Predestination And Free-Will – What About The Sin Of Unbelief?

Published September 27, 2011

Predestination And Free-Will

What About The Sin Of Unbelief?

 
Some people who claim that man has a free will to accept Christ are also saying that the only sin that keeps a person out of heaven is the sin of unbelief. That idea probably comes from this verse:
 

John 8:24 – “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not.”

 
This verse is certainly true in what it… Continue reading →

Predestination And Free-Will – What Does The Bible Teach About Justification?

Published September 27, 2011

Predestination And Free-Will

What Does The Bible Teach About Justification?

 
What exactly did Christ accomplish at Calvary? Did He just open the door to heaven for everyone as Catholicism teaches? Did He make it “possible” for all men to be saved? Was His death a complete payment for the sins of all men even those who will end up in hell? Are men in hell simply for rejecting the gift of salvation that Christ supposedly bought for them or… Continue reading →

Election Or Atheism – No Middle Ground

Don Fortner

 

“So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth. Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he… Continue reading →

Objections to God’s Sovereignty Answered

Featured Gospel Message

Christ Died For The Ungodly

by Horatius Bonar

The divine testimony concerning man is, that he is a sinner. God bears witness against him, not for him; and testifies that "there is none righteous, no, not one"; that there is "none that doeth good"; none "that understandeth"; none that even seeks after God, and, still more, none that loves Him (Psa. 14:1-3; Rom. 3:10-12). God speaks of man kindly, but severely; as one yearning over a lost child, yet as one who will make no terms with sin, and will "by no means clear the guilty." <continued>
