Tet. to me:".....dumber than a mentally challenged saved person.."
I am going to show everyone why you don't use quote tags.
I never said the above to you, and you took what I said out of context.
The following is where you got "dumber than a mentally challenged saved person"
Even the most mentally challenged saved person can see this.
Acts 2
39: For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.
Here's a group of people IN the covenants of promise, and yet they are AFAR OFF. Geographical.
Eph 2
12: That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
13: But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
Here's a group of people who were OUTSIDE the covenants of promise, they were FAR OFF. Positional.Well, then that means you are dumber than a mentally challenged saved person.
The people in Eph 2 were the Israelites from the 10 lost tribes. They BECAME aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, they BECAME strangers to the promises, they had no hope, and they were without God because GOD DIVORCED THEM AND SCATTERED THEM AND TOLD THEM THEY WERE NOT A PEOPLE.
But NOW because of what Christ did, they (the 10 lost tribes) who were “afar off” are made nigh.
Here is what is preposterous, and mentally challanged:
“Afar off” can mean geographical or positional.
Did you make this up on your own, or did someone teach it to you?
As we see above, I never called John W "dumber than a mentally challenged saved person". My post was a reply to STP's accusation that "even the most mentally challenged saved person can see this".
This is why Johnny doesn't use quote tags. Without the quote tags, Johnny can make things up and take what people say out of context.
Grow up Johnny!!!
