Re: I have a question of fairness and salvation, does everyone g

My understanding is that God does not want all men to be saved in their life time. Let me show you some scriptures that may be beneficial to our discusion. ESV Mark 4:10 And when he was alone, those around him with the twelve asked him about the parables. 11 And he said to them, "To you has be...

Re: I have a question of fairness and salvation, does everyone g

Gal 6:10 So then, while we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the household of the faith. Yes, we should do good to all men! And especially our fellow believers! 1Ti 4:10 For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have fixed our hope on the liv...

Re: More Trinity stuff

It appears that most here have a much better understanding of the Greek than they do the Hebrew. I will admit, I am in the infancy of both however, idioms and peculiarities are not that hard to understand. In the English language, and certainly the way young people speak, we often hear about somethi...

Re: More Trinity stuff

Is God the only Savior? I imagine by now B.W. you may “STILL” be arguing with me and saying something like this: Well, if Jesus is not God in human flesh what you do say to the Scriptures that say only God can save? After all, God says, "I, even I, am the LORD; and there is no Savior besides ...

Re: More Trinity stuff

By reading this verse it is plainly clear that the person who is being anointed is not YHWH. YHWH is anointing this individual. Now watch how Jesus uses this verse to refer to himself. Jesus uses this verse to say that he is the one that the Scripture spoke about. That he is the one whom YHWH has an...
