Well, well, head honcho, it seems that your oft self proclaimed high standard of hermeneutic understanding has deserted you. I still wait your answer to Acts 17:28 which has a clear and obvious plain text meaning to me. Here are the Qs again.
Acts 17:28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being' as you rightly point out is talking about a time in the past. So in who? How did we move? and how did we exist? in this previous time?
In a perhaps not so coincidental coincidence Kat Kerr herself, yesterday, discusses this verse. I recommend that you take an hour to see what these prophets 'who do not exist today' sound like. Find out how big Heaven is at the same time too.
http://e.elijahlistmail.com/t/26880067/272362924/213718/253/Once established that we (our spirit only) preexisted our birth on earth it becomes clear that all the scripture you quote to back up your position can and should be interpreted differently in that God loved everybody and predestined all to be saved but we had to choose to be saved along the way.The default was saved, but we had to answer the call.
Please give me your best piece of scripture to confirm otherwise, You quote Ephesians 1 but I quote the same back at you to back up my position note how
verse 4 describes our pre-existence
verse 13 describes us believing and trusting as part of the process
There is nothing throughout that contradicts my stance that God purposed all to be saved but some rejected the offer.
Lets do the verses together, one at a time.
