"An estimated 10,000 people marched in the third annual March for Marriage in Washington"Sadly "millions" do not take this path and soon America will redefine marriage - redefine the word of God. "Churches" like the Roman Catholics have made a mockery of the Bible by changing the doctrines to align them with worldliness; - idolatry, icons, blasphemous mass etc. And in the protestant sector we find Liberals and Arminians doing much the same thing to undermine the Bible. Thus their wicked witness demonstrates to the people of the nation that God's word and doctrines can be re-defined and rejected by churches and society. No wonder then that marriage is under threat in Liberal secular society. |

Jim Lincoln wrote: Error of Limited Atonement Jim here is a couple of sermons you desperately need to hear and comprehend their truth......#1 Saving the World, Part 1: A Refutation of Amyraldian and Arminian Universalism http://www.sermonaudio.com/sermoninfo.asp?SID=720141356568 #2 Saving the World, Part 2: A Refutation of Amyraldian and Arminian Universalism http://www.sermonaudio.com/sermoninfo.asp?SID=720141358710 __________ Jim. Do you believe in the TWO WILLS OF GOD???? Is your image of God one which manifests contradiction and indecision? "Amyraldianism . . . implies a twofold will of God, whereby he wills the salvation of all humankind on condition of faith but wills the salvation of the elect specifically and unconditionally. The theological difficulty of God's will having been frustrated by the fact that not all are saved is met by the argument that God only willed their salvation on the condition of faith. Where an individual has no faith, then God has not willed the salvation of that person" (Andrew McGowan, 'Amyraldianism,' The Dictionary of Historical Theology[Eerdmans, 2000], 12). |

Jim Lincoln wrote: Putting something between the Bible and the reader such as creeds may not add anything and also has a problem of detracting from the Word. Jim Yes I am aware you have only got four-fifths of the truth, the Doctrines of Grace, which means you don't understand the Blood of Christ and how God applies it to HIS elect disciples. FYI:- WCF 8/5. The Lord Jesus, by his perfect obedience and sacrifice of himself, which he through the eternal Spirit once offered up unto God, hath fully satisfied the justice of his Father,a and purchased not only reconciliation, but an everlasting inheritance in the kingdom of heaven, for all those whom the Father hath given unto him.b a. Rom 3:25-26; 5:19; Eph 5:2; Heb 9:14, 16; 10:14. • b. Dan 9:24, 26; John 17:2; Eph 1:11, 14; Col 1:19-20; Heb 9:12, 15. |

Michael Hranek wrote: Do you think it is a systematic articulation of Biblical Truth that saves people I don't know if you are familiar with the phrase Michael but can I just say "You have a brass neck"Canons of Dordt. "For this was the sovereign counsel, and most gracious will and purpose of God the Father, that the quickening and saving efficacy of the most precious death of his Son should extend to all the elect, for bestowing upon them alone the gift of justifying faith, thereby to bring them infallibly to salvation: that is, it was the will of God, that Christ by the blood of the cross, whereby he confirmed the new covenant, should effectually redeem out of every people, tribe, nation, and language, all those, and those only, who were from eternity chosen to salvation, and given to him by the Father; that he should confer upon them faith, which together with all the other saving gifts of the Holy Spirit, he purchased for them by his death; should purge them from all sin, both original and actual, whether committed before or after believing; and having faithfully preserved them even to the end, should at last bring them free from every spot and blemish to the enjoyment of glory in his own presence forever." #2/8. |

Michael Hranek wrote: Excuse me, don't you know the it wasn't TULIP which "fired" the Reformation but the 5 Solas "The solas were not systematically articulated together until the 20th century. But sola gratia and sola fide were used in conjunction by the Reformers themselves. For example, in 1554 Melanchthon wrote, "sola gratia justificamus et sola fide justificamur" ("only by grace do you justify and only by faith are we justified"). All of the solas show up in various writings by the Protestant Reformers, but they are not catalogued together by any." (Jacob Corzine. Theology is Eminently Practical) |

Michael Hranek wrote: I do hope you might remember Here is a teaching on your true image for you Michael which will help you see the extent of your depravity."A. W. Pink: "Even among those preachers who desire to be regarded as orthodox, who do not deny the Fall as a historical fact, few among them perceive the dire effects and extent thereof. 'Bruised by the fall,' as one popular hymn puts it, states the truth far too mildly; yea, entirely misstates it. Through the breach of the first covenant all men have lost the image of God, and now bear the image of the Devil (John 8:44). The whole of their faculties are so depraved that they can neither think (2 Cor. 3:5), speak, nor do anything truly good and acceptable unto God. They are by birth, altogether unholy, unclean, loathsome and abominable in nature, heart, and life; and it is altogether beyond their power to change themselves" (The Doctrine of Sanctification [Choteau, MT: Gospel Missions, n.d.], p. 45)." |

Mike wrote: Mysteries are often sought by those who think they have special insider knowledge. Allegories fit this need. Simplicity is their enemy. What about these "mysteries" which Jesus refers to? Mark 4:11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:" |
