Now I have to be a bit rude. You're a liar.
I did not cut and paste every word of those points.

They are in my being.
They are burned into my heart.
I pray over them, sing them, muse on them, fellowship them and can draw them up from my heart with a just little reminder.

If I check to make sure I am not making a mistake, that is simply being faithful to my mentors.

And the twelfth point did not come from the Hebrews Life Study.

And I'll tell you what. It is none of your business where I got point number 12 because it is irrelevant to the fact that it is TRUE. If it is not true explain why it is not true.

Either that or just grumble off that you don't believe it.

At any rate I'm sorry if you have no effective guiding elder spiritual person in your life. Why be bitter that some of us do have some?

The elder Paul to the younger Timothy:

"You therefore, my child, be empowered in the grace which is in Christ Jesus;

And the things which you have heard from me through many witnesses, these commit to faithful men, who will be competent to teach others also.

Suffer evil with me as a good soldier of Christ Jesus" (2 Tim. 2:1-3)

"The things which you have also learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you." (Phil. 4:9)

How many of you while playing chess feel obligated to inform the world that you are now performing "Alekine's Defense" or doing a "Sicilian defense" ?

If you are adept and practiced up, you just automatically do it without feeling obligated to immediately credit the maneuver.

Teaching or discussing the gospel [ to the teachable, that is] is similar.

Some are not teachable concerning these things so have a craving to hunt for things to complain about.

I attacked your notion that every single person who professes with their mouth their belief in Christ have the assurance of eternal life.

Romans 10:8-8 says: TWO matters related assurance:

1.) Confess with your mouth.
2.) Believe in your heart.

Yes you are very stupid. You are taking upon your shoulders the decision God reserved for His Son Jesus Christ. Only Jesus knows the heart of man who it is that has believed in His heart.

"And call upon Me in the day of trouble: I will deliver you, and you will glorify Me." (Psalm 50:15)

That has no effect on the promise.

The stupidity is yours because verse 11 says -

And it is only Jesus Christ who knows who it is that truly believes. Not you.

Are you then saying that the following verse is not true ?

"That if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." (Rom. 10:9)

Which is worse for you, the feeling of shame for copying someone else’s material, or the feeling of irrelevance that was only your detractors are nothing with this thread?

@divegeester said
I don’t believe you.

The Christians in this forum hardly, if ever, engage with you.

@Rajk999

It is true, but it is not for you to claim that you know who believes in their heart.
Only God knows.

" I have written these things to you that you may know that you have eternal life, to you who believe into the name of the Son of God." (1 John 5:13)
