Michael H., my friend, I am saddened by the fact that you chose not to respond to my post to you in which I explained perseverance of the saints (what you would call eternal security). I am also saddened by your response to the doctrines of grace. I never, in any way, made these doctrines a test of our friendship and prayers. I have not condemned anyone to Hell, nor have I acted in a self-righteous attitude. Yet you choose to lump all "Calvinists" together in your post. Some of your comments are way out of line, such as, "both have persecuted even to death Baptist type believers". I am a Baptist who happens to believe in the doctrines of grace, along with many others from the GARB. Many on this site, you included, don't like being branded with the same brand as everyone else, yet it is a practice that to many of us use. I'm still thankful to have you as a brother in Christ, and I hope this can be worked throug. |

Continue, Alan 
Lurker, yes, she does, but so does Yamil. He should remember the biblical principle, "whatsoever a man sows, that shall he reap". |

Obvious Truth, I will tell you that a friend of mine suggested a sermon to me. He told me who the preacher was. He said it was the sister of a well known preacher. I respectfully told him I would not listen to it because I didn't want to be disobedient to scripture. I was sure to let him know that it had nothing to do with women being inferior, nor that I thought she would not be a good preacher. It simply had to do with obedience to God's Word. I really believe that if you would submit yourself to what God's Word has to say in this area, and ask Him to change your attitude toward men (not because we deserve it, but simply because God says so), that you will see God's blessing in your walk with Him to a greater degree. Just a thought  |

Abigail, what was your point in posting all of those verses? Yes, the Bible says we must repent, but repentance is also part of the gift that comes with the faith that we are given. As has been pointe out to you, in and of ourselves, we can do nothing. Every aspect of salvation is a gift from God, beginning with regeneration, being made spiritually alive so that we can respond to the offer of salvation through the faith that God has given to us. Salvation is ALL of God and NONE of man. It is God's grace that draws us to Himself as He, by His Spirit, opens our spiritual understanding of our need for Christ. This awakening (resurrection, if you will) comes from God, the call comes from God, the faith to respond comes from God. Salvation is monergistic (God, and God alone), not synergistic (God's help along with our attempts). That way, God receives all of the glory! |

JD, in response to your questions about the covenants with Israel, yes, I agree with you. As a matter of fact, tonight, in our evening service, I began a series of lessons that will address the issues of the end times. I will be teaching from a dipensational premillenailist point of view. I will ieach that the promises made to Israel in the OT are still valid and that God has a plan for that nation. I will teach of the Kingdom Dispenasation. I will teach about the pre-trib rapture of the church and the coming of an Antichrist. I will teach about the resurrections and judgments of that time period, and I will tech it from a historical-grammatical and literal interpretation of scripture, so yes, I agree with you. However, I will not tell someone that they are not saved because they do not agree on many of these points. Our view of eschatolgy and dispensations does not save us. I think it is even possible to be wrong on the doctrines of grace and still be saved because it is Jesus Christ and His finished work that saves us. |

JD, I have to jump in here because I think you slander some of these folks falsely. I agree with you about the JW's and the char/Pentecostals and their tongues. I do not agree with you on MurrayA, Seaton, and Lurker. These men stand on the truth of the doctrines of grace as found IN SCRIPTURE. You have thrown ouot all of these accusations and you forgot the one that applies to most dispensationalists, they have their Scofield Bibles and their special interpretation of scripture. I say that being a dispy, although I don't use a Scofield Bible. You cry elitism, yet sit in judgment of all of these folks. You accuse of brainwashing, yet you put out what you have learned as a dispensationalist, taught to you by some predecessor, I'm sure. You make fun of the doctrine of the elect, yet scripture uses the exact word, and the principle of it is found in many other passages. You, JD, are the one who needs to humble himself and know that he does not have all of the answers! God is bigger than you are, and even though we can understand the Word of God, we are not God and do not have every point of doctrine completely understood. It is not your point of view, as much as your arrogance, that turns people off to what you have to say. |
