You do understand the phrase, as does every true believer is a modifier. A modifier you said you used. Methinks I said.

As far as knowing about you keeping posts, you let it slip in your egotistical pride. You, in your pride, told me you discussed the definition of the Kingdom of God, in post 3753, in May, 2014 to Light.

I have discussed it -- a long time ago with Light. I first mentioned it in our little debate over Lk 17:21 in my 12461 date 5/15/14 on the old Religious thread.. As usual, you're a dollar late and very many days short.
You frequently tell posters to refer to specific post numbers. You must keep a record. At the least you know what you said in these posts and then you misrepresent like you you did with your methinks statement.

You have given a new definition to the term "incoherent". You truly are living proof of what someone looks like when he goes off the rails and his meds all at once and simultaneously. In a word: pathetic!

All I said is quote me. At this time I am not discussing anything until you quote my exact words you claim I said.

I used your method of syntax hoping to successfully communicate with you.

The phrase "as every true believer" doesn't modify anything. I only included others in with Calvin. I could have just as easily have written:

"Calvin and all other believers discovered the true Gospel." It doesn't change or modify the sense of the sentence. The verb "discovered" isn't modified either. All the phrase does is include others in with Calvin.

Tough bananas that you don't like my record-keeping protocols. I know which posts I want to keep and which I don't.

Gen 3:22-24

NASB

Babble from a psycho. Your babble is out of context. The context of the discussion is the text of Calvin's commentary.

The last sentence was a new paragraph. New paragraphs are new thoughts. I was referring to the class of persons who are partakers of the Holy Spirit.

What is your supposed great point. Is it your continuing point that you lack comprehension?

In the context of your claim, I stated that a personal pronouns cannot refer back to a common noun used in the same sentence as the personal pronoun.

More blather and irrelevant nonsense as to Calvin's commentary. The art of deflection by boxcar.

Only in Humpty Dumpty world. Of course the qualifying phrase as every true believer changes the complete meaning of your poorly written sentence.

YES, for, what the 100th time, you could have put more thought into your sentence and wrote a better sentence. You didn't and you lied about using a qualifier saying methinks I said.

You wrote a poor sentence, trying to make an idiotic claim, and now you have to live with what you wrote about your idiotic claim.

Boxie:

These should be an easy questions.

You believe in double predestination, correct?

God determines who is saved and who is condemned in eternity past, correct

You believe you would be saved no matter what, even if you were born in a Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist practicing nation or some isolated area, is that correct?

God preordained your salvation prior to you being born, correct?

You could breath easy for awhile, boxie. You've gone off the rails enough today.
I have to leave.
