Dear Sweet Jesus! Do you know this because you are a gypsy? (1 John 4:1)

Go away and do not curse us with your wickedness! (Revelation 21:8)

Further, how DARE you correct a MAN, and a Senior Pastor. You would be wise to watch yourself in these forums, since you are still unsaved trash.

I will pray for your soul.

Re: How Do I get Saved? A Guide for the Lost!
 

I am... so deeply sorry, I swear on my soul I am no gypsy scum.

But thank you, for your prayer, even after what I've done, I apologize from the bottom of my heart.

1. What prophecies are you talking about?

2. Now please go and make an introduction thread, so we can gt to know you better and properly greet you.

Re: How Do I get Saved? A Guide for the Lost!
 

Absolutely beautiful.

This has only confirmed and strengthened my beliefs that a life with GOD isn't a life worth living!

To all the heathen dung that is reading this, you better submit yourself graciously to the lord unless you want to sleep in the devil's den!

PRAISE BE.

Hi, Mary!

Why not start an introduction thread of your own and tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus?

Yours in Him,

Pastor Ed

I am new. Glory unto the Lord and not to the prideful.
 

Hi Bob and other's. My name is Johnathan. I do not like to be called John as I have not yet earned the right to be called this Godly name.

I fear God. I have always strived to be a Christian but it is only recently that I have come to see Our Lord in all of his mighty glory. To Fear God was not taught in my church, (which is Grace Baptist in Parkersburg, WV under the pastorship of William P. Oldaker) so I am hear to better understand God's true purpose for me. I used to think it was enough to Praise Him but the punishments God has delivered unto me recently have been a message received loud and clear. I have been a weak Christian. I am repentant and fearful.

I have prayed for forgiveness and thus have been lead here. I don't know why I have been punished but I believe I have been lead here not just to grown as a Christian but for a specific purpose. While the old me would have prayed and been repentant for my sins, I know now I must do more. Please help me find out what that is. I have been reading this message board thoroughly after God had me stumble upon it. I was researching sinful acts of the flesh such as body piercings and tattoos when I found you. I want to know how other Christians are handling this plight. I cannot find a wife when all of the whores are covered in this filth. May God forgive my weakness, it is not in His name.

To make myself the center of this post would be ungodly, therefore I will let more information about me be made available organically. While I am unworthy of God, I am worthy of His word, which speaks to me the loudest is as follows: "For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries. Anyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without mercy on the evidence of two or three witnesses. How much worse punishment, do you think, will be deserved by the one who has spurned the Son of God, and has profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has outraged the Spirit of grace? For we know him who said, “Vengeance is mine; I will repay.” And again, “The Lord will judge his people.” ..." Hebrews 10:21-36

Hello my name was DemonDeric but I have gone to my local church and prayed to got to not cast me into the fiery pits of hell. I am truly sorry Father and I wish to be accepted back onto this website.:D

Re: How Do I get Saved? A Guide for the Lost!
 

This is wonderful news, but I'm not entirely convinced. It would be more convincing if you went to the Introduction forum and introduced yourself there.

Re: How Do I get Saved? A Guide for the Lost!
 

Hello,

I'd like to put this out there, and at the end I'd appreciate it if anyone could remember my question. "Does regeneration precede faith?"

And I am just curious... are you saying that man has autonomous free will? I personally do not believe that it is in the ability of man to believe or reject the gospel freely (in the libertarian sense). Man has no libertarian free will to choose any redemptive good, since his affections are entirely in bondage to sin (until Christ sets him free) and cannot choose otherwise. Scripture defines freedom, not as libertarians do, but as the freedom from the bondage to sin, since we are slaves of sin until the Son sets us free (John 8; Rom 6). Biblical freedom is the freedom to do what is pleasing to God (John 8:34-36; Rom 6:15-23; 2 Cor 3:17) and this freedom from sin is granted in the redemptive work of Christ. Yet the Scripture nowhere says anything about the freedom to choose either contrary or apart from our desires. We either desire and love Christ or we despise him, and if we choose Him, this is the result of sovereign grace giving us a heart of flesh, not a result of nature itself (John 1:13; Rom 9:16).

Man is indeed responsible for the choices he makes, yet deny that the Bible teaches that man has a free will since it is no where taught in the pages of Scripture. The Bible teaches, rather, that God ordains all things that come to pass (Eph 1:11) and it also teaches that man is culpable for his choices (Ezek 18:20, Matt 12:37, John 9:41). Since the Scripture is our ultimate authority and highest presuppsosition, the multitude of clear scriptural declarations on this matter outweigh all unaided human logic.

I don't mean to overly emphasize some point you had not meant, but I am only attempting to get a feel about what everyone here believes, that is, whether there are divisive issues that people side apart from or against. Now back to the question?

Re: How Do I get Saved? A Guide for the Lost!
 

No. If the Bible says it, we believe it, that settles it.

Re: How Do I get Saved? A Guide for the Lost!
 

No? Regeneration doesn't precede faith?

I don't appreciate you trying to pick a fight. I think that's pretty low of you. I won't respond to any more of this kind of mockery. When you registered on this forum, you agreed to the fact you would be joining the chorus of Brothers and Sisters in Christ singing the praises of Jesus, and sharing the Good News that He is going to send every single person on Earth who doesn’t believe in Him straight to Hell.

Hallelujah! Praise the LORD!

Now, stop trying to pick a fight, and start praising Jesus!

\o/

Re: How Do I get Saved? A Guide for the Lost!
 

My apology Mary. When I walked away from the computer after making that post I had that thought that I could be misconstrued of having picked a fight. I'm not here to argue, school or convert people over to my system of belief. Actually, I'm looking for a little relief, a place to kick back and have some laughs after debating elsewhere on the internet. I like what you say, I am here to join the chorus in praising Jesus!

God bless, Mary.

Re: How Do I get Saved? A Guide for the Lost!
 

Praise the lord!

Re: How Do I get Saved? A Guide for the Lost!
 

Please help to save me. I need to be cleansed, how would I become a born again virgin? spiritually I mean. I have sinned and want to repent.

Re: How Do I get Saved? A Guide for the Lost!
 

Well, you could start here, sweetie. :) Once you're done reading what's there, just click where it says "Next>>." And then repeat, repeat, and repeat, until the "Next>>" thingy disappears.

I hope that was helpful. :)

And until you can prove that Mr. Schrader is not a porn spammer, how about apologizing to Mr. Hutchins for that slur?

Re: How Do I get Saved? A Guide for the Lost!
 

This verse tells me that regeneration has to precede faith, because the natural man considers the gospel to be foolishness, so why would he choose it?.


1Co 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.


Also, what about the apostle Paul, he was changed first, so much for his free will.
