The Reprobate and the Elect

The issue is not whether or not you KNOW that there is "ONLY ONE GOD IN ALL OF EXISTENCE", for such a fact CANNOT be denied.

You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble!
James 2:19 NKJV

It is also an illusion that any man can "accept Jesus into their heart"or "make Jesus Lord of their life". Jesus IS LORD over EVERY life, WITHOUT exception. Is what does happen is that the regenerate person is changed, and he glorifies God as God. Herein is the line drawn between the elect and the reprobate, between salvation and abiding under God's wrath.

For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
Romans 1:20-21 NKJV

What then does it look like to glorify God as God?!

Sacrifice and offering You did not desire; My ears You have opened. Burnt offering and sin offering You did not require. Then I said, “Behold, I come; In the scroll of the book it  is written of me. I delight to do Your will, O my God, And Your law is  within my heart.”
Psalms 40:6-8 NKJV

This is the work of God alone as Jesus is manifest in our lives through the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit. This is what "the remission of sins" looks like.

John 3:16

If this verse means every person to ever live, Paul and John don't agree.

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
John 3:16 NKJV

Shouldn't Paul have said "as Jesus loves the world" instead?

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her,
Ephesians 5:25 NKJV

Rapture

Some things I read are so retarded. Listen. The Bible CANNOT contradict itself. Period. If it did, anywhere, it could not be truth. Rules of logic dictate that to opposing views CANNOT both be true. This verse by itself is what would be called the limiting factor. As this verse MUST be true there is no rapture before the tribulation ENDS. This verse EXPLICITLY says that the tribulation is cut short because of the elect's sake. Read your Bible, AND BELIEVE IT. The other Scriptures that talk about a rapture MUST BE interpreted with this clear verse in mind. Sola Scriptura.

For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.   And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
Matthew 24:21-22 KJV
