Oh, no....here we go again...am I in purgatory?

No, Deut 30 and 31 are not the same message. A long time ago preachers use to preach what was know as Law and Grace. Law sermons were simply reflecting on our corrupt nature measured against the Law, how we were unable to keep it. Grace sermons reflected on God's goodness. That is why you find "hell fire and brimstone" sermons and "lovey-dovey" type sermons. This is reflected in Deut 30 (grace) and Deut 31 (law). Sadly we find little if any information about Law and Grace today. It is all grace, grace, grace. I had to go back to Arthur W. Pink to find any mention of this.

Does 'your church' teach - "Then Peter began to speak: "I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism". OR does it teach fallacy? That God 'picks' those to be saved.

So....let's start again....

Eve didn't have a choice. She was deceived. Do you believe people deliberately choose to go to hell? Please explain.

If by "God 'picks' those" you mean "God elects those" then that is precisely what the scriptures teaches. I would hope I would not go to a church that did not preach the word.

Again? You are wrong. I never said anyone is going to purgatory because it is not scriptural. Why don't you know that?

Another wrong. Next time go the God's WORD.

So....let's start again....Eve didn't have a choice. She was deceived.

Another wrong start. Adam/Eve could be only be deceived because they disobeyed God's Word. Take note.

If by "God 'picks' those" you mean "God elects those" then that is precisely what the scriptures teaches.

Don't attempt to put words in my mouth. Among others that you received...this is precisely what Scripture teaches - in Acts 10:34. Then Peter began to speak: "I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism".

Do you believe people deliberately choose to go to hell? Please explain.

Along with Acts 10:34, you have been given MANY others Scripture. So no one can explain anything to you. Those itching ears of yours only want to hear somehow you are the 'elect'. Boast much?

Humble yourself OR live in pride - another CHOICE you have to make. Get busy with renewing your mind - time is short. You have company with those who think they need 'works' for salvation.
