Jhn 1:12-13!

As in Jhn 11 & prior chapters starting in Jhn 1, we are clearly are told that we are physically alive but ever so inwardly unable to please God in our fallen condition, as our fallen flesh, our mind & thought life, leave us to be dead in our trespasses & sin. Bound in the bondage of moral corruption, as their is none who are Good than the Eternal Godhead or a true Seeker of God!

But John for J; wants to in his own mind & reasoning, doesn’t want to let Christ be the true seeker of the Fallen first; As Eph 1:1-14 is clear on why one has a union with the Eternal Godhead Alone!

Free Willy; 5:39 You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; & it’s they that bear witness about me, 40 yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life.

Spurgeon; I would propose that the subject of the ministry in this house, as long as this platform shall stand, & as long as this house shall be frequented by worshippers, shall be the person of Jesus Christ. I am never ashamed to avow myself a Calvinist; I don’t hesitate to take the name of Baptist; but if I am asked what is my creed, I reply – ‘It is Jesus Christ’.

Lazarus only came forth, because of Christ working through the Godhead. As Lazarus didn’t say Christ let me stay a little bit longer so I can stink some more. Nor did Lazarus say by kicking & screaming, I don’t want to be one of the elect either. So what I said already about Jhn 11 does apply!; Jhn 6:63 It’s the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit & life.

Without Christ seeking & saving His people their is no coming forth if one is left to the fallen rebellion one is in apart from Christ dragging one out of the spiritual deadness one is in; Eph 21-5!

It’s clear you have a issue with grace, as the Doctrines of Grace, don’t puff one up, but it brings great humility into ones own heart & thought process. In what a wrecth, I truly am & what I truly deserve!

That God is & will never be under zero obligations of saving any, & that includes me too. From what I hear from you, you don’t like that notion, about God!

Christ isn’t a potential Savior, He saves His people to the utter most; Jhn 10:25-28

You just don’t like the facts of what scriptures convey to one, that Jesus wasn’t standing & pleading with Lazarus to let Christ into Lazarus heart or any other sinner, who is still in the First Adam. As that doesn’t fit into the narrative box of, what many try to pass off from Rev 3:20 to say & repeat after me. In asking Jesus into ones heart!

Why I said was, people shouldn’t get hung up on, well a specific word isn’t in the Bible, that doesn’t mean that scripture doesn’t teach on the word that isn’t on the Bible.

What I said about Lazarus does apply, as Jhn 11, is talking about the rasing of the dead, resurrection power & glory, in which God can only do, through God Jesus. As all are in loins of the First Adam, as Lazarus was too. If Lazarus wasn’t called forth, he would have never had taken one step forward, or even blinked his eyes ever. As Jesus wasn’t knocking on his heart door saying let me in!

If God doesn’t seek by raising up the Spiritualy dead, who aren’t seeking out God on their own, as the Spiritual dead like Lazarus have to be called forth; Jhn 11:44 is clear on that, that only God seeks, & has too seek us, as salvation is of His glory & praise Alone!; Jhn 5:28, Eph 2:5.

Faith clearly does & has to come by the hearing of God’s Word, as the Elect, don’t have a Big E on their Foreheads or a Bright Yellow Strip running down the Middle of their Backs!

As one willn’t have saving Faith, unless the Inward Calling of the sinners rebellion is opened uped & in able.

As the sinner will willingly come to Christ like Lazarus had to be made willing to come forth too Christ!

As when sinners freely choose to seek the Lord, turn from sin, & receive Christ, they have been enabled to do so by a prior work of God in their souls (John 1:12-13; 6:44-45).

But you clearly are dismissing in how the inward aspects of mankind is in rebellion against their creator,. As one willn’t & can’t be changed just by the outward calling of the gospel alone. As the inward calling of the gospel has to be apart of the regenerating power that only Christ can & has to do for one. Through salvation being of the Lord alone amen.

But you are clearly are neclting how the fall affects all aspects of the inward of aspects of the fallen apart from Christ.

As the inward calling on a fallen sinnner is ever so important, as what a fallen sinner willn’t & can’t do apart from the inward calling of the Godhead working in ones life, to bring them to saving faith.

So your works messages you claim of Calvinism is utterly false & n’t supported, Biblical supported!

John their is None who are Good or will be Good enough period outside of the perfect sinless righteousness of Christ Alone!

As Finny had another Jesus, through another gospel message. As asking Jesus into ones heart, came from the false teacher, Charles Finny!

Titus 3:5 he saved us, n’t because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration & renewal of the Holy Spirit,

PS 19:1-2 The heavens declare the glory of God, & the sky above proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, & night to night reveals knowledge.

Let them fear death who don’t fear sin.

Pro 1:7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom & instruction.

O’ Comrades we have a great Intelligence Officer in Lincoln, o’ my Comrades we are ever so grateful for our fellow Comrade Bro, in Lincoln.

As he does a great job in spreading the Communist agenda on these SA Fourms!

This site has Jehovah Witness tracts, you can print out too!

Learning the Mormon language code talk, is helpful, when they play the game of twister, in twisting scriptures!

A greater reminder in dealing with a lost soul, is asking questions to get them too think & n’t win the argument. As the Lord brings down the veil off the heart & mind amen!

O’ Jim, may God breath the saving gift of Godly brokenness, that leads to Godly repentance into your life. As you boast of, that I have tomorrow, a lie from the pit of Hell!; Pro 27:1!

Ben’t self-deceived by being ENTANGLE by your own sin & snares of treating your own sin so lightly, as the god you serve isn’t the true & only God of the Bible alone. As you clearly don’t have a yearning to seek personal holiness in your life, or a reference of God’s holiness either!

Pro 5:22 His own iniquities will capture the wicked,
And he will be held with the cords of his sin.

Jim fits this verse perfectly as his own doing on many threads on here. That Jim isn’t Born Again from up above alone, who has tasted the sweet saving nectar of being spiritual adopted, from God Alone;John 1:12-13!

May the Lord having mercies on Jim spiritual heart of stone he has, as he is spiritually deceived, in his unregenerate state of never ever of being able to please God, in that fallen condition ever!; Roms 8:5-9!

But it good reminder to preach to oneself daily, I am what I am, but only by the Grace of God Alone! As one seeks to share truth with others in love amen!
