You keep using that word predestined"
We have a free will - Except Apparently God knows all our choices?!!??!
Who said "predestined?" I said God "knows" not chose. If a loving God "knows " the outcome for Elaine "Why create her at all?"
So it is linear? God knows Elaine is going to hell. Damn "petty" of God (Ubby says).
Wow... you are so going to burn in Hell. You claim to be a pastor, and you believe this crap?? You realize that the only people whom Jesus got angry with were those who were blasphemers in the Temple of God.... that's you, Waco1947. You are just an outright blasphemer and false teacher. Your judgement is gonna really suck. I would feel bad for you, but you have willfully chosen this judgement for yourself. Really sad.
"Jesus was not brought down by atheism and anarchy. He was brought down by law and order allied with religion, which is always a deadly mix. Beware those who claim to know the mind of God and are prepared to use force, if necessary, to make others conform. Beware those who cannot tell God's will from their own. Temple police are always a bad sign. When chaplains start wearing guns and hanging out at the sheriff's office, watch out. Someone is about to have no king but Caesar." Barbara Brown Taylor
"For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear." - 2 Timothy 4:3-4
28 Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God,[
a] which he bought with his own blood.[
b]
29 I know that after I leave, savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock.
30 Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them. - Acts 20:28-30
16 He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
17 Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of the lawless and fall from your secure position. - 2 Peter 3:16-17
5 They are from the world and therefore speak from the viewpoint of the world, and the world listens to them.
6 We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the Spirit[
a] of truth and the spirit of falsehood. - 1 John 4:5-6
18 For they mouth empty, boastful words and, by appealing to the lustful desires of the flesh, they entice people who are just escaping from those who live in error.
19 They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravityfor "people are slaves to whatever has mastered them."
20 If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning.
21 It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them.
22 Of them the proverbs are true: "A dog returns to its vomit,"[
a] and, "A sow that is washed returns to her wallowing in the mud." - 2 Peter 2:18-22
17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.
18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.
19 Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. - Matthew 5:17-19
You are a false teacher. You make up things and call them sin, such as white privilege and anti-abortion. Meanwhile you claim that the clear teachings of the Bible are not true. You deny the character of God, and you throw the most basic truths of the Gospel into doubt & confusion. You "entice people who are just escaping from those who live in error". You promise them freedom, but you instead entangle them back into lawless, sinful ways.
You attempt to contradict the Word of God by using quotes from regular people, as if some woman named Barbara has greater authority than the Holy Spirit or Jesus Himself.
You are a type of anti-Christ, in that you are trying to lead people away from Jesus and His teachings. You have supposedly studied the Bible, so you have no excuses. You have chosen your own intelligence and your own way. You have rejected the truth of the Bible because it hurts your feelings or it just doesn't make sense to you... and you seem to think that you know better. I have no pity for you. When challenged, you depend upon the words of regular people, rather than the Word of God. You have made your choice, and you will suffer the consequences of that choice.
To all of those who truly love Jesus.... it is not enough to simply ignore a false teacher like Waco1947. It is our duty as Christians to call him out and sound the alarm. He is here to try and lure the new believer away from the truth. He is here to try and take people away from Jesus, and back into darkness. We have to protect the new believers from these kinds of wolves. Don't grow weary of doing good.
