Beautiful verse. Agreed. This scripture isn't pitted against Matthew 13:24-30. "An enemy came and sowed weeds." You MUST reconcile all scriptures, not just some. It is necessary. Agree, but He didn't sow weeds. The 'enemy,' according to God, did.

A 'new' culture "Woke" (taken from African American slang "get woke") that advocates for equality and rights for all, has no room for a Christian conservative. It appears she may win this suit because the coaches and school (OK state) failed to include and accommodate all students.

That isn't how most Calvinists argue, the last point of TULIP is Perseverance, meaning they are a new creation that will not do as you suggest. We have to be careful, because I could say this to anyone who quotes Romans 8:1,2 There is therefore, now no condemnation, for those who are in...

Agree, love doesn't mean no discipline. 1 Corinthians to 2 Corinthians is a good example: In the first, a man is disfellowshipped for an inappropriate relationship. In 2 Corinthians Paul urges them, that the discipline worked and to bring him back to the fold. All loving actions...

Okay, take the same argument then and follow it to "You must be born again before you are born again." It is said poorly. Theology needs careful sword work. As far as your reasoning, I may agree: Nobody can 'born nor born-again themselves.' Nicodemus knew that he couldn't do this by...

This is a human thought not scripture. I get why you think this, but perhaps an example: Lon 'wills' that Beloved not post this about God. Lon's will is not thwarted, but Beloved posts anyway. It isn't that God is slow, as some count slowness. IOW, it may 'seem' thwarted to others such...

Uh Oh (redux) Briefly: Inflation is the highest since 1982. The Biden Administration is on the verge of re-entering the Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA) even though Iran has been caught lying and violating the terms of the original agreement. Nuclear experts are concerned that Iran’s nuclear...

"Right?" We are able to 'get away with it' rather. A murder, for however many days it takes to put them away. Same with every other action. We aren't 'free' then, to go against God. That was a mouthful! (run-on sentence). For me, CW: Psalm 20:7 It means I'm not so much into...

"Saved BEFORE Saved" isn't the way to say it. Even in your double-pred theology, there never was a 'before.' "ALWAYS" is in YOUR theology so even for you two, this said terribly. Don't double-down. Say it better and scripturally, else not at all? My two-cents.

Seen this argument before. Rather than making it about a human life with a heartbeat, it becomes a self-centered call to 'my irresponsible rights!' The microphone was supposed to be turned off before she got that far. Governor Greg Abbott of Texas signed the abortion bill on Wednesday...

I understand your point, say it better.

Scripture, Beloved. There is no sense of me even carrying this conversation if the Lord isn't in it. You don't get a pass to speak on His behalf. Post the scriptures or at least just stop posting just your opinions?

When is the last time God talked with you? When is the last time you found substantiation for it from Him? You don't even need to be 'saved' in your UB. And are you going to look over at Sadler and the lazy prophet and say: "You lied to me!" God won't buy it. He sent you me, and you...

I don't know if I have a need. With you? Just a fact. Do YOU know why YOU drop down to basal and call me 'Karen?' I do. "Joe?" Not at all a slam. I just realized your name was likely not "Cain-o." It was even more peculiar when I think of who Cain is so I thought I'd call you...

Philosophy teaching with meaningless platitudes. Philosophy platitudes is all the UB ever offers. There is no direction. Nothing to help you in your time of trouble or need. Nothing to connect one to his/her Savior in a meaningful way. Do you EVER read your book critically? EVER...

Agree, but that is different from what you previously said. I absolutely agree that God quickens us toward salvation 1 Corinthians 4:7 & 1 John 4:19 but you can't say something like 'a rock was a rock before it was a rock.' All things are created, including us. There is no 'saved'...

No it isn't. HE gave the analogy of the wheat and tares. HE did! READ IT! Matthew 13:24-30 24 Another parable He put forth to them, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field; 25 but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went...

"Course" but who cares if God is misrepresented by bad grammar, let alone human and fleshly considerations and rationalizations??? And yes, of course I'd say that the UB is grammatically subpar. IS it a wonder that Joe doesn't know grammar very well either? 🤔 YOU literally MUST rely on me...

Uhmm, No! I asked a lot of questions, for one thing. That you couldn't/didn't/wouldn't address them? Up for posterity of the thread. Next, there is no rebuttal other than "I'm putting my fingers in my ears" from you. You 'think' like a Universalist where God has to save everybody else He...

Which assaults YOUR thinking. Not important. Does it then 'assault God?' No. I've already told you, the wheat and tares literally says "An enemy" came and sowed tares. God never wanted that. Further, the analogy says to the angels to not go out lest ANY of His wheat is uprooted, thus...
