@Just_ebube This is your personal "sin". Not a choice but a sin. That is why Christ died, because given our sin nature we prefer to kill instead of love. You should repent of your sin and confess the name of Jesus.
"This perseverance of the saints depends not upon their own free will, but upon the immutability of the decree of election, flowing from the free and unchangeable love of God the Father."
- 1689, 17.2
Remembering this verse as I read crazy comments on social media. "For we ourselves also once were foolish, disobedient, deceived, enslaved to various lusts and pleasures, spending our life in malice and envy, despicable, hating one another (Titus 3:3)."
"Every believer first of all receives his religious convictions from his church...
All dogmaticians, when they go to work, stand consciously or unconsciously in the tradition of the Christian faith in which they were born and nurtured." Herman Bavinck.
The simple believes everything, But the prudent one discerns his steps. The simple inherit folly, But the prudent are crowned with knowledge. - Proverbs 14:18
@MtZionAD33 Your right you didn't say brainwashed. Just that I am in the "thick" of things. One thing I learn every semester is, there is much more to learn. I think you missed an opportunity to learn quietly.
All I ask is that You respect the men that spent 4 years to become master's men.
@MtZionAD33 Well I was going to message you in private, but I guess you would rather block people then discuss.
You call me brainwashed, but did you ever actually take a class from either of the two professors you know better then?
Are you practicing Act 17:11?
Consider Proverbs 18:17.
@MtZionAD33 Wow it is upsetting that alumni are so confused about what makes a masters man.
What makes a master's man is graduating with a degree from TMS.
We probably should talk in person.
@MtZionAD33 Anyway I think this post was designed to celebrate the guys who were graduating TMS. They have been trained in the way the post said.
If you are still in LA I'd love to sit down and talk.
@MtZionAD33 Hey man,
Hey man, sorry to hear about your personal problems.
I do not believe that post mentioned or was referring to the discussion you are thinking. From the standpoint of the tweet. (maybe your more into the allegorical herminutic then me).
