His blasphemy will be shoved in His face by Jesus Himself on judgement day unless he repents. While there's life there's hope.

Which is why Christ came to die for them, so that they have hope. Simply hearing the gospel is enough to enable them to heed it. No. This verse isn't saying what you want it to say. Free will is not a superpower. People who are natural, when they hear the gospel, are no longer without...

Past tense. WERE. "But now..." they have hope, because Christ came to die for them! Duh...

This is EXACTLY what Calvinists such as @beloved57 are guilty of conflating with what God has done to save men, and why he has no answer to my post #794. Yes, God is solely responsible for providing justification. But God is NOT responsible for us accepting or rejecting that justification...

You still aren't getting it. It's BECAUSE OF CHRIST that they have hope. Prior to them hearing the gospel of Jesus Christ, they had no hope. But AFTER they hear the gospel, they CAN have hope, because HE has the power to set them free from their dead and hopeless state! This is why evangelism...

Slovakian insurance commercial I found while searching for something else. @ok doser I was gonna put it in the Trucking thread, but it fits better here.

You need to pay attention to what the verse says. See the highlighted portion in the quote. Then read literally the next verse! But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. - Ephesians 2:13...

A spiritually dead sinner can exercise his will ("free will" is a redundant term: if it's not free, it's not a will) because Christ went to the cross to for him, to enable such a dead, without hope, sinner to choose God, by providing a means for him to do so, where before there was no way for...

Repeating yourself won't make what you say come true, Akay, especially since I showed you that those claims are false, as per Scripture. Consider the following article, sir: https://kgov.com/deity-of-christ Agreed. Not quite. John 17:3: 3 And this is eternal life, that they may know You...

Nope. Christ was/is/will always be, God. Matthew 16:15-17: 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not...

AMEN! Probably should, but he can stay so long as he follows the rules. When the heathens come to the Christian, it's a golden opportunity to lead them to Christ!

Allah is a false god and Muhammad was a false prophet and an evIl man.

Yet with literally the very next few words you write you contradict yourself: If God is unknowable, then we can't know God, by definition. He can't be both knowable and unknowable. You ARE a Bible despiser, because you reject what it says plainly. Liar. Says the one attempting to...

You should read Elijah the Prophet's story of his interaction with Baal's worshippers.

So no answer to the rest of what I said, @Hoping ?

In other words, "I'm not willing to consider I'm wrong, and so I'll intentionally ignore everything my opponent says and just repeat my position."

I, for one, appreciate you being here, Clete!

So I was right. How could I, who have never seen you before on this forum or met you in my life, have known that that was what you believed? It's because those who reject Genesis as literal have to reject everything else in scripture as literal, because Genesis is the foundation for the entire...

That would take several weeks of dedicated Bible study that doesn't fit in a single post on a forum. You'd be better off just reading Bob Enyart's The Plot. Or, just read the entire Old Testament. Correct. Because of what Christ did on the cross. No. We are no longer identified as slaves...

Let me guess, you also reject Genesis 1 as literal? Rather, not taking it literally does harm to society as a whole.
