    The lord is among us

    Everybody wants to be a special little snowflake. Now, if God actually spoke to you, You would not be claiming yourself more holy than others. God spoke to Paul; what did he say? things like "I am the chief of sinners" and preached constant humility. I have but one thing to say:

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Evidence? Look around; The earth is a perfect example of "evidence" of a creator. The fact that this planet is the only planet that has the exact distance relative to the sun to sustain life was no accident. All of creation screams evidence of a creator. You just have to look around and see.

    Calvinism is a Cult

    God is not something you prove. God does not prove Himself to anyone, because He does not obey the commands of men. Look around. Nature screams that there is a God and that He is good. Belief in Him is a gift from God. Only those whose eyes God opens will see Him in His Word and believe. There...

    God "spiritualizes" EVERYTHING.

    I've heard from so-and-so and/or believed my whole life that Calvinism is bad and wrong, therefore it is bad and wrong. [Reformed person appeals to Scripture, uses both Scripture and logic, exposing flaws in 'getting faith', but not 'saving myself'] ..... Well, you're a Calvinist, so instead...

    You are a Calvinist, therefor you lost..... Everything wrong with the Arminian argument in one sentence.

    Calvinism is a Cult

    So she could have overpowered Christ's command? She had more power than Christ?

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Yes, and you are SAVED by Grace, through faith, not faith through grace. In order to be saved through something, that something[in this case, grace] has to be there first. Scriptures don't contradict themselves; men contradict Scriptures.

    Calvinism is a Cult

    So YOU are the catalyst, not God. What you are saying is "Apart from me choosing first, God can do nothing in my life" Completely the opposite of what the Scriptures say.

    Calvinism is a Cult

    How could Jesus do this? Would commanding her to sin no more not over ride her free will?

    Calvinism is a Cult

    So, the woman was then sinless? Jesus made it so she would never sin again?

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Neither. The chief end of man is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. This is the ultimate purpose of doing good; serving God. You said "Who cares if some of my motivation is self serving?" This is like putting a glass of water with a drop of poison and a glass full of poison in front of...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Here is the problem; Men can never do anything that is completely good apart from God. Each action we make has 3 parts: Motive, Means, and Goal. 1.) Motive -- Why are we doing what we are doing? [People apart from God are doing good things to feel like a good person, which is actually serving...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Still trying to find the "except have faith, that is something you must do on our own" part....

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Jesus had changed her heart. Her choice is not what saved her. If she were to go and never sin again, would that be enough? She met with the face of the Savior, and her heart was opened by His presence. Yes, He told her to do this, but that doesn't mean she has the ability. If I told you to go...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    He told her not to commit this sin anymore. You think she lived the rest of her life sinless?

    Your favorite Psalm?

    Psalms 58 is one that spoke to me. It shows the power of God and His wrath against the unrighteous, but also His love and mercy towards His beloved.

    THE CHURCH

    Yes, I agree that the Holy Spirit speaks to the hearts of men through the Word, but people have been saying they heard God say something to them, which is what I was speaking of.

    THE CHURCH

    If you believe you and others hears Christ talking to you, why aren't you writing down exactly what He said and adding it to your Bible? If Christ speaks directly to you, that is divine revelation and therefore should be added to the canon of Scripture. The Bible is the Word of God given to man...

    Christian Apologetics by Van Til -- Ch. 1.2

    After a "brief" break, I return to tackle this book once more. OVERVIEW In this section of the book, Professor Van Til begins talking about Theology; specifically the being of God. He is very concise in his explanation; this entire section takes up no more than 2 pages, but is very heavy with...
