    Calvinism is a Cult

    It is obvious then that men are quite apparently NOT all that wise. The Bible's wisdom is supernatural and from above. It depends on what you mean by "evidence". In a judicial system, the testimony of two or three witnesses is more than necessary evidence to support a verdict. We have the...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    I do. I have an M.S. in counseling psychology but I have never seen any scheme of men which can hold a candle to the Bible in terms of understanding the hearts of human beings and dispensing the wisdom needed to help them. That is not to say that some people don't have something wrong with...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    The Bible tells us (in Luke chapter 16) that some people wouldn't be convinced even if someone were to return from the dead to tell them.

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Any of the books of Lee Strobel give plenty of evidence. All of his books are available at most public libraries or, by request, from inter-library loan. The Case For A Creator might be a good place to start, if you are looking for evidence that God exists. If you spent as much time...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    He already did, but you have apparently closed your eyes and ears.

    America is an insane asylum

    Lincoln warned about the power of the Jesuits--he knew that they were the silent hand behind the international banking cabal. Have you ever researched the international banking scandals of the previous decades and how close they come to the Vatican? That having been said, who would know better...

    America is an insane asylum

    Part of the problem is that the Church no longer has the courage of its convictions. What we believe has been attacked from all sides--evolution, "higher criticism" of the Bible by "scholars". Open violence and sin. To my mind, one of the worst sins is the destruction of the innocence of...

    America is an insane asylum

    Actually, Ann Coulter is now officially on the anti-Trump bandwagon. Do the Jesuits work against each other?

    LOL :D

    Calvinism is a Cult

    No they don't. They just have more sophisticated untruths. The Theory of Evolution (and it really shouldn't even be dignified by calling it a "theory"--it is more of a hypothesis) is simply NOT the best answer. The best answer is that there was and is a Creator. p.s. The "Direct RNA...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Oh, poppycock. There is no "reasonable answer"--the "RNA World" hypothesis has failed. You MUST deal with origins, if you are to be believed. How did the genetic information come about in the first place? If you are speaking of natural selection through gene mutation, I'm sure you know that...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    The Holy Spirit tells me that it is fleshly to focus on rewards. We won't get to strut around heaven with crowns on our heads. The Bible depicts the Lord's faithful laying their Crowns at the foot of God's throne.

    Calvinism is a Cult

    It IS evidence for a Creator--I guarantee that you DO NOT HAVE a "scientific answer for how life began and became complex." A massive amount of information would be needed and from where did that information come? You have believed a lie.

    Calvinism is a Cult

    The evidence is all around you. The complexity of life and the information it contains, speaks of a divine intelligence and designer.

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Yes--and that reward will be what? I believe it will be, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant." Getting a commendation from Jesus Christ is incredibly worthwhile--because it comes from the One who is totally worthy.

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Well, good for you. It might help you at the Final Judgment. Jesus gave us a way to avoid that judgment--through faith in Him. The Calvinists here don't believe this, but I believe that if you ask God to forgive you and make you His son, He will. God has obviously called you (otherwise, why...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    I told you in a previous post why the end result is NOT the same for the person helped.

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Actually, there are no heavenly rewards for good works--I believe the rewards will be given when the Church comes down to earth after the Final Judgment. At the Judgment Seat of Christ, there will be commendations and some criticisms--just as Jesus gave to the Seven Churches of Revelation. The...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    No--I am NOT saying that. We don't "set our minds to believe"--we just DO believe. We respond to the Call of God the Father--no one comes without that Call. (1 Cor. 1:24; 1 Peter 2:9; 2 Thes. 2:14; Proverbs 1:24; Romans 1:6; John 6:44). In the John 6:44 passage, the word that Jesus chose is...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    No, because she could merely walk away--just as the rich young ruler did.
