Re: My Case for eternal Hell

Tell me in your own words; What it is Paul is talking about from verse 4:1-5:21? I have not seen you refer to one dot or tittle of what Paul is talking about in the passage , yet U-R demanding it is a proof text for a doctrine that is neither in the context, or purpose of the paragraph, or the vers...

Re: My Case for eternal Hell

I still think it's a bit of a stretch to say that nonbelievers are saved from sin and its effects simply because believers are not sinning against them... but I digress. You mentioned that the word especially is the hard part. Advocates of UR see this verse as giving some indication that believers i...

Re: My Case for eternal Hell

Hi JR. I was not asking my questions because I was confused (as you seem to be implying), but they were intended to be rhetorical questions. The verse clearly says that God is the Savior of all men. But we are told that only those who believe will be saved. Therefore, I concluded, that those who do ...

Re: Confessions of a Quasi-Partial-Preterist

"But immediately after the tribulation of those days THE SUN WILL BE DARKENED, AND THE MOON WILL NOT GIVE ITS LIGHT, AND THE STARS WILL FALL from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth w...

Re: My Case for eternal Hell

Hello all, again. :) I'd interpret it like this: - "For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have fixed our hope on the living God, who is the Savior from sin of all men, especially of believers in Jesus ." (Underlined words added by me.) God saves us from more than one thing. God has sav...

Re: My Case for eternal Hell

1 Timothy 4:10 seems like it irrefutably teaches universal reconciliation. If most people remain separated from God forever, how could it be said that Jesus is the savior of all people, or the world? The word especially implies that nonbelievers will also be saved somehow. How is this to occur but i...

Re: Is it even Biblical to Pray for a Person’s Salvation?

I agree with the article. I think it's silly semantics to say that it's unbiblical to pray for someone's salvation. Anyone who holds to a non-Calvinist understanding of salvation would believe that free will has a part to play. God will not override someone's free will in order to answer a persisten...

Re: Talbott's Presentation

‘Proposition three is beginning to be easier to let go of when I think of the fact that most scriptures in its defense are either in the context of parable, hyperbole, or extreme symbolism’ (Rich pg.1) That is far from true, and even the scriptures that are hyperbole or symbolic represent a reality...
