JD, did you ever stop to think that the prayer should be for God to lead you to someone he has already prepared.

I do find it interesting that most IFB pray for God to work on the hearts of sinners, to make them willing, to open their eyes that they may see and ears that they may hear the gospel and then turn around and deny all of these as a prior work of God in salvation.

Didn't it ever occur to you that this may be God's work of regeneration in His elect to bring them to the saving knowledge of Christ. God uses the ministry of preaching to bring the gospel to the lost that they may hear the Word and be saved.

Perhaps you can give us a detailed account of your testimony of salvation. I don't think it has ever been posted, but if you did, refresh our memories.

Defender of Truth. JD did mention that salvation is an event and not a process.

That would entail the praying to God the Father for the sinner to be enlightened and that his heart would be made ready and tender before preaching the gospel to him. That would entail the work of the Holy Spirit to draw him to conviction and repentance. That would entail Jesus, the Son of God dying on the cross to secure the salvation of the sinner.

According to JD, none of those processes are involved in the salvation of souls, but only a choice on the part of the unbeliever to all of a sudden believe the gospel and then he gets himself born again.

JD, I take it then that you do not believe that life begins at conception.

I also take it that you believe an unconceived fetus can somehow contribute to its conception.

Regeneration is the infusion of a new life in the heart and spirit of one who is dead in tresspasses and sin. It results in salvation, not a result of salvation or the same as salvation.

Notice the verse you posted.

Tit 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost.

The regeneration is a work of the Holy Spirit and moves by the will of God, not of man.

John 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

Man cannot control or gude the Spirit of God. It does not need your permission or approval or help to perform the will of the Father.

Oh. Looks like you have some sleuthing ahead of you, then.
Neil, I think it is called "Psalms, Paraphrases and Hymns" published in 1989 by the Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster. I'd love to get my hands on a copy here in the states.

The problem with many of the songs sung today in church tend to be light and lively. They may speak of sin, but only in a general sense and non threatening to our self esteem. They pump up the congregation for the preaching. However when I hear songs like "How Sad Our State" or "Hail, Thou Once Despised Jesus" it reminds us of just how totally depraved we were until God sought us and redeemed us. The old hymns of the faith exalt the mighty work of God, not how great and mighty our works are for God.

I know the time I called upon him for salvation. This is his promise to me. He cannot lie.
Tell me why this does not glorify him.
JD, what, or rather I ask who brought you to the point that you realized that you needed to call upon the Lord and be saved?

Not to be unkind I cannot speak for the others but speaking for myself that is a LIE. I don't appreciate it.
If you want to give your opinion as to what you imagine I believe that is one thing, or to quote me but kindly don't lie about what I believe. I am all too painfully aware of the fallen sinful nature of man.
That is too bad, it seems like I've hit some truth somewhere. When I saw my life before a holy God, I was just as lost and totally depraved as these men. It is your camp that is wishy washy on total depravity. You may admit to it, when when the facts come out just exactly how depraved we really are, you get your feathers in a wad.

Did any of these men possess any moral goodness to be able to come to Christ on their own?

Lone Wolf,
You must be referring to "Hymns of Grace & Glory." We & a church we frequent have that dark-blue hymnal, which we got by mail from [URL=http://www.emeraldhouse.com]]]Emerald House[/URL]
Unfortunately, I can no longer find it there, but I did find one at [URL=http://www.christianbook.com]]]ChristianBook[/URL]
The old (blue) [URL=http://www.gcp.org/trinity_hymnals.asp]]]Trinity Hymnal[/URL] would be a good alternative if it weren't sold out.
Hi Neil, thanks for the info. I do have "Hymns of Grace and Glory" which I purchased from Faith Free Presbyterian in Greenville, SC. However it does not have all of the Psalms and several songs used at Ballymena and at Ian Pailsey's church. That is the one I was looking for.

DefenderofTruth,

I think where these guys missed the boat is that their definition of total depravity and our definition is far apart in its scope. They will admit that they are dead spiritually, but that doesn't mean DEAD spiritually and that somehow they can come to saving faith by their own power. JD even denies such a thing as saving faith or a faith that saves. He denies coming to Christ savingly.

What Mike from NY, Michael and JD can't grasp is that we were all born with the same nature as Hitler, Bin Laden, Saddam Hussien, etc.

Just because they have not sinned after the similitude of these men, they deny that before God quickened them while they were dead in tresspasses and sin, in God's eyes, they were all guilty just alike. For some reason they want to believe that they still had some moral goodness about them to choose Christ and that the Holy Spirit had no part in their regeneration or bringing then to saving faith. The quickening and regeneration took place after they came to Christ by their own merits.

Does anyone have information on the "Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster Hymnal". I would love to get a copy of one, but all the search engines show very little about it.

So JD when you are street preaching, do you limit your gospel presentation to the Gentiles only. How do you know who are Gentiles? How do you know they are not Jews?

BTW, the great commission was given after the resurrection where there is neither Jew nor Gentile, but all need to hear the gospel.

Rom 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek."

He would overemfasize things like hate making like the person represent the action. When I am like mad at sumbody for being bad to me, Isay I hate u to friend i really luv all the time. Daid salmist did the same in that he hated the action and reprented the action with the person.
Interesting how you would call the Holy Spirit a liar. Afterall you just accused the writer of scripture an exaggerator, which is in essence a liar.

2Pe 1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

The word hate carries the idea of having preference of one over the other (see Luke 14:26).
That sounds all fine and good, but how would you reconcile your definition in the following verses.

(Psa 26:5) I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.

(Psa 31:6) I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD.

(Psa 101:3) I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

(Psa 119:104) Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.

(Psa 119:113) SAMECH. I hate vain thoughts: but thy law do I love.

(Psa 119:163) I hate and abhor lying: but thy law do I love.

(Pro 5:12) And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;

(Amo 5:21) I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.

(Amo 6:8) The Lord GOD hath sworn by himself, saith the LORD the God of hosts, I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces: therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is therein.

(Zech 8:17)

Wouldn't this be in accord with the Word of God?
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved.

and therefore quite accurate in terms of salvation.
Warm greetings Michael,

"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved." YES

"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be regenerated." NO

Joh 1:13 "Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God."

Joh 3:8 "The wind (The Holy Spirit) bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit."

You and I cannot govern how, when and where the Holy Spirit moves. He is governed only by the will of God, not by man.

God is still in control

Ok. I did. Your previous post still strikes me as imaginative. The next, anecdotal at best.
Ken Lynch, whom Cloud quotes in support writes: "Without conviction there can be no conversion. Without repentance, there can be no regeneration."
David Cloud writes: "repentance is a change of mind which results in a change of life"
Mike wrote:
Do you believe with Lynch that one must be convicted before conversion,
Conviction is the work of the Holy Spirir. Without the work of the Holy Spirit, there is no conversion.

Mike wrote:
and repentant before regeneration?
Fundamental baptist equate regeneration with the act of salvation which is inaccurate. They claim that regeneration takes place when you do something to get yourself born again.

Mike wrote:
Do you agree with Cloud's definition of repentance?
Yes, his definition is quite accurate. It means to think differently.

μετα (after, again, on) νοησατε (to exercise the mind)

Repentance is the thinking again concerning a matter, in the case of a siner, there needs to be a rethinking of sin, a new mindset toward sin. This i

The best study bible is the one without all the study notes. God has given us amble study material in the inspired text alone. It is only a matter of reading it, meditating it, digesting it, obeying it and practicing it.

It seems like everybody and their granndma is putting out a study bible. Are we reading God's word or somebody's commentaries pushing their own presuppositions.

JD wrote:
So, Lone Wolf comes along and presents his own "hard" believism as opposed to easy believism and decalres it beyond the realm of risk even though he cannot give a reason for his being elected or loved by God except the fact that he has embraced the doctrines of grace.
That is another blatant lie on your part JD. I have presented scripture, you have chosen not to read them.

Scripture tells us to make your calling and election sure (2 Peter 1:10). I have shown you from 1 John how you can know that you have eternal life. If you are saved, you are one of the elect.

You are being very dishonest here JD and for someone who calls himself a preacher of the gospel, you are being very disingenuous. Shame on you.

Are you now telling us that no one can have the assurance of their salvation?

Is your salvation based on something you did for God JD, or something He did for you?
