takeheedthatnomandeceiveyou Easy to defend Johnuk-reading his posts he has always stated his position-the 1689 Baptist Confession and has asked to be called out where he differs. Yes, he agrees with the 1689 Baptist confession but he also agrees with amyrauldianism (hypothetical universalism)."Hypothetical Universalism… In essence, it teaches that Jesus Christ actually and savingly died for all men, though only the elect receive the benefits through faith…This is a “Calvinist†who believes in T.U.I.P., not T.U.L.I.P., throwing out the limited atonement of Jesus Christ for the elect alone." "Amyraut taught the following concerning the decrees of God, …The Father, because of His general saving love for all mankind, desires to redeem all men actually, although He does not actually save all men. He sends Jesus Christ into the world to make salvation possible for all men (this is the Hypothetical Universalism previously mentioned). God, through a “hypothetical decree†which derives from His general saving love of all men universally, offers the Gospel, and salvation, to all men if they would believe on Christ…" |

It’s about traditional reformed and Amyrauldianism (Hypothetical universalism)."Hypothetical Universalism… In essence, it teaches that Jesus Christ actually and savingly died for all men, though only the elect receive the benefits through faith…This is a “Calvinist†who believes in T.U.I.P., not T.U.L.I.P., throwing out the limited atonement of Jesus Christ for the elect alone. Amyraut taught the following concerning the decrees of God, …The Father, because of His general saving love for all mankind, desires to redeem all men actually, although He does not actually save all men. He sends Jesus Christ into the world to make salvation possible for all men (this is the Hypothetical Universalism previously mentioned). God, through a “hypothetical decree†which derives from His general saving love of all men universally, offers the Gospel, and salvation, to all men if they would believe on Christ…Amyraut, then, believed that though men are naturally able to repent and believe, the fall rendered them “somewhat†incapable, thus, God decreed to elect a certain number of men, and secure their salvation for eternity..." http://www.apuritansmind.com/historical-theology/heresy-in-the-church/amyraut-and-hypothetical-universalism-by-dr-c-matthew-mcmahon/ |

John UK wrote: Well, if, as a Prebyterian minister, he gets his false doctrine from incorrectly quoted hymns of all things, he needs to think more. The hymn lyrics of 'How Sweet and Awesome' by Isaac Watts were changed. Original: How sweet and 'awful' is the place With Christ within the doors, ‘Twas the same love that spread the feast That sweetly 'forced us in', Alteration: How sweet and 'awesome' is the place With Christ within the doors, ‘Twas the same love that spread the feast That sweetly 'drew us in', http://religiousaffections.org/articles/hymnody/changing-hymn-lyrics/ … … |

Michael Hranek wrote: So I think it is more than safe to say the child of God (genuinely born again of the Holy Spirit) really doesn't need another teacher neither Roman Catholic or Protestant Oh I see Michael! So what you are saying is that you are a "Real" Christian - And I am not? I suppose that is because you can read hearts. Otherwise it might mean you were trying to deceive us.1Cor 12:28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly TEACHERS, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. Eph 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and TEACHERS; |

John UK wrote: Certainly not! You really need to think more seriously about your visits to the GP. Why do you go? To alleviate symptoms which God has placed upon you? To lengthen your life? For example, if your GP says that he can give you a better chance of survival if you take some of his magic pills, do you accept his judgment, or do you tell him that God has already determined your health, and that you will leave yourself in his hand? Psa 31:15 My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me."The time of life is in God's hands, to lengthen or shorten, make bitter or sweet, according to the counsel of his will. The way of man is not in himself, nor in our friend's hands, nor in our enemies' hands, but in God's." I will go to the doctors, I will take the medicine prescribed and I will pray because I know that God uses means but whether I am healed or not or whether I live or not is entirely in His will. |
