That's a no brainer isn't it?Simply do not rely on self-judgment, rely on God's judgment.

Reminds me of love. What is faith enough to move mountains apart from love?pardon my interruption into the discussion.... All the time I see people talking about faith being the power to do these things, and to a degree I cannot disagree. That said, it is often said in such a way that it sounds like something we do not something God does (all how it is said and that isn't just words but tone and such we can't see on the forum) In reality our relationship with God is a kind of symbiotic relationship in which we put forth some of the effort (obedience, yielding, even faith) but without God to work with our willingness it is nothing but our filthy rags even if we do it with great faith. If we don't make sure people understand this we are doing a disservice to God, self, the faith, etc.
carry on that is just my two cents.
Isaiah 32: 20Gods judgements are to allow people to know and learn righteousness.
My soul yearns for you in the night; in the morning my spirit longs for you. When your judgments come upon the earth, the people of the world learn righteousness.
Have you ever seen this before?
I'm not sure we always think about what we have faith in. We say God, but there are so many aspects to God...for example, is our faith in His salvation, in HIs power, in His Love, etc.Reminds me of love. What is faith enough to move mountains apart from love?
Our faith (Christ's) given to us from God is that which works in us to both reveal and empower mankind to perform it .The little measure of faith he does give us again is not from us that have no strength to believe and perform .I'm not sure we always think about what we have faith in.

This is not true, Garee. Everyone has the capacity to believe the Gospel. God wants everyone to be saved (1 Tim 2:4; 2 Pet 3:9), and salvation is available to everyone.Our faith (Christ's) given to us from God is that which works in us to both reveal and empower mankind to perform it .The little measure of faith he does give us again is not from us that have no strength to believe and perform .
Calvin is dead, fortunately God is alive. Let there be a new creation and it was good. (The bride of Christ the church)This is not true, Garee. Everyone has the capacity to believe the Gospel. God wants everyone to be saved (1 Tim 2:4; 2 Pet 3:9), and salvation is available to everyone.
Calvin may have died, but unfortunately Calvinism lives on.
Unfortunately, Calvinism isn't. It should have died with him.Calvin is dead,
Amen!fortunately God is alive.
Anyone can choose to believe.Let there be a new creation and it was good. (The bride of Christ the church)
If you mean the capacity because they are still living having a new opportunity every day on the green side of the grass. . . . yes.
This does not make sense.But the capacity to believe God not seen (faithless powerless humans) coming from a dying body working out the death sentence (its appointed for all men to die once) There will be no double jeopardy and a retrial. The verdict is in the wage of sin is death never to rise to new life according to the letter of the law, as it is written
Yes, anyone can choose to believe.. but believe what or who?Anyone can choose to believe.
You are judging yourself to be saved.Simply do not rely on self-judgment, rely on God's judgment.
