I have given my testimony many times. I gave it again today at the request of loghimo. I have no problem with that.
Here are some problems I see:
1. SBG won't give his testimony because the Bible specifically says that salvation is by grace through faith. It also says "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved." IOW, over and over again the emphasis is on faith. But SBG believes faith is a work. If he were to give his testimony of "how he received Christ as Savior," it no doubt would include an act of faith. If that would be the case then he would be admitting to a works salvation, a heresy which he is accusing everyone else on the board of believing.
2. How about you? You believe that if you live in sin you are not saved. Or perhaps you lose your salvation. I showed you already where you have sinned a number of times and told you I can find the posts to back it up? What does that mean? Does that mean you believe in a theology of "You must be born again and again and again." Where does the Bible teach that? But if you don't believe in OSAS, then that is what you must believe in, right? So if you believe you can lose your salvation how many times have you been born again, or are you sinless? Just what is your testimony?
What does this statement mean?

SBM believes God saved him first and caused him to believe, which would mean he did not do the ‘work’ of believing. You and Biblicist have beliefs that amount to what SBM teaches, but you cannot see it.
Let it be known that believing is not a work, and never is repenting and being sorry for sins. You say we cannot even be sorry for sins until after we are saved. Your beliefs are so close to SBM’s, I believe they are from the same false doctrines.
I have the right to defend myself against your ugly constant attacks, and what I say about it is my defense.

OTOH, God never requires being sorry for your sins for salvation. You can't find that in the Bible. You also don't know what it means to repent.

Yeshua1, tell me, how do you stay in Jesus’ love?
The Bible says Jesus died for the sins of the whole world, and Jesus is the Savior of all men. Why do you reject that truth?
Show me one scripture in the Bible that says what you say, that God causes us to believe after we receive the Holy Spirit.
You cannot answer these questions with scripture. If the scriptures said what you say, then I would believe it too.
Please, answer all questions I gave you here. -
DHK said: ↑I know I am right about his words. Don't you see the accusation over and over again: "That is works salvation." Don't you bother to find out what it means?Click to expand...
I ask you; please tell me even just one scripture that says not sinning is a work that we do not have to do.
DHK said: ↑Biblicist has Calvinistic beliefs but opposes SBG. He teaches heresy. He teaches that faith is a work. Read his posts.
Faith is not a work, but it is essential for salvation.

To be saved, the Bible says to fear God, to humble yourself, and to be sorry for your sins. There are many scriptures that say those things; here is one of them that says ALL those things. Are you ready to repent for preaching falseness?
Isaiah 66:2 Has not my hand made all these things, and so they came into being?” declares the LORD. “These are the ones I look on with favor: those who are humble and contrite in spirit, and who tremble at my word.
DHK said: ↑You can cry your heart out, be sorry all you want, but it won't get you to heaven--only Jesus can get you to heaven. He is the one that saves, not your tears.Click to expand...
DHK said: ↑Not even close. I am not even a Calvinist. This is the ignorance you have or a result of not reading the posts that each one of us post.Click to expand...
DHK said: ↑If you stop breaking the rules you would find things much easier on yourself. I have been reluctant thus far to edit out the things in your posts that are offensive. If you like I will start doing that so you can see the sin in your life--those offensive things that you post against others. Would that help?Click to expand...
DHK said: ↑I can say whatever I want concerning what I deduce from your beliefs. They are on the board.
They are public domain for everyone to read. It is our duty to contend for the faith. If you are spouting off false doctrine I would rather see it as my duty to tell the world not to pay attention to your false doctrine.Click to expand...

Secondly it says nothing about being sorry for ones sins.
Thirdly it says nothing about salvation. He was speaking to the elect.
Jesus saves those who are sorry for their sins. You speak falseness. We are definitely heard when we cry out to the Lord.Click to expand...
If you cannot be sorry for you sins until after you are saved, then you are a Calvinist to some degree. Just because you deny it, it does not make it not so.Click to expand...
I know it is offensive to you when the truth is spoken. I know too that you do not like it when people defend themselves.Click to expand...

DHK: The truth is not accusing others of blasphemy and other such offensive language. That is not truth. You won't be here long if you continue to be offensive. The Bible says to speak the truth in love.Click to expand...
HP: Pardon me while I choke. DHK, do you think for a minute that follow your own advice?
Let me remind the reader of DHK's words to myself a while back to which he never apologized once to me for such offensive language:
DHK: HP's view on the atonement is blasphemy because it is not all of God. God needed HP's help. It is either "all of God," or "God plus HP." That is the way I see it.Click to expand... -

If I remember correctly I simply told Moriah that Jesus was in the upper room speaking to the 12. When he said: "If anyone loves me he will obey me..." The anyone referred to "any one of you" the disciples.
He accused me of blasphemy for having a different opinion then him. There was nothing blasphemous in what I said. There was nothing heretical in what I said. It was unnecessary and that is the kind of thing that will garner infractions.

1 John 2:4 The man who says, "I know him," but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
Now tell us, how is this scripture different from John 14:23? -

So was Acts 1:4
Acts 1:4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
Did you obey the command of Jesus in Acts 1:4, Moriah?
1John 2:4 then applies to you also doesn't it?
Two can play this game. -

Take us to the URL where that comment was made HP.
I will show you where not only I but many others disagreed with your very unorthodox view of the atonement--well outside the bounds of orthodox Christianity. It is not just a simple disagreement. It is a heretical view of the atonement. That is what was under discussion.
What is under discussion here is not a vital doctrine to our faith, but a simple understanding of one verse and the context that it was said.

Better yet, DHK, why not just take a good dose of your own medicine and live by the rules you demand of others.
Dont be a hypocrite. Set the example for a change of a heart, a heart of the "love" you so freely speak about.:thumbs: -
Biblicist said this in the thread The Freewill Invitation system is a False Gospel.Click to expand...Post #288
Biblicist:"Your question makes no sense! Trying to answer your question only makes a fool out of God OR the one asking such a question. If God elected someone like Jeremiah (Jer. 1:5) before he was born and ordained him to be a prophet then the one who chose him is also the one who gave him physical life/birth and the one who preserved him from death to accomplish His purpose or else his words are silly just like your question is irrational. Paul says God chose us TO salvaiton THROUGH sanctification of the Holy Spirit AND belief of the truth so obviously the means are chosen as well as the person and if that person died then the fault lies with God as it is God who appoints the time of death (Heb. 9:27) which makes God the author of confusion and really denies He is God if such a thing were possible."

Is Biblicist or not saying that he was guaranteed to live until Jesus saved him?
Does this not then mean that no babies and young children who die before knowing Jesus are of the saved? Thus, were they not meant for Hell? With Biblicists beliefs, does he not teach then too, that the severely mentally disabled are not of the saved, but are instead meant for Hell?Click to expand...
