βWatch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.β -Matthew 26:41
The woman of Revelation 12 is NOT Mary! Mary is not the βQueen of Heavenβ and was not bodily assumed into Heaven. The more I study scripture, the more I realize the stereotype of Catholics not knowing what the Bible actually says becomes more and more true.
βTherefore, as one trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all men.Β For as by the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man's obedience the many will be made righteous.β -Romans 5:18-19
Who is the βyouβ here that Peter is writing to? (Hint: start at the beginning of the chapter or even better, read the entire epistle) βBut do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.Β The Lord is notβ¦
Two things people get wrong that distort everything else: -the gospel -regeneration If you have these wrong, your view of God, salvation, and yourself will be distorted. To err on these isnβt a small mistake, it is building a theological framework on a broken foundation.
βNow to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us,Β to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.β -Ephesians 3:20-21
βIt was God's will that Christ through the blood of the cross should effectively redeem from every people, tribe, nation, and language all those and only those who were chosen from eternity to salvation and given to Him by the Father.β -Canons of Dort, 2nd Head of Doctrine,β¦
We do not call ourselves Calvinists because we follow a man. We follow Christ. The name Calvinist is not our boast, but neither is it our shame. It was never our invention; it was a label thrown at us, as it was in Calvinβs own day, when he wrote that such a name βis not to beβ¦
Iβm fixing dinner tonight & my daughter comes out of her cave with an attitude & tells me Iβm cooking what she was about to cook and eat.. Me: βOkay great!! Whatβs the problem?β Daughter: βEveryone else will be eating it tooπβ I didnβt realize the rest of us werenβt allowedβ¦
βNo Catholic Or Orthodox Believe You Earn Salvation By Worksβ Except All Actual Catholicsβ¦
Because Heβs longsuffering toward His people - those whom He has chosen, foreknown, and is patiently drawing to Himself. Thatβs what the text says: βlongsuffering to us ward.β Peter is writing to believers (2 Peter 1:1), and he includes himself in that βus.β This isnβt a generalβ¦
If youβre in the Fatherβs hand, itβs not because you climbed in, itβs because He placed you there. You didnβt save yourself, and you canβt unsave yourself. No one slips through omnipotent fingers, not even you. His grip is stronger than your wandering.
The Roman Catholic Church has gotten worse... And that's why the reformation is not over.
The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God
