Admin	Comfort Them With The Truth Posted : 5 Jan, 2013 08:16 PM The church can not be comforted with false teaching. 1st Thess 4:13 � But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 1st Thess 4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 1st Thess 4:15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 1st Thess 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 1st Thess 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 1st Thess 4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

View Profile History	Comfort Them With The Truth Posted : 7 Jan, 2013 05:48 AM Im not one to want to have discussion much because of where it leads me, a place I do not like. I grew up in a contentious home and these days I try to avoid contention. And discussion on faith leads to contention for me at least many times. We should all avoid contention but some prefer to be right in their own eyes, never giving place to, refusing to hear. Scripture only speaks truth. It is not being contentious to agree with the lord and his truth. The contention starts with refusing to hear. That is why i usually make statements and try not to defend them. It is difficult to not get sucked in every now and then though, because the contention can be exciting as well, right? No man can defend the truth. But rest assured I am not trying to be contentious here. Then have an ear to hear and the holy spirit will readily show anyone. Notice how you have one that normally rails you, belittles you know supposedly supporting you. The unbelief on this topic can easily send people to hell, it is amazing how one can be comfortable with that. Post Reply

View Profile History	Comfort Them With The Truth Posted : 7 Jan, 2013 08:19 AM This is case in point...you act like you are participating in the discussion yet you are talking about something so off topic.... As to your second point, I have no idea what you mean that you met a Calvinist who is on his way to heaven or whatever. Post Reply

It's not hard to walk in the spirit when you love Jesus A Direct response to your declaration, unless you apply man's doctrine of interpretation Btw Te way I meet a calvinist that is saved and on his way to knowing Jesus. It means simply that even though some accepted The calvinist doctrine Jesus will save them out of it. That statement is not one bit off topic to a believer, it is very comforting Post Reply
View Profile History	Comfort Them With The Truth Posted : 7 Jan, 2013 08:55 AM Yes, "It's hard not to walk in the spirit when you love Jesus", was off topic. That is unless you are claiming that when I tell you you're doing something wrong, you say I'm not walking in the spirit. That's cliche for you. If someone disagrees with you, you question they aren't walking in the spirit. It's an argument that's gotten old and yet you still use it. So for clarification, you are saying you met a Calvinist who is no longer a Calvinist? This is not something new or unheard of. Unfortunately, you've never been able to show why someone needs to be saved out of it, so I can't really say that this has any weight at all. Post Reply

That is an interesting statement, So how did they person get SAVED? Correction to your statement man is unable to show why Calvinism is a false doctrine. It is not man's responsibility, or in his ability to make any one believe, it is all men's individual choice and responsibility to believe. The word of God stand's on it's own merit, it is either rejected or accepted, it is his choice either way. It is the desire and I will add the father's only desire that all men choose Life, to choose life is to choose the word of God. Post Reply

Oh really so when the scriptures teach to defend truth, they are just joking around? Thanks I didn't realize that. It certainly is your job to defend truth, which means to correct error. Thanks for dodging the issue though and further showing that you can't show why reformed soteriology is wrong. Post Reply
View Profile History	Comfort Them With The Truth Posted : 7 Jan, 2013 10:04 PM Don't confuse two issues. I never said it was man's responsibility to make men believe(saving faith). I was simply saying that you have never been able to show from scripture why reformed beliefs are wrong. Let's try to stay focussed here or you will just have everyone confused. If that's your goal then I don't wish to participate. So, please stay focused. Post Reply
