402: The Bible and the Wife's responsibility to the Husband
Hers is a recognition of the husband's leadership, wisdom and tenderness. He should be as loving toward her as Christ loved the church. At this point, there are several privileges that belong to the wife. For instance, she is to be loved like Christ loved the church as commanded in Ephesians 5:25. She is to be honored as none other in I Peter 3:7, and she is to be praised by her family, Pro. 31:28. In Titus 2:4 we read, "That (the aged women) may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed". Here is a fine list of the responsibilities of the wife. All of these are important, but let us just dwell on four of these. "To love their husbands" is a command. Too often this is equated by men to believe it is only a sexual relationship and in the mind of some women, that is all they think they are good for. To love your husband means that ... ...

404: Bible Texts Calvinists misuse to prove "Eternal Security"
Commit - from the Greek word POIEO. This word refers to what one does repeatedly, continually, habitually. It does not mean that a person does not occasionally sin, but will not make a constant practice of sin. Cannot - from the Greek word OU-DUNAMAI. This means morally unable and not that which is physically impossible "And so the word in our verse does not mean that the child of God has come to the place where he is physically unable to do any wrong, but that he is morally restrained from it, just as a good man who is asked to join another in some came would reply, ""O, no, I couldn't do anything like that."

... This is accomplished by a painstaking study of the key words, as defined in the dictionaries (Hebrew and Greek) and as used in parallel passages. Research also the specific meaning of these words in idiomatic phrases as observed in other parts of the Bible. Consider how confused a foreigner must be when lie reacts in a daily American newspaper: "The prospectors made a strike yesterday up in the mountains." "The union went on strike this morning." "The batter made his third strike and was called out by the umpire." "Strike up with the Star Spangled Banner." "The fisherman got a good strike in the middle of the lake." Presumably each of these completely different uses of the same word go back to the same parent and have the same etymology. But complete confusion may result from misunderstanding how the speaker meant the word to be used. Bear in mind that inerrancy involves acceptance of and belief in whatever the biblical author meant by the words he used. If he meant what he said in a ... ...

407: Questions for advocates of inherited sin
Why did Jesus never teach that man was depraved or blamed mans sin on Adam. Rather he always held each man responsible for his own sin. If every newborn is "utterly indisposed, disabled, and made opposite to all good, and wholly inclined to all evil", then how do we account for the goodness of the "unregenerate" like Cornelius, Acts 10:1-4, 22, or anyone else today. How do we account for all the good things that non-Christians do? then how can "evil men proceed from bad to worse" 1 Ti 3:13? Why is the Greek word "sarx" (English=flesh, Mistranslated "sinful nature" throughout the NIV) which Calvinists say teaches the inherited depraved sinful nature of man, also used in scripture of Jesus in Heb 2:14; 1 Pe 4:1; 3:18; 1 Jn 4:2? Why would Jesus not inherit the guilt of sin & depravity from his mother Mary?

Thou shalt not arbitrarily switch the definition of terms like "commandments" and "the law" in passages to avoid contradiction with your own theology. Thou shalt realize that the book of Genesis does not contain the word "Sabbath" and nowhere in the New Covenant is the Sabbath day commandment found, instead, it says the Sabbath was abolished! Thou shalt never again misquote Matthew 5:17 (jot or tittle) as a proof text for Sabbath keeping.

... rightly, and it is only within the Church that we find the gospel." (The Shape Of Sola Scriptura, Keith A. Mathison, Reformed Protestant, 2001, p 268) "The authority of the Church is important for our discussion because of the fact that the Church is given the authority by Christ to teach and preach the gospel. The Church is the body with the ability and authority to speak. The Scripture contains the content of what she is to speak. Scripture does not and cannot preach itself. And a Church without the Scripture has nothing to say. It is to the Church as a visible body that we must turn to find the true interpretation and preaching of the good news of Christ. ... modern Evangelical doctrine of Scripture [ie. individuals interpreting the Bible alone without creeds] essentially destroys the real authority of ministers of the Word and the Church as a whole."
