  • @tseales Amen! :)

  • @meinaim Oh, I didn't notice it was that old a comment! I'm sorry.. haha.

  • @goodintentions002 ...when you say this, then I would open up this video again to find out that my entry already is one year old and that you are right with Titus.

    I would appreciate if they always note the scripture he is referring to in these glimpses of his sermons.

    Thankl you for your good intension!

  • @meinaim And when I say 3:6, I mean 3:5.

  • I can find no difference in myself and anyone who is at this very moment in Hell, except for GODs sovereign choice and effectual work of salvation by grace alone. I am not smarter, or wiser, or more virtuous and I know full well that without the indwelling HOLY SPIRIT I could not even understand the scriptures.

That the natural way of thinking. But thanks be to God he has shown me that Gospel light to know what grace really means. Freely given means that even if I have to ask for it salvation is not free. Why he chose me I don't know but I am glad he did. Eph. 2:8 For by grace are we saved through faith. And that not ..
