Even more so, it appears that you understand that 'Jesus did not die for everybody'. There are many smart reformed people (Calvinists) who believe this but also believe that Arminians are Christians too ... (on their knees not having the head part like reformed people). I believe that such excusing takes away from the miraculous supernatural testimony that speaks to the 'conquest' represented in the Christian life of sanctification. What say you Kilt Man? I live in Pennsylvania and I am searching for His Bride, that place where He does not share His glory with another.

I have just been reading Mark 1:1-3 and those two references (Isaiah/Malachi) were both about God coming in justice. Yes, he is just to all. God does not simply save the elect, and care nothing for the rest of the world. It is not only negative that he is bringing justice against the world one day, but he also cares about justice in the world today. The other end of the spectrum is the now-common belief that God's full blessing is owed to every human being. The gospel lifts us up and tears us down. Merry torn-up Christmas! :) This is a much-needed corrective.

That is the heart of the Gospel. The Cross displays wrath and mercy. Jesus is a full salvation of righteousness for us, and our sin paid for in His broken body. Matt. 1:21: "She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”" Merry Christmas to you Erik and your family. Have a exceedingly joyful Christmas as you focus on our Savior, Christ the Lord! "When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy! And going into the house they saw the child with Mary his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him." Great quote. That is the heart of the Gospel. The Cross displays wrath and mercy.
