@gore53 and Harold Lloyd, the erstwhile Prime Minister of Britain? LOL. And the James material was just reading off the Bible itself, folding in my pastor's exegesis class material on James. I learned about the use of definite articles, from him. :)
Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. (Titus 3:5-7).
@BethelShual What use it it, if you don't learn the correct translation and context? See my James 2 Exegesis playlist.
James never talks about salvation in the epistle, but about MATURATION to get the 'crown of life' award, ATOP salvation. James is writing in response to Paul's letter to the Corinthians.
@brainouty You can make whatever claims you'd like. I don't believe you need to read anything outside of the Bible to understand the Bible. I don't need to know the history behind it. I can read fine. It says works and I believe it. You can wrangle about words all you want. Salvation is by faith alone, faith in Jesus Christ. However, you will do good works as evidence of your salvation. There is no such thing as a carnal Christian.
@BethelShual YOU'RE NOT READING THE BIBLE, YOU'RE READING A TRANSLATION OF IT. There, that's all in caps. Christ didn't speak English, it wasn't yet a language. Neither did James, so if you want to know what James SAID, you have to read the words HE WROTE.
Do your homework. You're quoting mistranslated words. BYE. I have no time for lazy people, Titus 1:12-14, 3:10, 2Tim3:5-7.
@Kyouryuu5000 Thank you for showing me these Scriptures, but sir? Madam? What is your point with them? It doesn't seem to support what I have heard from the uploader or anyone else who talks about carnal Christians. Galatians 1 speaks about a different Gospel: faith producing works in a believer is actually the true Gospel, not a different one. Even 1st Corinthians 3? Saved themselves, even so as by fire? What happens when you pass through fire? What happens to wood or straw in fire?
Okay then. If your view of salvation is correct, then why was David called a man after God's Own Heart, yet he committed adultery with Bathsheba and murdered Uriah the Hittite? Did you know that Lot was a believer who did not live for the Lord, yet he still made it Heaven?
@Kyouryuu5000 I'm really sorry. I think I've caused a great misunderstanding. No, no, I'm not saying that works will save you. I'm saying that, if God has changed you? Works will be an evidence of your change, of your salvation. The works won't earn you heaven: salvation is by faith and faith alone in Jesus Christ. Only Jesus Christ can save a man. I'll answer your questions, but I also want to add this, that I know this to be true because I've experienced it first hand, when He changed me.
@Kyouryuu5000 David did indeed sin: I am not saying a believer does not sin because if that were true, I have a problem with verses like 1 John 2:1. The thing is, David didn't practice adultery, he didn't practice evil, he didn't live in evil. A true believer, though they may mess up and stumble? They can't drink sin down like water, the way they could before God changed them. I am talking about not sinning the same way it is spoken of in 1 John 5:18 or 1 John 3. I have something to show to you.
@Kyouryuu5000 The parable of the sower is good to check out, in Matthew 13, for example. Verse 22 says this:
_____
The parable of the sower is good to check out, in Matthew 13, for example. Verse 22 says:
_____
“And the one on whom seed was sown among the thorns, this is the man who hears the word, and the worry of the world and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.
@Kyouryuu5000 In John 15, Jesus talks about how He is the vine and we are the branches. Any branch that bears fruit, He will prune it and make it bear more fruit. However, what happens to an unfruitful branch? Verse 6 says this:
_____
“If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire and they are burned.
_____
See also verses like Luke 13:1-9, Romans 7:4, Romans 6, 1 Peter 2:24. I'll go to the other questions now.
That is not saying that the carnal Christians are going to be cast into Hell. That is simply saying that the carnal Christians are going to suffer from a loss of rewards.
@Kyouryuu5000 I'm sorry, but I don't believe this. The reward spoken of here? It's salvation, not just a crown atop salvation. Remember how I was talking about the works of gold, silver, wood, etc.? I wanted to show you some more verses about being unfruitful. I don't have much room in these boxes, I'll start in another one.
@Kyouryuu5000 Not everyone who says they have received Him has truly received Him, just as Matthew 7:21-23. Luke 6:46 also says this:
_____
“Why do you call Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and do not do what I say?
_____
It continues on, not merely explaining the loss of a man's works, but that he will be damned. A man cannot reform himself, only God can change a man. This is something I experienced firsthand and I will explain after these.
@Kyouryuu5000 Please, read 2 Timothy 2:20,21 and Romans 9:19-24. Vessels for common use are vessels of wrath, vessels meant to be destroyed. They will not enter the kingdom; being outside of the kingdom isn't still being in Heaven, it's being destroyed under God's wrath.
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. (Romans 4:5-7).
@Kyouryuu5000 This one, I hope I was clear, earlier. Works cannot justify a man. Instead, faith in Christ Jesus justifies a man, but faith in Christ Jesus is followed by works: a believer will produce fruit.
What I wanted to explain, about me? I have claimed to be a Christian my whole life. I really said I believed in Jesus but I lived like a demon. If someone would have told me to deny Jesus or they'd kill me? I was set I would die: I would not deny my Lord. I'll continue in another post.
@Kyouryuu5000 I was filled with hatred and depression. I'd ask forgiveness and I'd be like "But I don't feel bad about it. Does Jesus till forgive me?". My answer was yes, because He is loving and merciful, right? I did not by any means hate sin but I lived in it: I would have been labeled as a "carnal Christian", maybe. I believed in Jesus but also many other ideas and I liked discussing philosophy, etc. Jesus was not the only way, how could He be? That seemed so unfair. I was "open-minded".
@Kyouryuu5000 One day, something stood out to me while I was watching this pastor on TV: I considered myself open-minded but never tried this "one way Jesus". So, I decided to "empty my cup" (I can explain this if you'd like), to put away my own ideas about things and to just be taught. I decided to follow this guy in prayer, to see what would happen: trial and error, like anything I believed. As I prayed? It immediately felt different than usual. I'll continue this in another post.
@Kyouryuu5000 When I repeated the words "I have sinned against God"? It just pricked. Something hit me hard, like I finally just realized how dirty I really was and how I'd never done anything but evil to the Lord God. As I was praying? All of my hatred and depression, the things I thought people just lived with? It came down so so fast, it was being torn down so fast in me I came so close to tears but I fought the crying. When I was done? I was new: that's all I could tell you. Just new.
@Kyouryuu5000 The guy told me to start reading the Bible, so I did. I mean, I performed an action and I got a reaction, so why not keep trying? Immediately, God destroyed some sin in my life, others I had to fight and overcome. Immediately, God made me hate the sin I once loved and boasted about and love the righteousness I once ignored. I wasn't who I used to be, I wasn't what I used to be: I was a new creature, literally, just as the Scriptures also testify of any believer.
@Kyouryuu5000 I could no longer just sin and have fun in it, there was shame now. I knew it was wrong now and I would hate my weakness and, even if I got trapped in sin for a time? I would eventually run, I would run from it. There was a fight and a struggle inside of me, my Spirit wanted the opposite of this flesh, there was this war that never used to be there.
There was also a love I never knew before. I knew acceptance before, yes, but not love.
@Kyouryuu5000 Contrary to popular belief, acceptance of all things someone does is not love. People accepted me, my false idol Jesus I worshiped accepted my sin. The true God? He had been angry with my evil. Nobody told me that He hated me or my sin, I was fully supported in my evil. When I finally realized that what I had been doing was evil, when God finally showed me? There was true repentance, not just words, but true shame and change. This isn't something that happened to me only.
@Kyouryuu5000 My cousin was changed this same way, made new. So was my wife, her best friend, my cousin's fiance, Paul Washer and just about every other believer I have ever met. This is a good general rule that I have found to be true: if you don't have a new relationship with sin you don't have a new relationship with God. Salvation is not words, it's not a prayer, it's not a decision to be different or more moral, but it is instead a supernatural work of God where someone is really changed.
@brainouty "Can that faith save him"? How is this not addressing salvation? Faith, if it has no works, is dead. What is it compared to? The same kind of death as the body without the Spirit. Faith, without works, is dead. It cannot save. Faith produces works. If it was just faith and no good was produced, then why aren't demons saved?
@BethelShual I just came by to review the conversation between you and Kyouryuu5000. He's acquiting the TRUE FAITH ALONE doctrine well. You are inserting works into the equation. Your post here about James 2 as I already stated, proves you cannot read the Bible, since even in translation James is talking to BRETHREN, and the verse you quote is mistranslated. See my James 2 exegesis playlist, where it's EASY to learn proper meaning.
Now I exit conversation, as Kyouryuu5000 well rebuts you.
@brainouty TO OTHERS: James is on post-salvation SPIRITUAL MATURATION CROWNING, not salvation. When Paul wrote 1Cor, James wrote to the BRETHREN=believers on the same topic, since James' 'ministry' was to saved Jews.
James is hard to follow in translation. So I did a James 2 playlist, to show what he says in Greek. It's easy to learn. He uses 'the', to contrast GOD's Word Working vs. man's works NOT working. So just track his use of 'the' in the videos, see for yourself, so you won't be duped.
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.
“Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’
“And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.’
@GRANTEDREPENTANCE No, meaning 2) is NOT in the Greek. You inserted it, or someone else did. If you want to lie against the text, that's your prerogative, and it's mine, to ignore you. Bye.
@brainouty The Greek word for 2) is instead metamelomai, very emotional; and is in these verses (including apochrypha, so you can see how the verb is used): 2Cor7:8, (cognate noun) Ps. Sol. 9:7; Hos. 11:8; 13:14, Sir. 33:20; Matt. 21:29f; 27:3, Wis 19:2, Prov 25:8, Eze 14:22, Ps 109:4 (110:4 in English Bibles), Prov 5:11, etc.
Notice it's STILL not about sin. Metamelomai connotes REGRET added. MetaNOEW is without that added sense. So either you are lying, or pasting a lie.
@GRANTEDREPENTANCE Actually, Greek metanoew means 'change mind'. In Bible, it means change your mind about Christ, i.e., Mark 1:15; so 'repent' is a SHORTHAND command to change your mind about Gospel. Has zip to do with sin.
Only God can change sin; so post-salvation, one needs 1John1:9 like breathing, else the brain is OUT, Eph4:23.
Matt4:4 is the only way to get operational freedom from sin, hence the need for 1John1:9 so you can be in a spiritual operational status, & LEARN Bible.
Good video! Forsaking our sins is NO requirement for God's grace.
"When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins..." - Acts 2:37-38
XerganzoZX...refreshing, isn't it? This is what someone is like who has cast her pearls to the wrong swine and has learned her lesson. : ) In other words, I'm not going to be nice to you and I don't care what you think of me. And if you're looking for Jesus you are NOT going to find the REAL Jesus in brainouty. Sorry...she serves a different god. The one she has created in her image.
Jesus dealt harshly with certain people and so do I when it's necessary. So as not to cast anymore pearls, I'm done with you here and on other videos as well. If you SINCERELY want the REAL Gospel of Jesus Christ, you are welcome to send me a private message. Other than that, you leave me alone and I'll do the same for you.
XerganozoX, thank you for the compliment, but I must confess I got that from the Bible. I made a "Prolife Blasphemy" series of videos which is unfinished; the conceptual videos are done, but the exegetical videos from the Hebrew text are just beginning.
Okay, that paragraph sound suspiciously like a sales pitch to me. Maybe I'll delete this comment later. I just don't want to get credit for something I didn't do. And I can't even pee correctly!
XerganzoX: coincidently, David used similar words in Psalm 139:16's Hebrew, which of course is reverse translated in English (see my NoWombLife(dot)htm). David's focus was, God foreknew him & yet wanted him to exist anyway.
So while it's true there is no soul life in the womb (eventually I'll post the Hebrew videos, about 500 verses) -- um, the best advice is to ASK GOD like Rebecca did, Gen 25:22.
God has the Right to Life. God, not the state, Exo21:22. Hence 'prolife' is anti-Bible.
Is that supposed to scare me? LOL!!! Or intimidate me in some way? Well...you failed.
I haven't slandered brainouty in any way. What I said was true.
You can't go around saying things about God that aren't true. Brainouty believes in abortion, the taking of an innocent life and says the prolife movement is blasphemous and satanic, she teaches heresy, and lies about Calvinism. She's a heretic.
Now maybe you were talking to me or kbphilly8 when you called one of us a slanderous worm...the way YT orders the comments one never knows. But what I said still applies because kb is my friend and true brother in the Lord Jesus Christ. He belongs to God, he is one of His elect and God will keep kb in his hand just as He keeps me, just as He keeps all of His own.
Sorry you see it that way as it was not intended that way. I worship God for who He is, as He is worthy. If God decided to send me to hell I would still worship Him for He is worthy.
Flesh profits nothing and you must be born again. May you see your sin for what it is and turn to Christ.
One reason I don't like YT is that people read into the tones even when they are not there. I am the king of nothing and I wave nothing. I apologize if comes across that way. I am the chief of sinners and the only difference between me and you is God's grace. I pray that His grace and mercy come to you. Feel free to contact me anytime even though it appears unlikely.
I am glad your language is a little better than last time.
I know this probably does not look good from your perspective. However there is a lot at stake. Brainouty is pushing a half truth, which is poisonous. I have tried to gently discuss this on the side, but was refused. In addition she continues to slander and stereotype.
I am glad you friends with Brainouty and seem to be searching for the Truth, but if all you get is a half truth you will be no better.
Spurgeon - "Free-will doctrine—what does it? It magnifies man into God. It declares Gods purposes a nullity, since they cannot be carried out unless men are willing. It makes Gods will a waiting servant to the will of man, and the whole covenant of grace dependent on human action. Denying election on the ground of injustice, it holds God to be a debtor to sinners."
God Bless Karen! I pray that God would open her eyes to her obvious errors. Only He can change her. Praise be to God that God actually saved people on the cross and not just a plan and didn't leave it up to dead people to try and respond.
It has to be pride. Why else would someone claim that it was there faith when that is against Scripture?
We see the obvious fruits of her theology with the language and lies she spews...I don't see the love there. Let us press on!
kbphilly, Free Will magnifies GOD, not man. GOD created Free Will. GOD's definition of free will is not Augustine's, but since you Calvinists are all DEAF, you never hear God's Definition in Bible. Augustine was a fool, claiming that free will had merit. Calvin idolized Augustine, so likewise thought free will had merit. So Calvin took away free will. So does his minion, Spurgeon.
GOD's definition of free will is NON meritorious, since GOD makes the soul at birth. So you oppose God, here.
John 3:27: "A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven."
Colossians 2:13: "And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses."
Brainouty - In addition faith is a gift of God therefore it is not a salvation by works which you falsely portray. You can tout your mental assent. True salvation is all by God....Praise be to God for such a wonderous salvation.
Yes, SIMPLY BELIEVE CHRIST PAID FOR YOUR SINS AND YOU ARE SAVED. Not, the heresy of Calvin. But then an anti-semite can be expected to get the Gospel wrong. So was Calvin himself even saved? One wonders.
This will be my last post here. Jesus told us to shake the dust off of our feet when ecountering people such as you and brainouty, as a testimony against you (Luke 9:5). And this I will do.
"Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap." Galatians 6:7
"They are from the world; therefore they speak as from the world, and the world listens to them. We are from God; he who knows God listens to us; he who is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error."
Christ didn't teach the HATE GOD doctrine of Limited Atonement. Calvinism does.
Christ didn't teach one must MAKE HIM LORD to be saved. MacArthur does.
Christ didn't teach man loses his free will at the fall. Calvin did.
Christ taught "faith" means you believe He paid for your sins, which is a mental assent, John 3. Calvin rejects Christ's teaching in the Institutes, Book III, Chapters II through V.
Brainouty...listen to me carefully. Take your blinders off and actually READ what I'm typing, okay? It isn't hard...pay close attention.
I FOLLOW CHRIST JESUS AND NOT JOHN CALVIN!!!!
I am not anti-Semitic, for you to insist this is crazy! I told you my husband and children are JEWISH!!! LOL!!! I don't hate the Jews. I love Israel. If I could go to any place in the world, it would be to Jerusalem. Jesus is Jewish...so are the gentiles who are His, we're grafted in....
for you to insist we are anti-Semitic is ludicrous and makes you look stupid. No offense. Calvin and Luther both wrote things about the Jews that I don't agree with. True Calvinists do not believe this way either because true Calvinists are CHRISTIANS!
Jesus taught limited atonement. Go read your Bible and make sure it's not "The Message."
Jesus taught we are to make Him LORD and Savior in our lives.
Jesus teaches that we are not saved by our own free will...try again.
Replacement theology is anti-semitic, KarensFaith. Bible says there are TWO covenants, one for the Jews, one for the Gentiles, but during Church everyone is in Church irrespective of Jew or Gentile. Calvin rejected all that, and said that Church replaced Israel, a doctrine which Calvinism has held to ever since. That's why it is preterist.
HATE GOD is Calvinism. Very patent. Everyone else knows how vilely anti-semitic it is. So keep on typing, Karen.
We don't believe in Replacement theology! Sheesh! I've never ever heard one Calvinist teacher say they do! We are living in the days of Grace. Christ's Church is made up of BOTH Jew and Gentile and we are living in the Church Age for now.
You keep telling me to type. Don't pretend to think I don't know what you're doing. Your pride is revolting. Go ahead and believe what you want. You alone will answer for it. I'm finished here. Go play your game by yourself.
God's Word teaches that we are saved by grace ALONE through faith in Jesus Christ ALONE through His Word ALONE and to God belongs ALL the glory ALONE and not our own freewill!! Calvin believed this and so do I! I can see why you so desperately want to believe in freewill, you have to give yourself credit for your own salvation. Something you like to do a lot, I've noticed. Stop being so impressed with yourself and impress God's Word upon your heart!
Karen you beating against a heart of stone. I tried to show her errors and obvious stereotyping, but she wouldn't listen. She will be held accountable for her words which she so flippantly let's loose.
I've said all to her that I care to say. You can only say something so many times to someone before it becomes redundant and pointless. I will cast my pearls elsewhere...if you know what I mean. God bless you!
Jesus taught HE is the Lamb of God Who Takes Away the sins of the World, that He will draw ALL MEN to Himself. Isaiah 53 is being quoted, and it's blanket, ALL sins being paid for TO FATHER TO FATHER TO FATHER.
But Calvinism hates Father. Hates God. So like Islam, restricts what sins were paid for. That is why no Calvinist is in the Spirit, and never grows up spiritually. Saved? Probably, except the Lordship Salvation people.
And that is my last post to you, KarensFaith. Keep typing all you like. Again, I couldn't ask for better independent proof of the lies Calvinism sells, than your vitriol and ignorance.
You limit the effect of the atonement....You have no idea even what happened on the cross do you...Hebrews 10:14 - For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.
KarensFaith, yes, if your comments don't show it is Youtube, not me, having a glitch. I will NEVER censor you. You're my best advertisement and proof of Calvinism's evil. Keep typing!
I give up! It had a typo...I wrote faith instead of face. Oh well...LOL!!! I wish youtube would fix its stupid glitches and actually let you use all 500 characters! So aggravating!
Ah, brainouty, I see how it is. Someone can blaspheme the precious and most beautiful Name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and that's okay with you as long as the person agrees with you. That shows right there that you're apostate. A heretic.
And as for calling me names? ROFLOL!!! I deal with atheists and witches all the time. Those names are mild compared to their colorful vocabulary which can be quite amusing, actually! They're more creative. LOL!!! And I'd rather be naggy than a heretic like you.
Thank you once again, KarensFaith, for recording publicly the 'fruit' of Calvinism's hate-God and hate-the-Jews, doctrines. No wonder Calvinists are teaming up with the Catholics in mutual understanding. With the anti-semitic history so common to both, with their common hate-God doctrines while pretending to be holy, they have much in common.
Another Reformation is occurring, KarensFaith. The atheist needs to know you all represent Satan, not God. And this time it won't be political, either.
Brainouty, you make no sense at all. We aren't teaming up with Catholics, not the TRUE Calvinist church. No way! We denounce Catholicism for the false church that it is, just as we are doing with you and your false teachings. You can call us names, accuse of anti-Semitism, or whatever all day long...that won't change the fact that you are WRONG! We do need a NEW Reformation day....like the ones of Calvin and Luther, Owen, Brooks, Whitefield, Spurgeon, Edwards, Hass and the other Reformers.
A Reformation that teaches the true WORD of GOD and not what you believe, or Catholicism believes, or the Emergent Church believes. The kind that teaches of sin and its consequences and not this wishy washy God is love and will save us all crap that's coming out in all these "new" theologies today. We don't need a new theology, brainouty. We need a REVIVAL that is based solely on the Word of God and His WORD ALONE! Anything else is apostate and false.
Your pride in your own knowledge blinds you to the truth of God's knowledge and that's a dangerous thing. God is our TRUTH and His Word is our life. Nothing else will do, brainouty. His Word and His Word alone. And to Him goes ALL of the Glory!!!
XerganoX, you don't need to apologize. Yes, you are a declared atheist, and you are welcome here. Before I posted to you the first time I visited your channel.
Thank you also for your writing style. The Calvinists are upset that someone is fighting back. Historically, they bash all other Christians, and usually the other Christians don't know enough about Bible to fight back. But this Christian does.
So maybe I'll end up showing webbed toes, too. Shoot me if that happens?
brainouty, I don't care if you fight back. The Calvinists aren't upset because you're fighting back. No. We are upset because you are spewing heresy, blasphemy and lies. But Jesus said there would be those who do so and we realize that. You're the one doing the bashing here, but hey, you live in your own little fantasy world spouting off the religion about the god you've created in your image. Whatever floats your boat. :) It'll sink soon enough.
First off, we are to state God in the plural number, i.e. OUR GOD, not merely "your God," therefore you are a Church divider. You should read King James' multitude of writings some day.
First off, you a KJV onliest, aren't you? Well...that's it for you. You are teaching heresy right along with brainouty. Sigh....okay, if that's what you want to do, fine by me. See my post above. New policy...I don't debate or argue with heretics. Why? Because it's a waste of time. And now I am done with you as well.
I'm not a King James Bible onlyist, King James states in a Premonition that other translations may be used. Oh, but, you don't read King James (or the King James Bible for that matter).
In a premonition? What? You mean he thought this? Well, I think a lot of things, that doesn't mean they'll come true. Whatever...don't care. I read my Bible everyday -- my NASB. :) And sometimes the ESV and the KJV. NOT the NIV....don't like it. I have said pretty much everything I'm going to say on this video. And there's no point in going over it again. Judge me if you want....I don't care. This is getting repetitious and boring. On to better things.....
Actually... that was the title of James' book: "A PREMONITION TO ALL MOST MIGHTIE MONARCHES, KINGS, FREE PRINCES, AND STATES OF CHRISTENDOME."
Gee, that's rather embarassing that you never knew that :)
I cut it down to a "A Premonition though." It refutes Cardinal Bellarmine and the pope (but circles other issues as well, James is an exponential writer, always delving into other sub-topics)
Actually...I wasn't going to reply to you anymore but I now have something to say. I love history. I have not studied much about this kind of history but have just begun to do so a couple of months ago. I would have gotten to this book of King James' book eventually. It would have been a lot more fun to learn it from a person as well as read about it. So, we could have actually gone over this and I would have maybe enjoyed learning about it from you, but you had to go all egotistical on me...
and treat me like I am stupid for not knowing what this was...your words -- "Gee, that's rather embarrassing that you never knew that" -- why is that embarrassing because I haven't learned about this yet? And did you take the time to find out why I didn't and did you ever consider that you're condescending tone with me right from the beginning would have hurt you more than it does me? Here you had the chance to teach someone something that they didn't know. And I admitted earlier that I was.....
just starting to read the old writings of the Reformers so it would be safe to assume that it also included the writings of others of that time period. William Tyndale was my 13th great grand-uncle....and even though he is and I know he translated the Bible into English and my family is so proud of him being in our family, I am still learning about him. You see, I admit I don't know some things, well, a lot of things, but I also DO know some things that you may not know.
Does that make you stupid and worthy of having me insult you? No. And I wouldn't do that. But you did.
I admit I wasn't nice to you, you put me on the defensive with your very first comment. And that's okay, I'm used to that actually. I get nasty sometimes too. With brainouty, she's a flat out heretic.
Oh well....whatever...I'm a hated Calvinist and we probably wouldn't have gotten along anyway even though I do have friends and family that aren't Calvinists and they are Christians.
They are Christians and they truly love God and serve Him faithfully. Just as I try to do each day.
So this is the last post I am making here. I will eventually come across what you were talking about and I will study it and learn it by myself. I am not stupid, even though you think I am. It's just a pity that you couldn't have told me about it with sincerity and respect.
I cannot strive my conscience to think how one would accuse Brainout of heresy, did you watch her videos? How do you excuse psalm 90? Isaiah 35? etc. I tried refuting Brainout but failed -- you on the other hand are like a papist in King James' day, you simply listen to your emotion rather than common sense and asking God with 1 John 1:9.
William Tyndale wasn't a calvinist I'm sorry to say, he advocated faith only. He actually translated 1 John 1:9 very well, but, that's all that impresses me.
And hey, I'm related to adam and eve, doesn't mean anything :)
I didn't say he was. Sheesh! You read but you don't listen. I said I was going to be studying about the Reformers and others of that time period, for pity's sake and that included Tyndale who was my 13gg-uncle. I was making the point that I don't know a lot of that time period from the Christian perspective. And I didn't say being related to him meant anything. Good grief, it just went right over your head! Sigh.....forget it. I'm not interested in talking about it with you anymore.
You were mocking King James with "a premonition," even though I vividly wrote it was a book. For someone so "sure" of the truth, yet never experienced in deep literature is a sad case. Not knowing this is embarassing, especially this scene you've created. When you find out you're wrong on calvinism, how do you think you will feel when facing God? You will curse yourself; I shall be the last entity on your mind whence the bema comes.
You said the word "premonition" not me! You are vain and egotistical, you are impossible to talk with, you are so infatuated with your knowledge you've forgotten how to relate to people! And for what else you said.....you aren't God either....thank God! So lord yourself over everybody, you've just proven what I thought about you in the beginning-all head knowledge & no HEART knowledge of God or the things of God. Dusting off my feet now! I think I need a shower from all the dust here!
I'm not egotistical, I'm simply mirroring what you've mirrored to me :)
You sure are a very sour and sadistic person, I think you should cheer up - youtube isn't real life, it's just a comment box. As for King James' writings, I'm modernizing them with added notes on my website... anyone is free to read them. Only people limit **themselves** (I have nothing to do with it).
Let's see if some thesauretical words will help, XerganzoX.
If, say, you wanted to call me by the "b" word, you could substitute "curr" or "cur" or "female dog". I don't have good alternatives for the other words.
"@!#$!" might be used.
"bleeping" conveys some of the force of the original.
"doo-doo" is a nice substitute for the "s" word, and even carries more force (idea of childishness).
XerganzoX, I really appreciate your sentiments, but would you care to reword them sans epithet? Come up with something more creative in lieu of the swear words? Cuz some people will ask me to block you for the swear words, but I don't believe in censorship. Help?
Brainouty said "No, Haukman66, the ending letter in metanoew is an omega, not an omicron. I will not be responding to you further. You can't even tell the difference between an omega and an omicron, and you don't understand that Paul is talking to BELIEVERS in 2Cor7:10. God will answer you."
Well my concordance and e sword software must both be wrong!! LOL.
I can't take her seriously either. She got the TULIP wrong by not knowing what the letters stand for! Sheesh! P is for predestination? Give me a break!
Predestination is the BIBLE's term, KarensFaith, which if you ever read it, you'd know. "Perseverance of the Saints" is a MANMADE doctrine started by the stupid Arminians, which if you ever read the Five Points by David Steele, you'd also know.
And if you knew how to view a video, you'd know my video CORRECTED the vile Calvinist 'doctrine' which is totally anti-Biblical, to what the Bible says.
Yes, I know what Predestination is, brainouty. Unlike you, my brains are still intact. But that is still NOT what the "PT" in TULIP stands for. You blew it! Face it. Admit it. You got it wrong. Own up to it. You'll feel better about yourself if you do. Of course right now you feel so good about yourself anyway I don't think you can actually feel any better.
But anyway, I know the Arminians doctrine very well....I used to be one! You screwed up, quit trying to justify your mistakes. That's the problem with the church today, everyone wants to justify their sin instead of repenting of them. Doesn't work. It's God's way or the wide path leading to hell. You corrected NOTHING with your little videos....and I do know how to make videos, I make them all the time and I don't have to throw my "intelligence" around to do so.
In fact, you are so proud of it that anyone who doesn't measure up to what you think we should be is ignorant, stupid, dumb, etc. You are repulsive. Enjoy that "knowledge" all you want, celebrate it, embrace it....it still won't save you in the end because you weren't smart enough to see it for yourself. Pity.
You don't know the Arminian or Calvinist doctrines well at ALL. If you'd read King James' "A Meditation on the Lord's Prayer" or "A Premonition" you'd know that the Arminians denied the trinity. But both religions are false, we're ONLY saved by faith as King James vividly states in the Basilikon Doron. If we're not saved by faith, what CAN we be saved with? That's why Christ had to come (duh).
What? LOL!!! Okay, believe the heretic, I don't care. Oneness Theology denies the Trinity. Not the Arminians, although I will admit that maybe some of them do. I have a KJV Bible, even the 1611 Bible, and the Geneva Bible, but I mostly read the NASB or the ESV. God has to give you the faith to be saved. If He didn't none of us would ever come to Him.
You want to worship freewill? Fine, go ahead. But I worship God and He alone is responsible for my salvation. All glory goes to HIM and HIM ALONE! DUH!
Ah no. Salvation is a free gift dependant on the person if THEY want to believe.
"And because it groweth not in our garden, but is the FREE GIFT of God as Paul saith [Philippians 1:29], it must be nourished by prayer, which is nothing else but a friendly talking with God." - King James, Basilikon Doron
If your faith isn't nourished by prayer, it can be lost (as Paul demonstrates in the end of Romans - but you'll still be saved like the man in 1 Corinthians 5:5).
King James was a mighty man of God; he converted thousands of Roman Catholics to the true doctrines of "salvation through faith only," set the translating rules for our very good King James Bible, and, refuted many false doctrines in his writings. James beats "John Calvin," "Martin Luther" or other nuts of the period. Although, Calvin's works are widely different from modern calvinism today (but you don't read old literature I take it).
He may have been a great man, but he still was not God. And I haven't read a lot of Calvin...yet....I have finally gotten some of his writings and they are fascinating! I read a lot of the Reformers works. Sorry to burst your bubble there. Now, since you are only insulting my intelligence and being insulting and very ungodly, I am dusting my feet of you. Real good "teaching" method you got there. You drove me away. Sigh...
Yes, it comes down to order of salvation and the work of God in a sinner. Which the Calvinists famously get bass-ackwards. Thus proving they are all carnal. Carnality always reads Bible backwards, translates it backwards. Weird phenomenon of history, predictable as the sun rising.
No proponent of the true Lordship Salvation is a proponent of sinless perfection. It sounds like you got some bad info and need to study more. I have studied and examined what you sent and have concluded you are in error. I mean no harm and we will have to agree to disagree.
To say repentance does not mean repentance from sin, but only repentance from a wrong concept of Christ, cannot stand the test of Scripture. It speaks repentance unto salvation, which is in the context of repentance from sin. Now, Ryrie does says that repentance from sin is important. But to say that it is not essential to salvation is to say that Christ died for nothing more than recognition of his office as Savior.
No, kpphilly, repentance is Greek verb metanoew, and means a Change of Mind about Christ, Mark 1:15 is the full definition of the term usually truncated to "repent" elsewhere in the salvation verses. I don't care what Ryrie or anyone else says, I care what BIBLE says.
Oh, the arrogant claim "But to say that it is not essential to salvation is to say that Christ died for nothing more than recognition of his office as Savior". Um, Christ didn't die for OUR recognition, He died to pay FATHER!
Actually the word is Metanoeo. which means to change ones mind or purpose, always in the NT, involving a change for the better. Meaning, to change ones life.
What do you do with 2Cor. 7:10? For the sorrow that is according to the will of God produces a repentance without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death. Hmmmm......
You prove your own ignorance of what Lordship Salvation is....so I see no reason to continue the conversation. I appreciate the info, but it appears we are far off after all. It is not about making a commitment. As you stated no dead person could make a commitment, so that what regeneration is about. It seems to come down to the order of salvation we differ.
No, kpphilly8, John MacArthur's OWN WORDS are that you must make a commitment to obedience to be saved. So the one not knowing about Lordship Salvation, is you. That's okay, but please read what the inventor of Lordship salvation wrote, before you go accusing someone else of ignorance. I sent you a PM of his quotes.
Double-talk. All of it. Only the arrogant are fooled.
Lordship salvation does not say that repentance is a precondition to faith. However, repentance from sin proceeds from faith. We are saved by grace through faith. Do you believe in the doctrine of carnal Christianity?
I already PM'd you, kbphilly8. Lordship salvation is obviously works salvation in disguise. Calvinism becomes Arminius, now. But you will have to do your own analysis.
Mine is now done. I can't think of a more arrogant claim than that a spiritually dead person has to make Christ Lord to be saved.
Those who reject lordship salvation, seem to believe that someone may have genuine faith in Christ, but the fact that the person continues in their sin demonstrates that he has not made Jesus his Lord, only his Savior.
Those who accept Lordship salvation, seem to believe that someone can STOP SINNING in order to be saved. Then why did Christ come? Why do we need the Holy Spirit and learn Bible, in order to LEARN HOW TO stop sinnning, post-salvation?
Lordship salvation people speak with forked tongue. Only fools are deceived by them.
They are all hooked on PEOPLE and BEHAVIOR, looking at PEOPLE. And not at God. Pox on them all.
1John1:9 is what you do when you sin, but you first must be a BELIEVER. But the Lordship salvationists are so PROUD of their COMMITMENT, like bad lawyers they ignore the fact no one can stop sinning. That's why the OT sacrifices existed, depicting what we now call 1John1:9. HIS sacrifice, not man's.
Authentic grace is the undeserved favor of God toward sinners, delivering them from the power as well as the penalty of sin. The true Lordship Salvation theology is not about works....
Lorship Salvation is ONLY about works, and is against its own other tenets. Just because it screams "Grace Grace Grace" doesn't mean it believes in Grace. Which it clearly does not, since to the Lordship Salvation heretics, you have to MAKE CHRIST LORD to be saved. What rot.
So the issue you have in lordship salvation is that someone who is truly saved will produce fruit that will attest to the genuineness of his faith, because he will have acknowledged Jesus not only as his Savior, but as his Lord as well?
No, the issue I have with Lordship salvation is that it claims a spiritually-dead person can make a commitment. Greek verb pisteuw, participal form in John 3:16, only means BELIEVE. BELIEVE in Him, and that second you get eternal life. BELIEVE, not commit. So the Lordship salvation people can't read Bible too well, either.
I appreciate your sentiments, kbphilly8, but really you would do well to Google on "Lordship salvation" and read what its proponents say. You'll come back here shocked.
It's a works gospel, saving no one. It claims you must make Christ LORD in order to be saved.
Go read, see for yourself. That's what I did, and why I made this video even though I'd heard about the heresy for the past 40 years.
Ok I understand your direction. If someone is stating they need to make Jesus Lord in order to be saved, I would agree that it is false. That would be a conditional salvation (see my comment on cheap grace). I don't think we are way off from each other, although there are some things we may not totally agree on. Let us continue to discuss in this manner. God bless!
My comments on cheap grace is not stating that a person earns it by any means. What it is essentially stating that people are brought through the religious things believing they are saved and they just continue down the broad path. I don't believe we need to discuss any further on that issue.
I'll come back to explain more due to limited time. Lordship salvation is basically stating that God saved a person by grace. You nothing to earn your salvation, but when God saves a person He changes a person. Repentance and on going growth all stems from what God has done. I'll have to address what repentance and belief later.
I would have to agree with yshuasgathering on cheap grace. Lordship salvation is true. It is not about works, but the fruit of what God has already done inside someone. It is all about God saving a person even when we respond.
kbphilly8, yshuagathering posts the same things on all channels which explain that because Christ PAID IT ALL, you can't pay anything. Not your tears, not your repentance, and of course no works.
Lordship salvation is works salvation. Weirdly so, because it's the Calvinists who promote it. Calvinism teaches (and somewhat rightly) that man is spiritually dead. So then: a spiritually dead person can't MAKE Christ anything. Certainly not, LORD. So it's false gospel, not to mention arrogant.
Similarly, the 'repentance' crowd can't read Bible, since naming sins was only done by BELIEVERS, i.e., the OT sacrifices. You named your sin while putting your hand on the animal while the priest slew it -- depicting Christ -- on your behalf. See my "Why We Need 1John1:9" video for more verses.
So to claim "repentance" means repentance from SIN, is anti-Bible. Verb metanoew means to CHANGE YOUR MIND -- about CHRIST, Mark 1:15 and related verses.
'The pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.... everyone that exalth himself shall be abased, and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted (Lk.18:11-14)

@BethelShual What use it it, if you don't learn the correct translation and context? See my James 2 Exegesis playlist.
James never talks about salvation in the epistle, but about MATURATION to get the 'crown of life' award, ATOP salvation. James is writing in response to Paul's letter to the Corinthians.

Okay then. If your view of salvation is correct, then why was David called a man after God's Own Heart, yet he committed adultery with Bathsheba and murdered Uriah the Hittite? Did you know that Lot was a believer who did not live for the Lord, yet he still made it Heaven?

@Kyouryuu5000 I'm really sorry. I think I've caused a great misunderstanding. No, no, I'm not saying that works will save you. I'm saying that, if God has changed you? Works will be an evidence of your change, of your salvation. The works won't earn you heaven: salvation is by faith and faith alone in Jesus Christ. Only Jesus Christ can save a man. I'll answer your questions, but I also want to add this, that I know this to be true because I've experienced it first hand, when He changed me.

@Kyouryuu5000 David did indeed sin: I am not saying a believer does not sin because if that were true, I have a problem with verses like 1 John 2:1. The thing is, David didn't practice adultery, he didn't practice evil, he didn't live in evil. A true believer, though they may mess up and stumble? They can't drink sin down like water, the way they could before God changed them. I am talking about not sinning the same way it is spoken of in 1 John 5:18 or 1 John 3.

There was true repentance, not just words, but true shame and change. This isn't something that happened to me only.

@Kyouryuu5000 My cousin was changed this same way, made new. So was my wife, her best friend, my cousin's fiance, Paul Washer and just about every other believer I have ever met. This is a good general rule that I have found to be true: if you don't have a new relationship with sin you don't have a new relationship with God. Salvation is not words, it's not a prayer, it's not a decision to be different or more moral, but it is instead a supernatural work of God where someone is really changed.

Your post here about James 2 as I already stated, proves you cannot read the Bible, since even in translation James is talking to BRETHREN, and the verse you quote is mistranslated.

@brainouty TO OTHERS: James is on post-salvation SPIRITUAL MATURATION CROWNING, not salvation. When Paul wrote 1Cor, James wrote to the BRETHREN=believers on the same topic, since James' 'ministry' was to saved Jews.
James is hard to follow in translation. So I did a James 2 playlist, to show what he says in Greek. It's easy to learn. He uses 'the', to contrast GOD's Word Working vs. man's works NOT working. So just track his use of 'the' in the videos, see for yourself, so you won't be duped.

@GRANTEDREPENTANCE No, meaning 2) is NOT in the Greek. You inserted it, or someone else did. If you want to lie against the text, that's your prerogative, and it's mine, to ignore you. Bye.
brainouty 1 year ago
@brainouty The Greek word for 2) is instead metamelomai, very emotional; and is in these verses (including apochrypha, so you can see how the verb is used): 2Cor7:8, (cognate noun) Ps. Sol. 9:7; Hos. 11:8; 13:14, Sir. 33:20; Matt. 21:29f; 27:3, Wis 19:2, Prov 25:8, Eze 14:22, Ps 109:4 (110:4 in English Bibles), Prov 5:11, etc.
Notice it's STILL not about sin. Metamelomai connotes REGRET added. MetaNOEW is without that added sense. So either you are lying, or pasting a lie.
brainouty 1 year ago
@GRANTEDREPENTANCE Actually, Greek metanoew means 'change mind'. In Bible, it means change your mind about Christ, i.e., Mark 1:15; so 'repent' is a SHORTHAND command to change your mind about Gospel. Has zip to do with sin.
Only God can change sin; so post-salvation, one needs 1John1:9 like breathing, else the brain is OUT, Eph4:23.
Matt4:4 is the only way to get operational freedom from sin, hence the need for 1John1:9 so you can be in a spiritual operational status, & LEARN Bible.

Good video! Forsaking our sins is NO requirement for God's grace.
"When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins..." - Acts 2:37-38

XerganzoZX...refreshing, isn't it? This is what someone is like who has cast her pearls to the wrong swine and has learned her lesson. : ) In other words, I'm not going to be nice to you and I don't care what you think of me. And if you're looking for Jesus you are NOT going to find the REAL Jesus in brainouty. Sorry...she serves a different god. The one she has created in her image.

Jesus dealt harshly with certain people and so do I when it's necessary. So as not to cast anymore pearls, I'm done with you here and on other videos as well. If you SINCERELY want the REAL Gospel of Jesus Christ, you are welcome to send me a private message. Other than that, you leave me alone and I'll do the same for you.

XerganozoX, thank you for the compliment, but I must confess I got that from the Bible. I made a "Prolife Blasphemy" series of videos which is unfinished; the conceptual videos are done, but the exegetical videos from the Hebrew text are just beginning.
Okay, that paragraph sound suspiciously like a sales pitch to me. Maybe I'll delete this comment later. I just don't want to get credit for something I didn't do. And I can't even pee correctly!

Nice try, you cannibalistic troll. Go back to your bridge and crawl under it. I have better things to do than talk to a worm like you.
KarensFaith 2 years ago
XerganzoX: coincidently, David used similar words in Psalm 139:16's Hebrew, which of course is reverse translated in English (see my NoWombLife(dot)htm). David's focus was, God foreknew him & yet wanted him to exist anyway.
So while it's true there is no soul life in the womb (eventually I'll post the Hebrew videos, about 500 verses) -- um, the best advice is to ASK GOD like Rebecca did, Gen 25:22.
God has the Right to Life. God, not the state, Exo21:22. Hence 'prolife' is anti-Bible.

Is that supposed to scare me? LOL!!! Or intimidate me in some way? Well...you failed.
I haven't slandered brainouty in any way. What I said was true.
You can't go around saying things about God that aren't true. Brainouty believes in abortion, the taking of an innocent life and says the prolife movement is blasphemous and satanic, she teaches heresy, and lies about Calvinism. She's a heretic.

Sorry you see it that way as it was not intended that way. I worship God for who He is, as He is worthy. If God decided to send me to hell I would still worship Him for He is worthy.

I know this probably does not look good from your perspective. However there is a lot at stake. Brainouty is pushing a half truth, which is poisonous. I have tried to gently discuss this on the side, but was refused. In addition she continues to slander and stereotype.
I am glad you friends with Brainouty and seem to be searching for the Truth, but if all you get is a half truth you will be no better.

Spurgeon - "Free-will doctrine—what does it? It magnifies man into God. It declares Gods purposes a nullity, since they cannot be carried out unless men are willing. It makes Gods will a waiting servant to the will of man, and the whole covenant of grace dependent on human action. Denying election on the ground of injustice, it holds God to be a debtor to sinners."

It has to be pride. Why else would someone claim that it was there faith when that is against Scripture?

kbphilly, Free Will magnifies GOD, not man. GOD created Free Will. GOD's definition of free will is not Augustine's, but since you Calvinists are all DEAF, you never hear God's Definition in Bible. Augustine was a fool, claiming that free will had merit. Calvin idolized Augustine, so likewise thought free will had merit. So Calvin took away free will. So does his minion, Spurgeon.
GOD's definition of free will is NON meritorious, since GOD makes the soul at birth. So you oppose God, here.

Christ didn't teach anti-semitism. Calvin did.

Christ didn't teach one must MAKE HIM LORD to be saved. MacArthur does.
Christ didn't teach man loses his free will at the fall. Calvin did.
Christ taught "faith" means you believe He paid for your sins, which is a mental assent, John 3. Calvin rejects Christ's teaching in the Institutes, Book III, Chapters II through V.

I am not anti-Semitic, for you to insist this is crazy! I told you my husband and children are JEWISH!!! LOL!!! I don't hate the Jews. I love Israel. If I could go to any place in the world, it would be to Jerusalem. Jesus is Jewish...so are the gentiles who are His, we're grafted in....
KarensFaith 2 years ago
for you to insist we are anti-Semitic is ludicrous and makes you look stupid. No offense. Calvin and Luther both wrote things about the Jews that I don't agree with. True Calvinists do not believe this way either because true Calvinists are CHRISTIANS!
Jesus taught limited atonement. Go read your Bible and make sure it's not "The Message."
Jesus taught we are to make Him LORD and Savior in our lives.
Jesus teaches that we are not saved by our own free will...try again.

Replacement theology is anti-semitic, KarensFaith. Bible says there are TWO covenants, one for the Jews, one for the Gentiles, but during Church everyone is in Church irrespective of Jew or Gentile. Calvin rejected all that, and said that Church replaced Israel, a doctrine which Calvinism has held to ever since. That's why it is preterist.
HATE GOD is Calvinism. Very patent. Everyone else knows how vilely anti-semitic it is. So keep on typing, Karen.

We don't believe in Replacement theology! Sheesh! I've never ever heard one Calvinist teacher say they do! We are living in the days of Grace. Christ's Church is made up of BOTH Jew and Gentile and we are living in the Church Age for now.

God's Word teaches that we are saved by grace ALONE through faith in Jesus Christ ALONE through His Word ALONE and to God belongs ALL the glory ALONE and not our own freewill!! Calvin believed this and so do I! I can see why you so desperately want to believe in freewill, you have to give yourself credit for your own salvation. Something you like to do a lot, I've noticed. Stop being so impressed with yourself and impress God's Word upon your heart!

Jesus taught HE is the Lamb of God Who Takes Away the sins of the World, that He will draw ALL MEN to Himself. Isaiah 53 is being quoted, and it's blanket, ALL sins being paid for TO FATHER TO FATHER TO FATHER.
But Calvinism hates Father. Hates God. So like Islam, restricts what sins were paid for. That is why no Calvinist is in the Spirit, and never grows up spiritually. Saved? Probably, except the Lordship Salvation people.

Thank you once again, KarensFaith, for recording publicly the 'fruit' of Calvinism's hate-God and hate-the-Jews, doctrines. No wonder Calvinists are teaming up with the Catholics in mutual understanding. With the anti-semitic history so common to both, with their common hate-God doctrines while pretending to be holy, they have much in common.
Another Reformation is occurring, KarensFaith. The atheist needs to know you all represent Satan, not God. And this time it won't be political, either.
brainouty 2 years ago
Brainouty, you make no sense at all. We aren't teaming up with Catholics, not the TRUE Calvinist church. No way! We denounce Catholicism for the false church that it is, just as we are doing with you and your false teachings. You can call us names, accuse of anti-Semitism, or whatever all day long...that won't change the fact that you are WRONG! We do need a NEW Reformation day....like the ones of Calvin and Luther, Owen, Brooks, Whitefield, Spurgeon, Edwards, Hass and the other Reformers.

A Reformation that teaches the true WORD of GOD and not what you believe, or Catholicism believes, or the Emergent Church believes. The kind that teaches of sin and its consequences and not this wishy washy God is love and will save us all crap that's coming out in all these "new" theologies today.

Thank you also for your writing style. The Calvinists are upset that someone is fighting back. Historically, they bash all other Christians, and usually the other Christians don't know enough about Bible to fight back. But this Christian does.
So maybe I'll end up showing webbed toes, too. Shoot me if that happens?

brainouty, I don't care if you fight back. The Calvinists aren't upset because you're fighting back. No. We are upset because you are spewing heresy, blasphemy and lies.

In a premonition? What? You mean he thought this? Well, I think a lot of things, that doesn't mean they'll come true. Whatever...don't care.

Actually... that was the title of James' book: "A PREMONITION TO ALL MOST MIGHTIE MONARCHES, KINGS, FREE PRINCES, AND STATES OF CHRISTENDOME."
Gee, that's rather embarassing that you never knew that :)
I cut it down to a "A Premonition though." It refutes Cardinal Bellarmine and the pope (but circles other issues as well, James is an exponential writer, always delving into other sub-topics)
ChristKeep 2 years ago
Actually...I wasn't going to reply to you anymore but I now have something to say. I love history. I have not studied much about this kind of history but have just begun to do so a couple of months ago. I would have gotten to this book of King James' book eventually. It would have been a lot more fun to learn it from a person as well as read about it. So, we could have actually gone over this and I would have maybe enjoyed learning about it from you, but you had to go all egotistical on me...
KarensFaith 2 years ago
and treat me like I am stupid for not knowing what this was...your words -- "Gee, that's rather embarrassing that you never knew that" -- why is that embarrassing because I haven't learned about this yet?

Here you had the chance to teach someone something that they didn't know. And I admitted earlier that I was.....

just starting to read the old writings of the Reformers so it would be safe to assume that it also included the writings of others of that time period. William Tyndale was my 13th great grand-uncle....and even though he is and I know he translated the Bible into English and my family is so proud of him being in our family, I am still learning about him.

You were mocking King James with "a premonition," even though I vividly wrote it was a book. For someone so "sure" of the truth, yet never experienced in deep literature is a sad case.

Predestination is the BIBLE's term, KarensFaith, which if you ever read it, you'd know. "Perseverance of the Saints" is a MANMADE doctrine started by the stupid Arminians, which if you ever read the Five Points by David Steele, you'd also know.
And if you knew how to view a video, you'd know my video CORRECTED the vile Calvinist 'doctrine' which is totally anti-Biblical, to what the Bible says.
But then you are ignorant.

Yes, I know what Predestination is, brainouty. Unlike you, my brains are still intact. But that is still NOT what the "PT" in TULIP stands for. You blew it! Face it. Admit it. You got it wrong.

You don't know the Arminian or Calvinist doctrines well at ALL. If you'd read King James' "A Meditation on the Lord's Prayer" or "A Premonition" you'd know that the Arminians denied the trinity. But both religions are false, we're ONLY saved by faith as King James vividly states in the Basilikon Doron. If we're not saved by faith, what CAN we be saved with? That's why Christ had to come (duh).
ChristKeep 2 years ago
What? LOL!!! Okay, believe the heretic, I don't care. Oneness Theology denies the Trinity. Not the Arminians, although I will admit that maybe some of them do. I have a KJV Bible, even the 1611 Bible, and the Geneva Bible, but I mostly read the NASB or the ESV. God has to give you the faith to be saved. If He didn't none of us would ever come to Him.

Ah no. Salvation is a free gift dependant on the person if THEY want to believe.
"And because it groweth not in our garden, but is the FREE GIFT of God as Paul saith [Philippians 1:29], it must be nourished by prayer, which is nothing else but a friendly talking with God." - King James, Basilikon Doron
If your faith isn't nourished by prayer, it can be lost (as Paul demonstrates in the end of Romans - but you'll still be saved like the man in 1 Corinthians 5:5).

Ummm....no. You're wrong.
King James is not God, I don't care what he said.
KarensFaith 2 years ago
King James was a mighty man of God; he converted thousands of Roman Catholics to the true doctrines of "salvation through faith only," set the translating rules for our very good King James Bible, and, refuted many false doctrines in his writings. James beats "John Calvin," "Martin Luther" or other nuts of the period. Although, Calvin's works are widely different from modern calvinism today (but you don't read old literature I take it).

To say repentance does not mean repentance from sin, but only repentance from a wrong concept of Christ, cannot stand the test of Scripture. It speaks repentance unto salvation, which is in the context of repentance from sin. Now, Ryrie does says that repentance from sin is important. But to say that it is not essential to salvation is to say that Christ died for nothing more than recognition of his office as Savior.

No, kpphilly, repentance is Greek verb metanoew, and means a Change of Mind about Christ, Mark 1:15 is the full definition of the term usually truncated to "repent" elsewhere in the salvation verses. I don't care what Ryrie or anyone else says, I care what BIBLE says.
Oh, the arrogant claim "But to say that it is not essential to salvation is to say that Christ died for nothing more than recognition of his office as Savior". Um, Christ didn't die for OUR recognition, He died to pay FATHER!

Actually the word is Metanoeo. which means to change ones mind or purpose, always in the NT, involving a change for the better. Meaning, to change ones life.
What do you do with 2Cor. 7:10? For the sorrow that is according to the will of God produces a repentance without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death. Hmmmm......

You prove your own ignorance of what Lordship Salvation is....so I see no reason to continue the conversation. I appreciate the info, but it appears we are far off after all. It is not about making a commitment. As you stated no dead person could make a commitment, so that what regeneration is about. It seems to come down to the order of salvation we differ.
kbphilly8 2 years ago
No, kpphilly8, John MacArthur's OWN WORDS are that you must make a commitment to obedience to be saved. So the one not knowing about Lordship Salvation, is you. That's okay, but please read what the inventor of Lordship salvation wrote, before you go accusing someone else of ignorance. I sent you a PM of his quotes.
Double-talk. All of it. Only the arrogant are fooled.

Lordship salvation does not say that repentance is a precondition to faith. However, repentance from sin proceeds from faith. We are saved by grace through faith. Do you believe in the doctrine of carnal Christianity?
kbphilly8 2 years ago
I already PM'd you, kbphilly8. Lordship salvation is obviously works salvation in disguise. Calvinism becomes Arminius, now. But you will have to do your own analysis.
Mine is now done. I can't think of a more arrogant claim than that a spiritually dead person has to make Christ Lord to be saved.

Those who reject lordship salvation, seem to believe that someone may have genuine faith in Christ, but the fact that the person continues in their sin demonstrates that he has not made Jesus his Lord, only his Savior.

Those who accept Lordship salvation, seem to believe that someone can STOP SINNING in order to be saved. Then why did Christ come? Why do we need the Holy Spirit and learn Bible, in order to LEARN HOW TO stop sinnning, post-salvation?
Lordship salvation people speak with forked tongue. Only fools are deceived by them.
They are all hooked on PEOPLE and BEHAVIOR, looking at PEOPLE. And not at God. Pox on them all.

1John1:9 is what you do when you sin, but you first must be a BELIEVER. But the Lordship salvationists are so PROUD of their COMMITMENT, like bad lawyers they ignore the fact no one can stop sinning. That's why the OT sacrifices existed, depicting what we now call 1John1:9. HIS sacrifice, not man's.

Authentic grace is the undeserved favor of God toward sinners, delivering them from the power as well as the penalty of sin. The true Lordship Salvation theology is not about works....
kbphilly8 2 years ago
Lorship Salvation is ONLY about works, and is against its own other tenets. Just because it screams "Grace Grace Grace" doesn't mean it believes in Grace. Which it clearly does not, since to the Lordship Salvation heretics, you have to MAKE CHRIST LORD to be saved. What rot.

So the issue you have in lordship salvation is that someone who is truly saved will produce fruit that will attest to the genuineness of his faith, because he will have acknowledged Jesus not only as his Savior, but as his Lord as well?
kbphilly8 2 years ago
No, the issue I have with Lordship salvation is that it claims a spiritually-dead person can make a commitment. Greek verb pisteuw, participal form in John 3:16, only means BELIEVE. BELIEVE in Him, and that second you get eternal life. BELIEVE, not commit. So the Lordship salvation people can't read Bible too well, either.
brainouty 2 years ago
Yes, Christ paid it all. Grace is grace, which means there is nothing that I do to be saved.
Religion is stating something in my hand I bring.
Salvation is stating nothing in my hand I bring.
Even repentance is a gift.

I appreciate your sentiments, kbphilly8, but really you would do well to Google on "Lordship salvation" and read what its proponents say. You'll come back here shocked.
It's a works gospel, saving no one. It claims you must make Christ LORD in order to be saved.
Go read, see for yourself. That's what I did, and why I made this video even though I'd heard about the heresy for the past 40 years.

Ok I understand your direction. If someone is stating they need to make Jesus Lord in order to be saved, I would agree that it is false. That would be a conditional salvation (see my comment on cheap grace). I don't think we are way off from each other, although there are some things we may not totally agree on. Let us continue to discuss in this manner. God bless!
kbphilly8 2 years ago
My comments on cheap grace is not stating that a person earns it by any means. What it is essentially stating that people are brought through the religious things believing they are saved and they just continue down the broad path. I don't believe we need to discuss any further on that issue.
kbphilly8 2 years ago
I'll come back to explain more due to limited time. Lordship salvation is basically stating that God saved a person by grace. You nothing to earn your salvation, but when God saves a person He changes a person. Repentance and on going growth all stems from what God has done. I'll have to address what repentance and belief later.

yep. it would be like going to the gates of heaven and saying "hey! let me in! i have lots of filthy rags for you!!"

I would have to agree with yshuasgathering on cheap grace. Lordship salvation is true. It is not about works, but the fruit of what God has already done inside someone. It is all about God saving a person even when we respond.
kbphilly8 2 years ago
kbphilly8, yshuagathering posts the same things on all channels which explain that because Christ PAID IT ALL, you can't pay anything. Not your tears, not your repentance, and of course no works.
Lordship salvation is works salvation. Weirdly so, because it's the Calvinists who promote it. Calvinism teaches (and somewhat rightly) that man is spiritually dead. So then: a spiritually dead person can't MAKE Christ anything. Certainly not, LORD. So it's false gospel, not to mention arrogant.

Similarly, the 'repentance' crowd can't read Bible, since naming sins was only done by BELIEVERS, i.e., the OT sacrifices. You named your sin while putting your hand on the animal while the priest slew it -- depicting Christ -- on your behalf. See my "Why We Need 1John1:9" video for more verses.
So to claim "repentance" means repentance from SIN, is anti-Bible. Verb metanoew means to CHANGE YOUR MIND -- about CHRIST, Mark 1:15 and related verses.

'The pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
