Apologetics Forum: Ask questions about Christianity/Debate doctrinesOnce Saved always Saved Clarified by Jesus Himself!(19) When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side. John 3:16 destroyed by Theology! This person was a 16 year old baptist! Simple it is!!!!!!!!!!!! ************************************** (22) He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. This person believes in part but has not received the Holy Spirit neither! The person can't read his Bible because he doesn't understand it. This person cares for sin and money more then God! He also confesses I am saved but is not truly Born Again! ************************************** (23) But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. This person believes and has received the Holy Spirit! The person can read his Bible and understand it. He also confesses I am saved and is truly Born Again! Because of the great gift he has received he wishes to tell others about it thus he brings forth fruit. Only thru believe in Christ can we be saved. The old argument that well God, you made me this way, will not work! Because somewhere on this planet is a person similar to you but who choused not to follow the path of sin, same story, same old song and dance. See Jesus Christ is the Word and the Word is Christ. This person believed thru faith that the Word of God was true & could not deny his Savior. So thus he repented of the sin and was set free! The person who changes the scripture to free themselves of a sin is in effect denying Christ! God = Christ = The Word! "No one who is born of God practices sin, because (Christ's) seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. By this the children of God and the children of the "devil" are obvious: anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God" (I John 3:9-10). Love in Christ, Marty |
