Both very important

Romans 9:15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

So true

femi4: You should have as well asked me to quote the whole bible |
|
Goodnuel:God foreknows because He predetermined. How else would God know a thing before hand if it was not His doing |
femi4:You must really think so little of God. You must think everything that happens is outside His will. I guess you think somethings like "fate" and "luck" are the ultimate determiners of our lives |
Repentance is change of mind(turning unto God). But no man can change his mind...

|
femi4:Lol it's like saying Paul wasn't ordained to preach the gospel because his name wasn't mentioned in any prophecy |
Many have zeal
|
I'll rather listen to men like John Calvin
|
femi4:You mean no specific person was ordained to betrayJesus? |
|
femi4:Lol. If Christ deserves the glory for personally giving himself up, Judas deserves to be punished for personally submitting himself to sin too. |

"evil Catholic priest" tautology? I read aloud and it sounded like "evil evil priest" |
From the Puritan Prayers and Devotions... Christ was all anguish that I might be all joy, he was cast off, that I might be brought in, trodden down as an enemy that I might be welcomed as a friend, surrendered to hell’s worst that I might attain heaven’s best, stripped that I might be clothed, wounded that I might be healed, thirsty that I might drink, tormented that I might be comforted, made a shame that I might inherit glory, entered darkness that I might have eternal life. My savior wept so that all tears might be wiped away from my eyes, he groaned that I might have endless song, he endured all pain that I might have unfading health, he bore a thorned crown that I might have a diadem of glory, he bowed his head that I might uplift mine, he experienced reproach that I might receive welcome, he closed his eyes in death that I might gaze on unclouded brightness, he expired that I might live forever!

Then we shouldn't credit Christ for securing our salvation since it was a prophecy too? |
eyeview:So if I prophesy that Atiku will win the next presidential election and he doesnt win, will you take me seriously? |
MrPRevailer:Have you not Christ? If Christ is your righteousness why seek another righteousness under the law? Is God who became man to die for man's sin not able to preserve you and establish your ways unto right living? Is your god so small to do all these things. Mine is very big. I have a big God who I boast in |
Captain001:Thank you ![]() Contrary to what our critics say about us; that we preach licentiousness when we say men should rely solely on the grace of God through faith and add nothing to it, not even their best works, We teach that Christians ought to live godly lives and show good works (by the same grace) because it would be an insult to the Spirit of God to do otherwise. Christ didn't save us in sin but from sin. That we preach. Christ didn't come to help our righteousness but to be our righteousness. That we preach. Christ didn't save us unto lawlessness but unto good works. That we and our fathers in the faith preach. Haven established this. It's very important that we know how the grace of God works. And what it does for us. ~Firstly, The Grace of God in the person of Christ Jesus has appeared for our salvation. Salvation means to save from sin. Grace has appeared to save us from sin And what happens after that? Does Grace leave the rest of our walk to us? That would be catastrophic! Does Grace help us partly while we finish up by keeping the law? That would be witchcraft! For grace and works are exclusives, they can't work together. [Romans 11:6, Galatians 3:2,3] It's either grace or works Our works are tied to the Law. While Grace is anchored on faith. You are saved by grace through faith right? Ephesians 2:8 Now how do you live a godly life. Still same means! How? .by grace through faith You continue the same way you started. The same way you were saved. You started through faith you must continue through faith. You must live by faith. It was through faith that you received grace for salvation, it is through faith that you must receive grace to live a blameless life. Today, legalistic Christians are replacing faith with their obedience to the law. It doesn't work. It becomes a struggle because no grace is given through works. ~Secondly, Grace teaches us to say no to ungodliness and worldly passions. It teaches us to have selfcontrol and live uprightly. Anyone that continues in sin and lives anyhow and then say he is under grace, is a liar. We should separate ourselves from them for they are crucifying Christ again. To be under grace is to live a changed life. Tho we are not yet perfect and may never attain sinless perfection in our bodies of death, Christ requires good works from his church. And now here is the amazing thing, He does this himself. He purifies us by himself. He works in us to will and to do goods works for His good pleasure. [Philippians 2:13] At the end, we acknowledge it is God from beginning to end who has wrought all these things in us. [Philippians 1:6, psalms 40:2] Where is boasting then? Gone to the winds! All we have left is praise and thanksgiving for our God, for He does all things for His glory... Therefore if anyone must boast let him boast in the Lord. [1Corinthians 1:31] Titus 2:11-14 For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. |
MiguelKingII:It's not my intelligence. Its the wisdom of God, all to His glory! Ya feel free to copy. God bless~ |
Rankine:Amen to the verses. However I'm sure you have (mis)quoted to oppose all I have said. SHALL WE CONTINUE IN SIN THAT GRACE MAY ABOUND? Hell no!!!!! SO HOW DO WE NOT CONTINUE IN SIN? ARE WE DEAD TO SIN? yes!!!!! DOES THIS MEAN WE ARE NO LONGER SLAVES OF SIN? yes!!! HOW SO? HOW DID WE DIE TO SIN? can you answer? It's great conversing |
MrPRevailer:How did the post you quoted contradict those passages? And how have I preached walking in lustly flesh? |
Wilgrea7:Anybody who has been granted discernment will know |
Tare. You can grow with the wheat but on that day you will be uprooted and thrown in the fire. Better repent Kentura: |
Wilhelmus a Brakel (1635-1711) : "From being a child of the devil to becoming a child of God, from being a child of wrath to becoming the object of God's favor, from being a child of condemnation to becoming an heir of all the promises and possessor of all blessings, and to be exalted from the greatest misery to the highest felicity--this is something which exceeds all comprehension and all adoration."(Excert from article of Dr. Joel R. Beeke) |
