God is sovereign over ALL of His creation.
WBC,
I’ve all but forgiven up on one of your ex-members. I’ve tried to get him back on the right track and to return to the church, but to no avail. He is such a nice and sweet person and deserves better than what the world has to offer him but he won’t listen.
Instead, he has totally gone over to the dark side. He has made numerous fag friends, appeared on a fag radio show and has been promoting the fag agenda. I talked to him several times but he seems to have totally turned his back on the Faith.
I just don’t understand it anymore. The whole world doesn’t make any sense. Everything that we hold to be true and pure is being destroyed right in front of our eyes. But the bright side is that he’s doing OK. I’ve been checking up on him because I don’t want to see him be starving or freezing to death. Even offered to help him financially but he told me he didn’t need any help.
As for me, I’ve continued my local ministry with a Black brother and some other folks as we preach on the streets of San Jose. We hit shopping malls and local Catholic and Mormon “churches.”
OK, take care. Ohh and Happy Vietnamese New Year! Here’s wishing you and everyone good health and many blessings.
In Christ,
Luong
Hi –
We do not own salvation. God alone can give an ear to hear, or not, at His pleasure. God is sovereign over ALL of His creation. You waste your time trying to talk a rebel against God back over from the “dark side.” You would do well to search out these words and BELIEVE them my friend. Each human and for that matter, ALL of God’s creation, will fulfill EXACTLY what post God appointed them to! NOTHING more, NOTHING less.
NO FREE WILL!
Heb. 6:1 ¶ Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. 3 And this will we do, if God permit. 4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. 7 For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God: 8 But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.
And this: 2Pe 2:21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.
There are MANY, MANY more words to flesh out this doctrine, but if you do NOT believe this MOST important doctrine of the Sovereignty of God, and NO FREE WILL of man, your end will be as those that you described.
Thanks for writing.
Your friends at WBC.
