It is also proven that Frenchie was like the apostle, in desiring the salvation of all men, and believed that we should seek to bring the entire world into Christ's flock, that they all might be saved 
You don't 'alf talk a load of old fertilizer John. Must be your inner hyper-wesleyan fluences!!!!

How about some great posts, in which you share something of experiential Christianity? Or experimental Christanity? Or how about we talk about
JESUS
Or someone like the
Holy Ghost
Or how about God the Father John
For your edification
"Theology is The science of God or of religion; the science which treats of the existence, character, and attributes of God, his laws and government, the doctrines we are to believe, and the duties we are to practice; divinity; (as more commonly understood) the knowledge derivable from the Scriptures, the systematic exhibition of revealed truth, the science of Christian faith and life." Further
"Scripture" or "Bible" is where we will find the details of God, Christ and the Holy Spirit. The entire Book is about the Trinity and their work in Creation and amongst mankind. ANYTHING we discuss on the Trinity in Theology thus Scripture has a direct bearing upon God, Christ and the Holy Spirit. IF you are a TRUE Christian the Holy Spirit will guide you into all truth, and that is the discussion believers would seek to have. BTW
John and Mike
Calvin is a proven 5 pointer.
Christians should know this. |

Some time ago, there was a good (excellent) theologian on these boards called "Calvinist Understanding" who came in for a lot of stick from certain quarters, but could not be gainsaid, because he knew his Calvinism, having both studied it, and taught it, in seminary. Of course, some of these 'whippersnappers', or 'young Calvinists' who have a simple grasp of the tulip garden, but have never read any of the depths of Frenchie's commentaries, were opposed to him, not because they were right, but because of ignorance If I thought you were an expert on Calvinism John I might be worried about your insults here. But as we have observed many times in your posts a "Hyper-Weslyan" hypothesis slips through, there is no need to worry.Your old associate C.U. was an all too familiar 4 pointer who did not understand the proper and historic construction of the TULIP. Which probably explains your 4 point stand also, (when you are not wesleying it around, that is). For someone who cannot even bear to mention Calvin's name, I can perceive why you swing from one camp to the other. It has to do with theology. |

Can you repeat that in English, please? The words are quoted from the Canons of Dordt. (3/4 Art. 12, 14) This Synod judged the Arminian fallacy to be heresy. I find that these words demonstrate the opposite position to you and thus identify you as Arminian.
This would explain your penchant for human faculty contribution to salvation. |

S'funny, an arminist who holds to the Baptist 1689 (Calvinistic) confession? This is in no wise effected merely by the external preaching of the gospel, by moral suasion, or such a mode of operation, that after God has performed his part, it still remains in the power of man to be regenerated or not, to be converted, or to continue unconverted; but it is evidently a supernatural work.Faith is therefore to be considered as the gift of God, not on account of its being offered by God to man, to be accepted or rejected at his pleasure; but because it is in reality conferred, breathed, and infused into him; or even because God bestows the power or ability to believe, and then expects that man should by the exercise of his own free will, consent to the terms of that salvation, and actually believe in Christ;
BUT
because he who works in man both to will and to do, and indeed all things in all, produces both the will to believe, and the act of believing also. |

"A California school district that has launched a website to "meet the needs of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and questioning youth" is just the tip of the iceberg of the agenda in the state's schools to teach children alternative sexual lifestyles"What with legalising the act, marrying the partakers of it, making it an offense to speak out against it, teaching future generations to do it, I suppose the ultimate aim is to make a sodomite out of everybody??? But GOD does not agree Because HE wrote.... "13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them." "24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie" Thus....
"11 Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High:
12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help." |

Just curious to know if anyone here know of a good reference that deals with the question, "What is life?" Life is animation of mortals by the providence of God.Life is eternal. Spiritual life is animation of the spirit of man, by the Lord, of those whom God has chosen. The unsaved are spiritually dead. Romans 8:6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. |

If you truly want Christianity to thrive, I suggest you take a hard look at yourselves, because 99% of you have not been very Christ-like. By your own standards, none of you are "True" Christians either. If "Christianity" is to "survive" then GOD will be the one and only source of its survival.
When the Church is complete then GOD will destroy this world and make the new one for HIS Elect.Proverbs 21:18 The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for the upright. Proverbs 15:29 The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous. Proverbs 15:28 The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things. The "righteous" are God's Elect. The wicked don't know God. |

So far we have observed that most of the self professed calvinists on SA:
# Do not understand total depravity or the spiritual nature of man's inability
# Hence do not.....???? Talking about "self processed calvinists" YOU are the one who rejected Calvin's teachings earlier.I've seen everything now!!!
We hear of "nominal Christians"
But this is the first time i've come across a nominal Calvinist.
I'm soooo glad John uk is on your side.
After all Arminian "salvation by self initiationists" should stick together. Sad thing about it is that these free willers are the seed of todays Liberalism. Well the historic Synod and the true Reformed Church knows these heretics to be what they are and must accept them and other cults as part of the tribulation of life on earth. 1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 AND MANY SHALL FOLLOW THEIR PERNICIOUS WAYS. _____ BTW DJC49 Dont give up the day job.
You dont appear to have grasped the Reformed teachings either. Sorry.  |

History repeats itself.Canons of Dordt record that.... # REFORMED SAY "Faith is therefore to be considered as the GIFT OF GOD, not on account of its being offered by God to man, to be accepted or rejected at his pleasure; but because it is in reality conferred, breathed, and infused into him; or even because God bestows the power or ability to believe, and then expects that man should by the exercise of his own free will, consent to the terms of that salvation, and actually believe in Christ; but because he who works in man both to will and to do, and indeed all things in all, produces both the will to believe, and the act of believing also."
__________ # ARMINIANS SAY "That in the true conversion of man NO NEW qualities, powers or GIFTS can be infused by God into the will, and that therefore faith through which we are first converted, and because of which we are called believers, is not a quality or gift infused by God, but only an act of man, and that it can not be said to be a gift, except in respect of the power to attain to this faith." ______ Synod of Dordt (Reformed Church)
Record that the Arminians are teaching HERESY!! |

What about if a person was elect and yet loved their life in this world? The Elect don't love their life in the world, because they are given insight into [a] How evil they are in the flesh. [b] How evil a place this is compared to heaven. [c] In His Light they see light. Psa 36.Some good advice for you 1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them. |
