So you’d rather these hands, that are huge underdogs, just fold when you make a raise with the much better hand??🤯

I understand what you’re saying though!

You say these people hit these outs in the river, so you could fold on the river, BUT, you’re wearing a hat that says “bet rivers” so it sounds like you’re stuck between a rock and a hard place!

AND, at the end of the day big guy, I bought one of YOUR books back in the day, not one of theirs!

[J @JMJ3282]

What happens if you back to living a life of homosexuality or drunkenness, or adultery….then you are no longer being obedient to Christ or the scriptures.
And we are told in the scriptures that if you live that way, you will not inherit the kingdom of God.

So yes, obedience very much is a requirement for salvation, because if you live a life of disobedience, we are told you will not inherit the kingdom of god!

Jesus over and over demands our obedience and says what happens if we don’t obey God.

So you and Danny go right ahead and teach a false gospel that says “obedience to Christ is not necessary for salvation” even though the scriptures contradict that very teaching Danny espouses here!

Again, his exact words, not mine!

Have a good night!

[J @JMJ3282]

I’m not misconstruing anything…I’m literally quoting his exact words.

You say works aren’t necessary, but what about obedience to Christ…is that necessary, because he said neither works NOR OBEDIENCE are necessary.

I’m not sure how you can take that sentence any other way! Again, it’s exactly what he said.

[J @JMJ3282]

That’s exactly what he said! Literally his words!

“They also teach that works & obedience are necessary for salvation—which is a false gospel.”

He is saying that obedience is not necessary for salvation that if you say that, you are preaching a false gospel!

Take it up with him, those are his exact words!

[J @JMJ3282]

@JayG_124 @Truth_matters20 I mean, the Bible literally says the opposite of what you just said there!

“You can see, then, that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.”

Unless you don’t consider James 2:24 the inspired word of God.

“Sidestep any and all doctrinal issues”

Well, if you shared your denomination it might clear some things up. You say you are a Protestant…are you a Protestant who believes you can lose your salvation or not?
Do you believe baptism is just a symbol or actually does something to your soul?
Do you believe you must be baptized to be saved or not?
Do you believe in baptizing infants or not?
Do you believe in predestination, or double predestination, or neither?

And I could ask a whole host of other questions.

The answers to these questions are different from one Protestant/denomination to another. They don’t have one unified answer, so I’m not sure why answering what denomination you are is so hard.
But, suit yourself!
Saying “you’re Protestant” doesn’t really mean much.

@ATradCatholic @EcciusMaximus @BibleInContext1 @rickbrennanjr Yep! Just challenge something simple and instead of responding, he’ll just block!

There’s too many Catholics calling him out.

[J @JMJ3282]

@MattWalshBlog Let’s not be unreasonable Matt! 🤦🏻‍♂️

[J @JMJ3282]

@patrickmadrid @MrCasey62 I asked pastor Rick this same thing in response to him making a claim about Catholics, and instead of answering, he just blocked rather than explain.
There is no answer, and when pressed, they all know it.

[J @JMJ3282]

Wow, is this all it takes to get blocked from pastor @rickbrennanjr
Your 180 flip flop you did on @GuerillaLawyer must have you sensitive! Bibleincontext takes way more heat than this and yet this little comment has you blocking people!
Didn’t you just say that @Trent_Horn wouldn’t have Brian on because he’s scared and yet YOU are the one blocking people!
I’d say I’m shocked, but I’d be lying!

[J @JMJ3282]

Yes, I bet @Trent_Horn is so scared! Get out of here with that!

Maybe he’s busy right now. Maybe he can’t just pause what he’s doing to allow Brian a platform he doesn’t deserve. Aside from the recent controversy, the guy is so dishonest that I don’t blame anyone for not having him on.

[J @JMJ3282]

“Historic Protestantism does not teach…”

Well that’s the problem. Nowadays, there’s so many different teachings in Protestantism. Some say you can lose your salvation, some say you can’t. Some believe baptism isn’t just a symbol, some do. Some believe in infant baptism, some don’t…and on and on and on!

So before you start with “whenever a Roman Catholic wants to ask an insincere question…”
maybe you should first educate other Protestants on what “historic Protestantism” teaches and be on the same page with them.

But, in doing that, they will just claim that they are following the Bible and you’re wrong, and it turns into the classic, sola my interpretation.

[J @JMJ3282]

@MrCasey62 I’ve been in many Lutheran churches in my days and seen many crucifixes in them, so apart from her argument being irrational, it’s not even factually correct!
Unless she doesn’t consider Lutherans to be Protestants!

[J @JMJ3282]

Not too mention…he’s border line making an argument from silence.

We don’t KNOW Jesus never baptized anyone personally…scripture is silent on that.

We do however know that scripture doesn’t contain all the things the Lord said and did, because as John tells us, if everything the Lord did and said were to be written down, the world could not contain it.

And this would lead us back to the usual argument, that the Lord did not establish a “Bible” rather He established a Church to carry out His mission.

[J @JMJ3282]

@MrCasey62 St. Paul:

“We preach Christ crucified…”

[J @JMJ3282]

@Kenneth_Walker9 EB didn’t refer to you as “a competitive prick” so you still have a little bit of work to do!

[J @JMJ3282]

@ReformedToRome @JPuncut Big emphasis on “today!”

[J @JMJ3282]

Did David ask God to cleanse him of his sin after that?
Yes

After that, did David go on murdering people?
No

If he did, would he need to ask god to cleanse him of his sin again?
Yes

Again, this is not hard, and a complete waste of time! I will let anyone else who may want to respond to these absurd things if they wish, but I’m going to have to leave it there with you completely ignoring Paul and God!

[J @JMJ3282]

@pzj1801 @BeHumbleWithGod @TimThorsby @MrCasey62 This is why this is so dumb to go back and forth!

Read what Paul wrote! If you don’t want to live by it, that’s your choice! He says if you X, then you won’t inherit the kingdom of God, therefore, DON’T do X, do the opposite!

Or whatever you choose, that’s on you!
