Yes, the word (with/without a Capital 'E'), is given 17 times in the Bible. 'Elect' is a doctrine even Paul taught in Rom and 1Co. Even Peter and the epistles of John use it.

"Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord." (Rom 12:19)

those who believe that Jesus Christ is 'fully man' and 'fully GOD'. those who believe that Jesus Christ was crucified to the souls of God's Elect that He was buried for three full days and was resurrected from the Grave proving that He held the key of Death in His hands. Those who believe the...

only the true believers. Yes

yet, the verse 12 states: "If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:" To deny His word or Him is to condemn oneself.

Clete sometimes you surprise even me. all of the above I agree with you except the very last sentence..For only 8 people of the world survived Noah's Flood and only Lot and His family left Gomorrah while the rest were destroyed. All of both sites that died, went to Hell according to the WORD of...

I believe that John McArthur is a Calvinist (six point) as am I. The following is posting from an unknown author. It effectively shows the differences between those who believe in TULIP and the Arminian faith. Enjoy!! "Arminianism is True Grace" "I was standing at a pulpit in a church filled...

Rom 8:29 only speaks of Salvation as in election. Nothing else.

In other words, God (the Father), the Son and the Holy Spirit does every thing that is necessary to bring salvation to each person 'believing', yet it is still up to man with that 1% free will to determine if He want to live with GOD for an eternity or NOT. Thus GOD has no power over death...

Good evening Clete. God placed and/or made sure that many king in history got to where He wanted them to be; including Trump.

did He pick Him, Yes and No....for it is in His plan....about 1/3 of the population of the Jews died during this time....In contrast, 2/3 of the population of the Jews will die and only 1/3 of them will live. there are many anti-christs throughout the history of man and many more to come...We...

God is in control and Yes as you say, He is the king maker, in the OT times and in our times as well...

care to give the scripture for that??? Otherwise from what I read above, You do not believe God is in total and complete control of ALL things. Everybody has to make that decision, you are not alone. So, the only way GOD could engineer a lie into the future would be to interrupt man's free...

the last question first....is Yes it has crossed my mind. His Sovereignty is complete. Do you believe He has complete control of ALL things that are within His purview? There is no need to define it for it is a True or False question. My definition of "outside His purview" = anything not within...

Good evening JudgeRightly, good to hear from you again!. On the reality point you were trying to make. God see a line of the future He wants but decides to change something. then looks at it again and it is good. Not our reality yet...When in a thousand years, in our reality, God makes that...

Hypothetical: God sees into 1,000 futures. He decides on future 765. This future includes a small change that He made way back in 1995. Because He had already seen all the possibilities that would happen before and after He changed His mind in this 765 future, would not the "future be settled"...

If you believe what you just said, you got a big problem!

In regards to "'could of', 'would if', 'should of' and 'if only'". At being close to 75, I have been there many many times. As for now, I am solid and in need none of the above 'phrases'. For it was the Lord Jesus Christ by Himself who saved me from certain damnation (all of Him and none of me)...

'could of', 'would of', 'should of' and 'if only'

Go back to the New Covenant. As humans, 'all of us' sin everyday yet when one is Justified, their past sins are removed completely. "for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more." (Jer 31:34) This is the same covenant the gentiles have inherited and will receive when...
