Re: Consider Open Theism
God is God, He can't not be in control of everything.
Like you can tell God what he cannot do.
That fact does not affect our ability to live and act as if He isn't there.
You can do what you want. Does not stop what you are doing from being a complete farce.
As scripture says, we can't take credit for our salvation, it is entirely a gift of God "lest any man should boast."
You seem to think that it is either Calvinism or boasting. That is a false dichotomy.

Re: Consider Open Theism
Oh well. I'm simply trying to describe what I understand to be the correct biblical theology and I believe Calvinism to be the correct biblical theology. Sigh.
That's fine. I am pointing to what I see as weak points in your arguments (or in the arguments you accept) for what you believe to be correct.

The significant number composed of 12,000 times 12,000 is identical.
Not what you meant to say. 12,000 times 12,000 is 144,000,000 or 144 million.

Re: On Our Best Behavior
We know it is future; insisting it must already have happened is a delusion of the unbelievers
That is not what Tangle said, Faith. He agrees with you that it did not happen 2000 years ago.

Re: On Our Best Behavior
Yes, my mistake, he thinks it didn't happen at all.
And so do you.

Re: The Rapture
Right, we know how to read the Bible, you should learn from us. We read this kind of scripture as written directly to us as it is supposed to be read. But as I said, believe what you want.
Sure. Let's check back here on October 1st.
