I suppose it depends on precisely what you mean by "Once saved, Always Saved." If it means that when Jesus saves a sinner, granting him or her eternal life, He will not allow that saved sinner to become unsaved, then it does make sense for Jesus to teach it. If on the other hand it is used to...

So will I, in the sense that we can never be saved by keeping the law. But Jesus upheld the Ten Commandments. He gave the summary version of them: “‘And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This [is] the...

God's election/choosing happened "before the foundation of the world": “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be...

TULIP is not hyper-Calvinism. TULIP is an acronym that stands for the English words sometimes used as shorthand for what are called the Five Points of Calvinism. Those five points were written, not as a complete declaration of Calvin's theology, but were written by Calvin in response to five...

It was my pleasure! God bless you.

"Seed of Abraham" in Paul's sentence, " For they are not all Israel who are of Israel, nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham" means those who were natural descendants of Abraham. Writing to the Galatians, Paul explains who the true sons of Abraham are - not those who...

Sorry, I don't know what you mean. The Old Testament tells us the reason God confused languages at the Tower of Babel, as I said, so how is believing what God's word says about it taking away the key of knowledge? The light to lighten the Gentiles refers to Jesus Christ. It occurs in elderly...

Sorry I wasn't clear. I got the impression from your earlier post that you were saying that Israelites, in the sense of those able to trace their ancestry to Abraham, are saved differently to the way Gentiles are saved. I was saying that there is no difference. A better passage than the one I...

I think that is reading more into the account of the Tower of Babe; than is there. In that account, we are told why God confused the languages: “And the LORD said, "Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do...

Yet Paul wrote: “But it is not that the word of God has taken no effect. For they are not all Israel who are of Israel, nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham; but, "In Isaac your seed shall be called." That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the...

That just isn't so. Baptists don't claim to be Catholic, nor do most other Protestant denominations. Maybe catholic with a small c, meaning universal, world-wide, but not Catholic with a capital C, meaning joined to the Roman Catholic church.

Jonah 4:11 says: “"And should I not pity Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than one hundred and twenty thousand persons who cannot discern between their right hand and their left — and much livestock?"” (Jon 4:11 NKJV) Nowhere do we read that God loves animals or that animals will...

I did say "Christian." If a person is truly a Christian, then he or she is saved. I agree that only saved sinners will be in heaven. Yes, glory to our powerful and gracious God!

I don't know who Steve Brown is, or what he believes, but my post asked where in the bible are we told that the departed souls of animals will be in heaven?

Where in the bible do we read that God loves pets?

Not so. The Messiah said, "I and My Father are one." Even His enemies recognised that He was claiming to be God: “Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God.” (Joh 5:18 NKJV)

Willingly. Here is John 1:1-3: “In the beginning was that Word, and that Word was with God, and that Word was God. This same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by it, and without it was made nothing that was made.” (Joh 1:1-3 GenevaBible) And verse 14: “And that Word was...

Well, John 1:1-3 says: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.” (Joh 1:1-3 NKJV) It is clear from verse 14 that by "the Word", John is...

Where in the bible are we told that the departed souls of animals will be in heaven? Not so. Jesus was talking to humans when He said: “"But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. And whoever says to his brother, ‘Raca!’ shall...

I agree that we are not saved by a piece of wood, but Paul uses "the cross" as an indication of the Saviour's sufferings: “For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of...
