Thanks. A great addition to show the harmony of all of scripture.

Romans 10:5 ESV For Moses writes about the righteousness that is based on the law, that the person who does the commandments shall live by them. From: Leviticus 18:5 ESV You shall therefore keep my statutes and my rules; if a person does them, he shall live by them: I am the LORD.

Romans 4:5-8 ESV And to the one who does not work but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness, just as David also speaks of the blessing of the one to whom God counts righteousness apart from works: “Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, and...

Romans 4:3-4 ESV For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness.” Now to the one who works, his wages are not counted as a gift but as his due. From: Genesis 15:6 ESV And he [Abraham] believed the LORD, and he counted it to him as righteousness.

Not the focus for this thread. Please take that argument to a thread for that argument. Thanks.

So true. The prophetic use of the OT passages directed towards Ahab about a "virgin" having a child was a sign to Ahab in his timeframe to prove that Ahab would be successful in defeating the enemy that was attacking him. It could not have been a reassuring sign to Ahab for a battle he was about...

Paul use a massive amount of OT scripture to portray the gospel. Thought it would be a good study to view all the places he does so. Not to argue about, but to know about. Paul's use of Hosea Romans 9:22-26 ESV What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has endured...

He was speaking to his congregation. Romans 1:7 KJV To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Really? So you don't know that Paul said one can be cut off due to unbelief and grafted back in if they come back to belief?

You think Jesus needed sealing? Wow.

Oh, so God didn't have the power to keep anyone until Paul came along. Bah.

Yes, unless one thinks there will be unbelievers in the new heaven and new earth. No, scripture says by unbelieving.

Beautifully said.

This is where I take an exception with dispensationalism. I do not believe the teaching of Jesus while He walked the earth was only a temporary gospel that must be true for a short period of time and then not true for a long period of time, and then true again later on. Dispensationalism...

Another lie. Either you had the freewill to choose whom to place your believing faith in, or you take the Calvinist route and say you have no freewill choice. Then Peter is accursed in your estimation because you say he taught enduring faith plus works of the law. We're seeing a lot of...

John 6:27 KJV (27) Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. Wrong again. Paul says one is broken off because because of unbelief and can be grafted back in if...

That's an outright lie. Were the apostles not His? Were they not bought with His blood of the cross? Was He not able to keep them?

So now you're a Calvinist that does not think you had a choice to choose who you place your believing faith in. Oh well.

Not me. I am choosing to have my believing faith is in the Lord Jesus Christ. You and your ilk can doubt that all you want to.

Romans 11:20-22 KJV Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee. Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but...
