What Is The Worth Of A Person’s Soul?

What Is The Worth Of A Person’s Soul?

 

“My soul is of more worth than ten thousand worlds.” – John Flavel

 

worth of a soul by john flavel

 
Is that quote by John Flavel a biblical statement – if indeed Mr. Flavel ever said such a thing? It is a statement that can be said of the Lord Jesus Christ but can it be said of a sinner, even a sinner saved by grace?
 
Romans 5:6 states: “For when we were yet without… Continue reading

Is Arminianism A Damnable Heresy?

Is Arminianism A Damnable Heresy?

by Stephen Pribble

 
Having been condemned by the Synod of Dordrecht (Dort) in 1618-1619, Arminianism is indeed a heresy, a serious departure from the historic faith of the Christian church. “Arminius, a theological professor at the University of Leyden, departed from the Reformed faith in his teaching concerning five important points. He taught conditional election on the ground of foreseen faith, universal atonement, partial depravity, resistible grace, and the possibility of a lapse from… Continue reading

The Free Will Gospel Refuted By John 3:16

Jesus Christ only died for those who believe on him

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>
