       As always I urge you not believe a word that is written in this
       thread but rather be a good Berean and find out for yourself in
       Acts 17:11......For GOD in Pro 25:2..(KJV).."It is the glory of
       God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out
       a matter."

       Not sure I agree with all this and not sure I am a fan of
       Calvinism in some aspects, but this was very educational and
       excellent presentation

       Hi Mark...let me ask you a question. I know you believe in God's
       WORD yet you do not appear to believe in the Doctrine of
       Calvinism. I personally do not believe in everything Calvin
       stated. The Words of GOD tell us everything that are in the five
       points of Tulip.
       You do believe in Free-Will and so do I. How does GOD reconcile
       Free-Will and His Predestined (the Elect) doctrine.   I do not
       know but each time i think about them, I come closer to an
       answer. One day, maybe.
       Another question for you my friend?
       Do you believe a person that has salvation and the Holy Spirit
       can stray away from God so much.....so much that Jesus would
       utter these words to Him/her, "I know you not" when the Rapture
       happens?  (Ten Virgins, Mat 25)

       There are parts of Calvin I agree with.  But overall I would not
       categorize myself as a Calvinist.
       I struggle with all of the things you asked.  My issue is I have
       no good answer to any of those.   If I started trying to type
       and answer I would be writing and deleting for a few hours
       trying to find a good answer of my own.  Like you maybe someday
       I will be able to give a solid reasonable reply.
       In the meantime let me think about it and I will try.

       Lol mark,,, I see you are on the right track. prayer will help.
       If it helps, Paul did not know either....Gal 2:20.....
       I am not sure my answer was a solid reply for I still have
       questions that I keep trying to find the answers but this
       election vs Free-will I have come to the conclusion I believe
       both of them to be biblical and my pay grade is not high enough
       to answer how God resolves these two issues.
       Ass MacArthur once said: "I feel your pain"
       Oh, by the way, did you know that MacArthur took 45 years and
       went through the NT word by word, verse by verse, references to
       the OT by reference.
       Not many will do that but it is the only way to get the truth
       out of His Word. The more I read and apply  literal ,
       historical, grammatical, synthetic hermeneutics, the more
       literal I get.

       Amazing the time he spent.  He has one of the few commentaries
       series that does not push an agenda, but a belief.
       45 years, just amazing.

       yes, it is and as you have said, the only thing He pushes is the
       WORD (S) of GOD and His authority and sovereignty
       Good insight Mark.

       [/quote]24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false
       prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that,
       if it were possible, [size=14pt]they shall deceive the very
       elect.
       A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife,
       vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to
       teach;
       3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but
       patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
       4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in
       subjection with all gravity;
       5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he
       take care of the church of God?)
       6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the
       condemnation of the devil.
       7 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without;
       lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
       8 Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not
       given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;
       9 Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.
       10 And let these also first be proved; then let them use the
       office of a deacon, being found blameless.
       11 Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober,
       faithful in all things.
       12 Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their
       children and their own houses well.
       13 For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase
       to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith
       which is in Christ Jesus.
       14 These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee
       shortly:
       15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest
       to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of
       the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.[/size]
