The explanation of about you calling Christ's sayings "
Reformed" is in the post to which you replied (
post #3,663).
Do not try to shift the center of this discussion to me! God has me focused and centered on the Savior God named Jesus Christ! We Christians have the promise of God proclaimed by the Apostle:
My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.
(1 John 2:1)
The One who declares “
This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent” (
John 6:29).
You, and your free-willian cohort, convey "
I chose to believe in Jesus, so He must save me".
You proclaim that abomination of controlling God in defiance of the Christ of us Christians saying “
you did not choose Me, but I chose you” (
John 15:16) and “
I chose you out of the world” (
John 15:19).
The Lord also says:
- "If you love Me, you will keep My commandments" (John 14:15).
- "He who does not love Me does not keep My words" (John 14:24).
If you believed Jesus Christ, then you would have repented.
“
The one practicing the Truth comes to the Light, so that his works may be manifested as having been wrought in God” (
John 3:21).
It is part of Free-willian Philosophy which holds that a person with the person's will is separated from God, and in that state of separation, such a person can choose God; therefore, you free-willians believe that "
apart from Christ, I chose Christ", yet the Christ of us Christians declares "
apart from me you can do nothing" (
John 15:5) and "
Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the Kingdom of God" (
John 3:3) and “
you did not choose Me, but I chose you” (
John 15:16) and “
I chose you out of the world” (
John 15:19, includes salvation) and “
This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent” (
John 6:29), so you preach and teach and believe falsehood (2 Peter 2:1; 2 Peter 2:9-10).
Christ reveals that
the love of Christ controls us believers (2 Corinthians 5:14), but your spirit declares that you control Christ with your purported choosing to believe in Christ which forces Christ to save you.
We Christians are in Christ exclusively because of the work of Christ, but you deny this fact (see 2 Peter 2:1 and John 3:3 and John 3:21 and John 15:5 and John 15:16, John 15:19, and John 6:29).
Behold, you show no repentance nor apology for your antagonistic slur you directed at God's Holy Spirit for God has me proclaiming the Good Message of Christ according to Christ, so you believe that the Christ's "
doctrine is blatantly harsh, and is no gospel at all" (proof
post #3,644).
Again, go back and read the plentifully loving sayings of the Christ of us Christians in the post to which you replied (direct link to
post #3,630)!
Your heart makes false statements about God and man. Free-will is a conjured concept of the traditions of men (Matthew 15:9).
In Truth (John 14:6), the Almighty God is Sovereign (Genesis 1:1) in man's salvation and affairs of man (Daniel 4:34-35)! PRAISE GOD THE FATHER, THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND THE SON OF GOD, ALL THE ONE TRUE GOD!!!
