Good point, Watcher. Any suggestions on dealing with what the Bible describes as a "vile person" (Psalm 25:4)?

Watcher, what you see there is a contrast between the suffering Christian and those who have their ears tickled by the state. I believe the underground church of China would know exactly what I am talking about and we would have sweet fellowship.

I am not a fraud. If I was not really saved I would never have started to attend a Baptist Church faithfully every Sunday because I stated previously I would never attend any Evangelical Protestant Church. I am growing spiritually at my Baptist Church.

Thank you, SA, for this article & all the work you all do.
This article reminds me of Psalm 33. If we aren't saying "thank you" to each other, how often then are we thanking the Lord?

Doc, I saw you were looking for commonality, let us try and find some. Sorry, guys but when Peter was asked what to do and the Philippian jailer asked how to be saved, neither were told if you are foreordained to eternal life then it will just happen, so Doc, throwing that part out of my post...

When men come to God in salvation, faith and repentance, it is only through the power of the Holy Spirit as US just said.

Way to go there Tim, Ladybug and Watcher

I can't wait until the day, my flesh man is destroyed and I am free of this shadow that follows me from day to day.

You may be right, I haven't read through every comment. My apologies to you if that be the case. Glad to hear your blood work went well.
A dear friend, she's retired as an RN, suggested the elimination of sugar from my diet. The blood stream needs more alkaline and less acidic properties to fight off illnesses. Sugar breeds an acidic type blood, illnesses breed in that environment.

Since no one has set forth a PRACTICAL difference (not a theological or definitional difference, but a practical difference) , I revert to my original question: Wouldn't we serve our Lord better by putting up more billboards? Please note that my hypothetical billboard didn't set forth any "denoninational" (for lack of a better word) theory of salvation, but the Word of God only. If there is rejoicing in heaven over Henry's salvation, should we rejoice any less on earth just because it wasn't our particular group that erected the billboard in the first place?

And since you're a strong believer in correction, here's a correction for you. It's clique, not click.
You, sister Ladybug, have a great day.

Connor, I have applied some logic to understand how our convo is going. There's nothing special about logic, it's simply a matter of looking at certain facts and reaching a conclusion. Okay, so it's quicker to say "applying logic" rather than "looking at certain facts and reaching a conclusion".
Anyway, by logic, I have concluded that whenever I respond to your posts (out of courtesy and Christian etiquette), you never reply to any of the points I make; rather you just carry on and come out with some more points, and therefore it will be a waste of time me typing anything out, being ignored and all, while you all the meanwhile hope to convince me of something you've been taught in university not the local church. So by logic, it makes sense not to bother...Ah, but modern neo-Calvinists don't bother much with the Spirit; they have the wherewithal to win men to Christ and truth by skillful argument, learned at a secular college. Logically.

From John 6...
63 The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life. 64 However, there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray Him.) 65 Then Jesus said, “This is why I told you that no one can come to Me unless the Father has granted it to him.”…Nothing has been added to the above verses.
Notice the Lord states they don't believe, and then tells us why, 'no one can come to me unless the Father has granted it to him'.

Why are they scared of GOD? Like evolution you have to pass laws to reinforce these ungodly beliefs. If left alone people would certainly see the power of GOD.

What practical difference does it make? Either way, Henry is going to heaven and Ulysses is going to hell, right? And rather than endlessly debating over the reason Henry got saved,..
