    To understand "free will" you have to define it with the Word of God. The scriptures are profitable for correction and instruction in righteousness and truth. Scriptures say that man was born in iniquity, that his heart is continually evil and that he is in bondage and a slave to sin. To understand these scriptures and their discriptive totality of mans spiritual and physical state in the world, then you can define "free will" Men have anything but a free will, because scriptures speak of a will tainted by one's own heart, by one's blindness and servitude to sin and the flesh. How can we attribute free will to men when his every thought is tainted by his evil condition. Man is better understood to have a "Slave will". May the Lord give his saints understanding

    While I believe in divine predestination, it is important to understand that humans have a free will. A free will can not save a person, but for a person to be saved they must willingly recieve CHRIST. For a person to remain lost, they must willingly refuse CHRIST. GOD did not create humans incapable of choosing. We do well to realize the Sovernty of GOD. We would also do well to understand how he rules. He freely offers all humans Life in JESUS. But those who refuse JESUS are lost by their choice. GOD gives them what they chose.

    People gave me a patronizing look and a "might be" when I tried to explain that I believed that the number 666 represented two thirds. I guess it came from my excelling in math at school, but that is how it struck me. And then I came across your web site and read how you found from scripture that it indeed was a fraction. Your explanation (much better than mine) sealed it for me. It's just so obvious when you actually think about it. the 1/3 brought through the fire, and the two thirds remaining that are under the wrath of God. It was the same as my idea, except it was put together so much more clearly and backed up with scriptures. So I just wanted to say don't stop preaching mister. You have a gift.

    The thrust of your analysis would indicate that, if a husband physically beats his wife, berates her, and fails to love her, that the wife does not have grounds for divorce: Is this your position?

    Free will means that we can accept or reject God's offer of salvation. Please read the following texts: 1 Tim. 2:14, Gen 2:16-17; 3:6; 6:3, 22; Deut. 30:19, Joshua 24:15, 1 Kings 18:21, Romans 6:16, 2 Tim. 4:7-8, John 7:17; 17:17, 1 Thess. 4:3, Hos. 4:6, Isa. 1:16-20, Matthew 23:37-38, Rev. 3:21; All of Revelation 22. And many others to numerous to mention.

Oh, yes, one more: Ecclesastes 12:13-14.

    YOU HAVE A GREAT MESSAGE HERE "THE ISREAL OF GOD" I am reading your message concerning "The Israel of God" and this is indeed the 12 tribes that are scattered abroad, "My brothern " the Church that Jesus built. Not people in the flesh (neither Jew nor Greek) but people that are in Christ “born again” in the Spirit. Your message is very commendable. I am copying it in larger print so I can read it entirely . I have been teaching and preaching this “Isreal of God” message since around 1975 and it is always refreshing to see others agreeing. Your message is very lengthy and I like all the knowledge in it that I can read and learn from. Thanks.

    Mr.Tony Warren,
I have read through your paper concerning divorce and remarriage. I agree with most of your remarks. There is however one atatement, let's say I do not understand. In Matthew 19:9, JESUS states "I say unto you", not Moses but Jesus, that "whosoever shall put away his wife, EXCEPT for fornication". So reading this there is one exception, and that is fornication. But this is not what you are saying. Can you please clarify this for me?

Thanks,
Henk.J van Rensburg

    Mr. Tony Warren and Mountain Retreat friends,

I am a housewife in San Diego California, and I came across your site while searching for information on women ministers for my Bible study. Upon searching for Ruth and reformed theology I came across your website and I have become hooked on the excellent articles I have found here. Thank you so very much for a great website just chock full of so much useful information and theology. I have learned a wealth of things in just the short time I have been here. It's indeed wonderful to see people working so hard doing the Lord's work and remaining faithful to the bible. Your Eschatology section is a home run. Just amazing how all things work together for good to them that love God. God Bless you.
