    Eternal suffering is not Literal

    Well, unless God the Son becomes a human being and submits Himself to obedience to God the Father - even unto death. John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:14 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the...

    Eternal suffering is not Literal

    Spoken like a true cultist! (REALLY! That isn't a joke!) Are you asking or pondering this question? (The latter would be advisable.) As well they should be! JWs are a cult as big as Dallas! Don't believe me? Try to leave! Just try pretending leave and see what happens! I hate Nancy Pelosi...

    Does man naturally have ability to Seek God ?

    More Calvinist double talk. The only reason people "need" saved, according to Calvinism, is because their god predestined people to be evil in the first place. Every piece of cooked homosexual liver that got stuck in Jeffery Dahmer's teeth was predestined to be there before time began...

    Does man naturally have ability to Seek God ?

    Not according to Calvinism! Here it is from the horse's own mouth! “thieves and murderers, and other evildoers, are instruments of divine providence, being employed by the Lord himself to execute judgments which he has resolved to inflict.” (John Calvin, Institutes of Christian Religion, Book...

    Does man naturally have ability to Seek God ?

    The god of Calvin is unjust! It sends people to an eternal Hell, not because they deserve it or for any other reason but simply because "it pleases him to do so". Calvin's god predestined and purposely made people to be without the ability to do anything other than be evil, as b57 will readily...

    Does man naturally have ability to Seek God ?

    There is no evidence that evolution happened. None! Further, what you referred to as "our hearts" is our mind (not the same thing as our brain). Evolution could have produced neither the brain nor the mind therein. Lastly, you, as evolutionists typically do, claim an advantage exists and then...

    Does man naturally have ability to Seek God ?

    You've explained no such thing. What you've done is stated your doctrine and cherry picked a hand full of out of context sentences from the bible to try and prop it up. If God is just then your doctrine is false. God is just, therefore, the god you worship does not exist.

    No, you didn't! Your mind in broken!

    Does man naturally have ability to Seek God ?

    Translation: "Apparently, you aren't a Calvinist." Heaven forbid you address a syllable of what I actually said with an actual attempt to make a real argument. You're incapable of it!

    Does man naturally have ability to Seek God ?

    Your proof texting a single out of context sentence doesn't negate the whole passages of scripture that contradict your doctrine. Your "revealed by God" doctrine is in contradiction to God's word which was written down for everyone to read so that men, like you, are without excuse. Not that...

    Does man naturally have ability to Seek God ?

    Typical Calvinist double talk. You believe that every single event that happens was predestined by God before time began and that nothing could ever happen apart or in any way different from what God predestined. You further believe that there was NO CAUSE for what God predestined. In other...

    Does man naturally have ability to Seek God ?

    The only thing you have to know to discard nearly every syllable that b57 writes on this website is that God is righteous. If believing in a God that is just is important to you, then that's both the first and the last step in the process of rejecting Calvinism. B57 claims the we have no free...

    Does man naturally have ability to Seek God ?

    If so, God is unjust!

    Faith to believe on Christ !

    If this kind of proof-texting where valid, where you start with a doctrine and then go fishing for verses to support it, then David Koresh was a Messiah, just as he claimed to be. He had pretty nearly the entire bible memorized and could proof-text his doctrine all day long and twice on Sundays...

    Calvinism: God is waiting on God to finish saving sinners before moving forward

    Again, even if I were to grant this completely insignificant point, it doesn't begin to compare with the massive and undeniable changes that the English language has undergone in the last 400+ years. The NKJV is translated from basically the exact same texts as was the KJV. That alone makes the...

    Calvinism: God is waiting on God to finish saving sinners before moving forward

    Then what are we talking about? Except that "kill" is NOT the correct English word for what is meant in that sentence. It wasn't right even in 1611! But we do Acts 12:4? Then why didn't they use the word murder? It is precisely the same Hebrew word used in Jeremiah 7:9 (and elsewhere) where...

    Calvinism: God is waiting on God to finish saving sinners before moving forward

    Okay, so this is why I hesitate to even get into this kind of discussion on this topic. It's just silly. Let's say you're right and that it's referring to a Pagan Greek festival which was not commonly observed in the Roman Empire. Fine! You're going to tell me that this is the reason you think...

    Why would it need to indicate anyone was going to wait an entire year?

    Calvinism: God is waiting on God to finish saving sinners before moving forward

    The KJV does exactly that. Not a chance that Easter is the correct translation with or without a woodenly literal word for word translation paradigm. In 1611 the word Easter had the same meaning that it has today. It's referencing the Christianized version of Easter, not the ancient Pagan...

    Calvinism: God is waiting on God to finish saving sinners before moving forward

    They'd have even less problem understanding the NKJV, far less actually.
