understand that Jesus is the person being raised from the dead?

You are trying to discount what the scriptures say about miracles. You cannot.

Do you hate God’s Word? God’s Word says after they saw the first miracle Jesus’ disciples put their faith in him. Stop going against Jesus. What is making you fight against the written word?

Not everything is about you DHK. Maybe you could start a thread and tell us all your experience.

 

I read it correctly. I read it correctly and copy and pasted it just as written. hahaha Here it is again for you.
John 2:11 This, the first of his miraculous signs, Jesus performed at Cana in Galilee. He thus revealed his glory, and his disciples put their faith in him.

Have you no dignity? I have not changed the subject.

I will reveal to you another truth that you do not know…Abraham said, “'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.'" They would not believe even if someone rises from the dead, that someone is about Jesus Christ.

I fear God, not you. Your false accusations will land you in trouble. You think you can speak your mind to others and say all kind of lies, but no one else can ask you questions. What is the name for that?

No way do I know that you do not hate God’s Word. You go against me and twist what I say when I am only speaking the scriptures. According to you, you say you do not even believe that a person is unable to believe in Jesus after learning of God…SO WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU DOING IN THIS TRHREAD GOING AGAINST ME. What else besides hate do you think I should make of it?

Stop making up things. I am not omitting a phrase out of the verse. I quoted the scripture.

Stop trying to discount John 2:11. You are not going against me, you are going against the Word of God.

Your personal attacks will get you in trouble.

 

Readers please read and carefully consider John 16:30.

John 16:30 Now we can see that you know all things and that you do not even need to have anyone ask you questions. This makes us believe that you came from God."

What made Jesus’ disciples say, “This makes us believe that you came from God?”

According to Calvinists and Lutherans, God saving them first causes them to believe, though that is nowhere in the scriptures. Here this scripture says that the disciples seeing that Jesus knowing all things and that he does not even need to have anyone ask him questions made them believe that he came from God.

Calvinism is full of false doctrines, and goes against the Word of God.

 

offensive post edited.

 

I understand that it is probably hard for you to hear that your religion has strange doctrines that go against the Word of God. You do not even want to admit that anyone opposing it can get the true definition. I have given you a definition from an Internet site and a link for one of the doctrines of Calvinism called total depravity. Total depravity is the belief that no one can learn about God and Jesus and believe, until God saves them first, and that this saving causes them to believe. No scripture says that, it is a manufactured belief from man’s thoughts and assumptions. Total depravity is false, all the other doctrines of Calvinism collapse when this one doctrine is exposed.

If you want to believe only in the Word of God, then I urge you to search the scriptures to see if you can find even one scripture that says no one can believe in God after learning of Him until God saves him first. Do not let anyone misled you by showing you a few scriptures that can sound like that is what God is saying. I hope that you can find it in your heart to investigate these things and pray about them, and realize not one scripture says what Calvin says.

 

Nowhere in the Bible does it say what Calvin says.

So, are you serious that you do not know that your religion says no one can believe in God after learning of Him unless God causes him to believe by saving him with the Holy Spirit? I gave you a definition from a Web that says that, and I can give you any Calvin site of your choice that will tell you that. It is like talking to a blind man.

From what you say here, you started out in error and ended in more error. Why would you ever believe that we find God on our own? Where do you get that we find God without first hearing of Him?
The Bible says we get faith by hearing the word, and that we cannot hear the word unless someone preaches it. Are you ready to admit error now, why not?

That is what I call the imitation revelation. Satan masquerades as an angel of light, no wonder Calvinists claim they were saved and later had a big enlightenment that rocked their world, when the great enlightenment should have been when you were saved.

Wow, how were you ever saved without Calvin?

Many people go to seminary school and of course still do not know the truth.

Whatever did people do before Calvin came along 1500 years later? You do realize that your doctrines are taught by men that studied Calvinism don’t you?
