I have a real simple trivia question .You are teaching that you were born again, before you had faith......that your FAITH came after your "birth in the Spirit".
So, that deception is not going to dwindle away . as you are determined to keep telling it.
What did JESUS say . ALL WHO BELEIVE shall be saved .
what did paul , peter and others say
example . But sirs what must We do to be SAVED . they said what , YE MUST BELIEVE .
So why on earth is that message being turned into
a message of ye were born again , THEN etc , etc .
THE MESSAGE of HOW to be saved was always , YE MUST BELIEVE .
do not let one person TAKE that truth from you .
Lets redo the scene with paul and silas and make it sound like this other calvin led message .
The jailer rushed up and fell before them and said sirs what must i do to be saved
and the apostels answer and said , OH YOU NEED TO BE BORN AGAIN .
No they said YE MUST BELEIVE . OF course we know the born again are saved and that one must be born again .
BUT Notice the message IS FIRST , YE MUST BELIEVE .
At least that was what JESUS taught and later the apostels .
Imagine if i went around doing good to folks and etc
and saying to them , OH ye must be born again . THEN just walk off .
THEY have no idea what that even means . NO sir we must preach YE MUST BELIEVE IN JESUS THE CHRIST .
I can tell the whole world ye must be born again . WHICH would be true . BUT What good will that do them
IF I TELL THEM NOT , YE MUST BELEIVE JESUS IS THE CHRIST . Our message stands . YE MUST BELIEVE JESUS is the CHRIST .
who so ever hears amen . who so ever rejects its on them .
