So why not answer the question describing how the type of error makes a difference? It's your belief not mine so I still can only guess at what you mean.That depends on the error.

So why not answer the question describing how the type of error makes a difference? It's your belief not mine so I still can only guess at what you mean.That depends on the error.
So, does the Christ not know now the exact # of those who will be saved and are welcomed in on the day of judgment? If He does not, then He isn’t omniscient.Isaiah 65:2-6 I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, (Romans 3:12-18) ...after their own thoughts; [3] A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick; [4] Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels; [5] Which say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day. [6] Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,
Isaiah 58:9-11 Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; [10] And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday: [11] And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.
Romans 2:8-11
But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, [9] Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile: [11] For there is no respect of persons with God.
do not see how Calvinism Fares well with “stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou.” and “if thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity.” He is “in the midst” of His people,
Matthew 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
For example, arminianism is an error. But I believe there are Christians who are arminian. But I do not believe there are Christians who deny the Deity of Christ.So why not answer the question describing how the type of error makes a difference? It's your belief not mine so I still can only guess at what you mean.
Thank you! That was painless, was it not. You could have done that in your first response. Saved or not, elect or not, some people need explanations. They don't all have your education.For example, arminianism is an error. But I believe there are Christians who are arminian. But I do not believe there are Christians who deny the Deity of Christ.

His love is beyond all knowledge.of course He knows. Don’t fully disagree. Most Questions I have is the “chosen of God” that maybe is stretched way beyond (imo) the intent entering into the camp of great swelling words and the yoke of vanity. Not “easily to be intreated” but the opposite. One(imo) that doesn’t line up is selling the chosen of God do not endure wrath. HE did. (Hebrews 12:3)
And God Himself spoke He was chosen of God and approved, no debate there I hope. So is it The chosen of God do not endure wrath or “endure” is Action where wrath does not destroy (consume)what remains? Luke 23:35-37 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God. [36] And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar, [37] And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.
1 Peter 2:4-5 To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, [5] Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
the other question concerning “chosen of God” is they tempted Him that if He was “the chosen of God” to save Himself. yet the Chosen Son of God said “the bread I give is my flesh which I will give for the Life of the world.” even sinners and enemies like you and I.
when the Lord said to take away (remove) from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity.” is He not saying to remove from the midst of thee that which speaks great swelling words and vanity (emptiness). To instead put on Christ “take on my yoke” “for I am meek and lowly”. Again, some of Calvinism I might would agree with, some of the words sound to similar to claiming “chosen of God” yet we save ourselves and to hell with everyone else.
And I will not disagree with that. When I see myself, I wonder why sometimes. Why me, Lord? Why me? I don’t understand it fully, but I love Him more than ANYTHING!His love is beyond all knowledge.
Now this is how He is made manifest to the nations.And I will not disagree with that. When I see myself, I wonder why sometimes. Why me, Lord? Why me? I don’t understand it fully, but I love Him more than ANYTHING!
God can be a generic term to some. They can say God is eternal, but also say the Christ inherited powers of godhood and that makes Him a created being. He inherited nothing from God as He is God.
GOD poured out his own WRATH on HIS SON!!

Revelations 19: 11-16
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND Lord OF LORDS.
