Col 1:15 15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: Thats the Man Mediator. Christ is two beings in One, God the Word and the Man Christ Jesus. Cant scratch that out. As the Eternal Logos Jn 1:1 He is uncreated, unbegotten and God, as the Man Christ Jesus He is...

Yes in the spiritual things of Salvation. All of Salvation is conditioned on Jesus Christ in which He fulfilled all the conditions.

Thats sad you dont understand this, however i took time to witness to it. When God gives, its accompanied with the recipient receiving what He gives.

Its inherent, He's God ! God wasn't created ! How can the Logos of God be created ?

You don't get it!

Jesus is God because: He created the world out of nothing, by his omnipotent Word (Gen. 1:1; Isa. 45:12; John 1:1-3; Heb. 11:3). He upholds, sustains, and rules the world, by his omnipotent power (Col. 1:16-17; Heb. 1:3)

When its written that God gives repentance as per Acts 11:18 18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted/gave repentance unto life. 2 Tim 2:25 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God...

When God gives something, the receiving comes with the giving of it. When Jesus Christ gives eternal life, our receiving it accompanies it Jn 6:33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

marke I believe thats your problem friend. Gods will is Omnipotent !

Im not wasting my time with a unlearned question like that. Gods will is Sovereign and successful ! Its not Gods will that any should perish, and all come to repentance, and so shall it be, regarding His Elect ! All others are hell bound according to the same will of God !

The subjects in Jn 3:16 are believing and having eternal life, that in and of itself denotes everyone without exception cannot be meant, because, eternal life in the Divine Purpose is restricted says Christ to as many as the Father has given the Son Jn 17:2 2 As thou hast given him power over...

With God giving Spiritual gifts, the recipients receiving the gift is parcel with Gods giving, thats what solidifies it as a Gift Given and characterizes it as an action of Gods Grace.

Many times in scripture we see employed the word give or gave as it pertains to the gracious giving of God. Here are a couple of examples Jn 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Jn...

The World of Jn 3:16 is the World God loves, hence by giving His Son for it, He gives it life [spiritual/eternal] Jn 6:33 33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life[spiritual/eternal] unto the world.

Since in Johns writings and the need of consistency, there is a difference in the world of Jn 17:9,23 and the world of Jn 3:16 which the Father so loved, Jn 3:16 cannot be mean every individual without exception !

Huh ? Never heard of that. Gods will is that some not perish and repent !

I believe its reasonable to conclude that those Chosen in Christ before the foundation, Christ being Eternal life 1 Jn 1:2, that they would be the ones who had their names written in the lambs book of life from the foundation of the world. Rev 13:8 8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall...

because he delighteth in mercy ! Micah 7:18 Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy. Though God delights to show mercy, its restricted to only...

You still dont get it, Gods will trumps all. If God wills something its done ! Dan 4:35 35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him...
