    Only once Bob, and 2Cor.7:8-10 has nothing to do with it.

    Ooooohhhh, that will do! :laugh:

    I have to respect my elders because my mother lives with us, and even though she is in bad health, she'll still "get" me if I don't behave! :laugh:

    So was Paul preaching a false doctrine.

    Sounds like some of them needed "salvation" to me?

    To repent of all my sins is much different than to ask forgivenenss from all my sins.
    Where is the repentance from all your sins in that simple prayer. You asked forgivenss, but there was no repentance.
    Bob ARE YOU SURE THAT YOU ARE SAVED!! No Repentance! Aaaaahh!

    No read the chapter. See what he is talking about. He is writing to Christians about one specific sin. He is not referring to salvation at all, and thus the passage does not refer to salvation.
    Read the first chapter. Paul only wrote to Christians--the saints in Corinth. He never wrote to any unbelievers. If you say that then the Bible is lying.

    10: For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

    Maybe you are reading a different Bible than I am DHK?

    I thought were were nicer than before Npet; I will work on it.


    Could you explain this scripture to me then DHK; for I am confused. It says "worketh repentance TO salvation". what does it mean?

    Bob, read the passage and the entire context carefully.
    Ask yourself: Can an unsaved person have Godly sorrow? The answer is no.
    The Godly sorrow that works repentance to salvation is contrasted to the sorrow of the world. An unsaved person has the sorrow of the world. Even an unsaved person coming to Christ cannot have Godly sorrow until after he is saved. He must come to Christ first. This is a passage speaking of believers only. Perhaps the salvation is speaking of a physical salvation and not a spiritual salvation. Often when a person continues on in an unrepentant state God afflicts them physically. Believe me, repentance is good for you health. It falls in this whole category of chastisement which we have talked about so much.

    Bob, I wasn't being silly in my post.
    I was being serious, and I will ask you in a more sober manner.
    In your prayer of salvation you simply asked the Lord to "forgive me of all my sins."
    But that is not repentance. It doesn't even come close to the definition of repentance. Nowhere in your prayer is there any sign of repentance. You are the one that preaches that there must be repentance for salvation. But you are inconsistant. I don't find any indicatiion of any repentance in your prayer of salvation. How do you accouint for this?

    I do not know why I should be explaining my salvation to you but I had already became sorry in my heart that I had sinned against God, already asked Him to forgive me of my sins, and I asked Him to save my dying soul and come into my life forever. It was good enough for me and the Lord, if it don't meet your standards, I am being serious now. According to the beliefs you have of "saved" being in the act of adultery and death comes in the very act and still go to heaven. I am sorry DHK;, it just does not matter to me if you approved of my salvation or not. I am sorry, just going by what you have said many times in the past. I do not question your salvation, that is between you and the Lord, the same as MY salvation is between me and the Lord, and leaves you out of it completely.

    What exactly are you talking about? I didn't recall any use of the word "Sillyville" anywhere in this thread, other than by you. Wanna' tell us what post that was in? Or is it in another thread and you have accidentally cross-posted?

    Ed,

    Brother Bob had made the reference prior to my post. He must have taken it out in the allotted time before edit was shown. It was in Post #26.
