I have read your anti calvinist stuff over and over. Its funny how arminians or semi palagians charge us with being doctrine and no grace; and yet they preach a works based salvation. The dead give away being once a person works for salvation inherently even though they disagree, they become anxious because they realize they cannot work to please God, the rack ip more and more debt and become more and more anxious about their unforgiven debt which leads to anger and bitterness. And that is what I see here.

Your zealous tyraids should start with some truth

I agree, most of these author's are indentified with the enlightment which was expressly proposed to provide another world view apart from God. Reading them is the enzime that errodes the conscience and hacks away at the christian worldview in our hearts. I was a musician at one time and I had the liberal view that allowed me to be exposed to anti Christ music but when I realized how much it numbed me and dulled my senses (be sober minded doesn't just apply to alcohol) and provoked my flesh to rebellion I put it away. I can't understand such a low view of Christ that makes one want to gamble on dabbling in the world verses being ferociously one track minded so as to grieve the thought of being pulled from Christ. Why ever take that chance?

Right on brother. Hang tough with Mr MacArthur. I love his ministry, it has blessed me so much and will you too

You are absolutely correct He doesn't need anything to be, but that wasn't my point. My point was because He is it consequencially demands that is what He requires. Total righteousness and Lordship. Soveriegnty means absolute, no exceptions, no threats to His soveriegnty. This is in response to your comment about Lordship salvation to which you lent as not a requirement to which He demands not just because He is God but also because He died and rose again. Not submitting fully to Lordship salvation is insubordination and rebellious to His claim to the throne which is why I made a passionate plea to you.

Frank was right on que with we are save by grace through faith and that not of yourselves it is a gift from God. And that my friend is God supplying our need to meet what His Lordship demands that we cannot fullfill. And I would lend to you, why would you even entertain the thought for second to not fully give your life to His Lordship, heart mind soul.

You didn't address anything I said. Go back over frank's response then mine. Don't bring out the rabbit I won't chase it.

First answer me; john's baptism, from heaven or of men?

Mark 11:30

I am excedingly concerned with what you posted

I am not answering for Frank, I have no businesd as he probably handles the word better than I. He put up verses on repentance because you said you liked the video ip till the preacher said you must repent of all sin and then made a crack about lordship and calvinist. I am assuming he was demonstrating repenting is straight FROM SCRIPTURE, THE ONLY SOURCE OF REVELATION FROM GOD. Meaning God said you must repent.

You can't declare a war on laziness, entitlement, and irresponsibility outside of allowing the consequences to land where they might. Isn't that how God ORDAINED things to happen in His creation?

I am totally depraved, I wi agree with the apostle especially since

If we confess our sin He is faithf and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness......1 john 1

Motor 15 grand
Tranny 3 grand
Nitrous 2 grand
And that was the beginning. Waste of money. Time away from family, never get it back. Have you seen how depraved the coulture is.

1 John 2 say do not love the world nor the things in the world, lust of the eyes........

I had to give it up.

I am a dude, lol don't worry bout it lil brother.

P.S. I keep my motoctoss bike in the garage for the occasional ride. Doesn't cost me a dime.

I just thought it was strange she made a list in her second paragraph and said this is what christianity is about instead of saying the list is what happens to some
christians.

I am also perplexed at the whole american christianity comment as well, very open ended statement. Does she go to a church? Is it in america? How did she find SA? Does she read the bios of the featured speakers and pass over the americans? James White? Nope. Albert Martin? Ah ah. Steven Lawson? No american. Wow there are some wonderful servants on this site, faithful men who work hard in the Lord.

Cab are you considering how sweet or repugnant your presentation sounds?

Thank you. I read what you said carefully and it blessed my heart. I consider well the maturity in your post.

Not sure how TULIP got lumped in here

American christianity, hhmmm RC Sproul, Edwards, Paton, Judson, Elliot, MacArthur; those that are the bride of Christ that live in america seem fine to me "true bride of Christ is a christian"

Christianity is about Chist' atoning work on the cross and His redeemed glorified church.
