So Beloved from what i can gather from what you are saying is ,God created man in his own image and He did not create the serpent seed. Satan created serpent seed ?
He created the elect in adam in His own image, the seed of the devil was created in their Fathers image, the devil..
Jn 8:
44Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do
No God created the serpent seed, satan cannot create..
Duh where does it say he wouldnt ? he has a seed, thats for sure gen 3 15
The seed is the word of God
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
God's seed (word) is truth and is life giving
Satan's seed(word) is lies and death(murder)
Adam believed the lie as well as Eve so the seed of satan was sown in both of them.
Fundamentalist, I find it interesting that you tell pcamps to stop reasoning and only use scripture. Then you immediately forsake scripture and use reasoning of John MacArthur.
Fundy, the Bible does not say that God's "love is reserved for believers alone." My Bible says "God so loved the world." It also says He came into the world to save **sinners.**
Of course the elect are showered with blessings far in advance of the rest of mankind during the coming ages. But this does not mean God will not shower loving blessings on the rest of humanity at the consummation of the age times.
I wonder why MacArthur doesn't say anything about all mankind being made sinners due to what Adam did and the same all mankind being made righteous due to what Christ did? (Romans 5:18,19). Maybe it is because he is blind?
Interesting and right on point. The elect are the ones who accepted Jesus Christ as their personal savior, nothing more or nothing less, these are the ones presdestined by God the moment they became born again and adopted into God's family as new creatures in Christ.
Yes thats a seed too, but we not talking about that seed now, at least i am not, i am talking about this seed..gen 3:
14And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: 15And I will put enmity between thee [Serpent] and the woman, and between thy [serpent] seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Now do you believe God or what ? God says satan, the serpent has a seed..

More False teaching, the elect are accepted of God, before the world began..they didnt have to do anything to be accepted of God..
