So JD, are you saying that Jesus lied when he said "Before Abraham was, I am.""I submit that God does not have a doctrine of retroactivity in his word and he is not including the OT saints in his body after the fact of the cross." That would mean that God has two means of salvation, another heresy of dispensationalism. Either Christ died for their sins or he didn't. Lastly, do you agree with the following statement by Yamil? "Jesus was always king of the universe from eternity past..." |

JD wrote: I have some questions of those who believe that all prophecy has been fulfilled except the one that predicts Jesus Christ coming back for the general judgment of all men at the end of time. First question: Where in the Scriptures does this promise occur? Matthew 25 is a good place to start. |

Minnow wrote: BTW DB, Did you notice that you've spelled your Pseudonym without the "n" at the end. ooh! I never noticed. Thanks for pointing that out, it's been corrected. I cleared my cookies recently and had to re-enter my data and missed it. Thanks again. So if Calvin is wrong on that point, could he be wrong in other areas of his theology. I did run across a verse this morning that caught my attention concerning election. (Num 16:5) "And he spoke unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even tomorrow the LORD will show who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near unto him: even him whom he hath chosen will he cause to come near unto him." Exactly who chose who? Arminians say, God elects me if I elect him first. Scripture says otherwise. God will cause those who He has chosen to come near to Him. God works effectually in his chosen ones to draw them to Himself. |

JD wrote: The Spirit that was breathed into Adam was his "life". It gave him ability to commune with God one on one and to have fellowship with him. So you admit that until God quickened Adam, breathed into him the breath of life, that he was unable to commune with God and have fellowship with God. Same thing applies spiritually. Until God breathed life into Adam, Adam was unable to hear, speak, walk, etc. JD wrote: When he died, what happened? Adam hid himself from God because he had no longer the means for this sme type of fellowship and communion. It did not mean he had no ability to hear the call of God because he did hear him unless you are prepared to deny the bible record. He not only heard him, he responded to him and was saved, God clothing him with the skins of animal sacrifice. Who came looking for who? Did Adam seek after God or did God seek after Adam.Secondly, I don't see anywhere where Adam confessed his sin before God, but passed the buck and blamed his wife. Thirdly, who provided the covering? Did Adam make the coats of skin or did God provide it by His grace? |
