CJW wrote: Everytime in the KJV Old Testament where you find the word LORD in all capital letters, you will find that this word is from the Hebrew consonants YHWH, from which the words "Jehovah" and "Yahweh" are derived. That's my understanding too.SteveR You seem to always fall on the side of defending Rome. Why? In another thread where "seven hills" was used in refering to Rome, you argued that the text translated as "mountains", not "hills". Rome argues that same point vociferously. Here, where there's a contention on text, you state
SteveR wrote: 1) The primary language spoken by apostles in the Gospel era was Aramaic Like English is to us, Greek was the common language then. The desciples would have used Greek in their public ministry.But what your sly comment really belies is the fact that Rome has been arguing in favour of some nonexistent Aramiac text for certain passages because the Greek text clearly destroys Rome. (For example, c.f grammatical gender, peter the rock.) You're too close to Rome. Please give this a serious and prayerfull consideration. |

Folder wrote: Baptists rejection of the infant contends with Christ's words "suffer the little children to come unto me." - The child in the Baptist family is apparently not included in this invitation. Bible rejects infant-baptism. You contend against scripture.Parents are to bring up their children on the fear and knowledge of God. Nobody's holding the children back. This is an ongoing responsibility, not a reference to a onetime act of sprinkling magic water. . The passage you quoted goes on to show that true conversion produces in us a childlike reliance on God with our very being. "Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven"Mat18:3 You argue that why can't paedo's baptize unbelievers since some adults we baptize turn out to be false believers? We are called to obedience in proclaiming the gospel message, God reserves the sole rights to hold anyone accountable. You baptize unbelievers intentionally, you KNOW AHEAD OF TIME for CERTAINTY that some will want nothing to do with the LORD. To be a fair comparison, I would have to walk behind people and sprinkle them without their knowledge and consent. Now we're on equal basis for a fair comparison |

SteveR wrote: I agree Its really really really sad that the one person Christians should be able to trust, a person they should have no worry to hug, cant embrace them the way they are called to. I feel really blessed for my family, as they and I love our pastor. I hug him all the time The only person that anyone can really really trust is Jesus. Everyone else just hug your own wives. |

John UK wrote: Baptism accomplishes spiritual circumcision? Folder wrote: John Does this statement imply that Baptists believe there is - Zero - spiritual element in baptism? SPIRITUAL CIRCUMCISIONIf spiri'l circumc'n happens at baptism, then baptism imparts salvation. And infants are saved at and through baptism too. Colossians 2:9-14 9For in Christ all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form,10and in Him you have been made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority;11and in Him you were also circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, in the removal of the body of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ;12having been buried with Him in baptism, in which you were also raised up with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead.13When you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions,14having canceled out the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us, which was hostile to us; and He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus-Phl 3:3 |

Observer wrote: 2 errors 1. Dispys & Premills think that the lineal descendants are still in covt  2. The Reformed allegorise the lineal for the spiritual to get their kids in covt  The NT destroys both views! Actually, paedo's will have to switch back and forth between physical and spiritual seed to make it work. Paedo's aren't all Jews, so they have to be "Abrahams spiritual seed". But, (Unless Paedo children pop out highly spiritually enlightened,) their children are their "physical seed".So now try to follow along as he switches back and forth.
The family Covenant wrote: God's family in the Covenant is very important since HE established it with Abraham "AND HIS SEED." Genesis 17. Baptist's apparently don't trust God with their children.. The Baptist's also apparently reject Covenant with the Lord ..for their children. Gen 17:7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee" Except for Baptists "seed." |

Mike I have, over the years, enjoyed the perspective you bring into these posts.I believe in mans free will - as in Acts2:23 It's the Armin style, one that trumps God, that I have an issue with. Armins will trade verse vs verse in a debate. But where they are afraid to go is a clear articulation of their platform - the consequence of their beliefs. They will never admit(even though that's exactly what they believe), that man is sovreign over God. Because no scripture in the bible can be used to support that. See what I mean?
David Preston wrote: God - "predestinated." Here is a better way to look at Eph. 1:4 The key is "in him." Who did God choose? Those who are "in him." He decided before the foundation of the world that whomsoever was "in him" should be holy and without blame and that whomsoever was "in him" would be predestinated to the adoption. God "chose" those who are "in Him" before the foundation of the world. The "in Him" happens before God PREdestins. How does that happen? Because if so, then Gods predestining is superflous. Why did he bother with something He never did!These terms in the bible simply obliterate the Armin arguement. That's why they like to steer clear of what they are standing on and instead trade v |

Mike wrote: No, your understanding of sovereignty needs setting aside. Sovereignty means God can do as he wills and is answerable to no other. It does not mean he must do some particular thing, nor does it mean he cannot do some other. Except when it hits the will of man!God can do anything - even nothing. Round and round it goes. These are philosophical arguements that are borne out of debates to win debates. God is sovreign even when He is not being sovreign! These amazing definitions of sovreighnty escapes me. At some point you have you conclude that Where man chooses, God is not sovreign there. I believe that man has a "free will" and God is sovreign. The difference is that I believe that mans will is subject to Gods sovreignty Acts2:23, while Armins believe that Gods sovreignty is subject to mans will. "whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate", This is a clear decleration of Gods sovreignty. Only a sovreign God can foreknow and prededestine something. You'd think that something explicitly stated would settle the matter. Armins response is that God predetermined because he saw what would happen. God predetermined but man PRE-predetermined. Everywhere the bible claims something for God, Armins negate it. |
