Different laws. One is from the beginning. The law of sin and death that has ruled mankind in death since Adam's first sin. The other one was ADDED...... Gal 3:19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made...

You're reading way too much into the teaching. It is simply the fact that God keeps those in Him. Some take that to mean they can do whatever they want. Some take it as requiring responsibility. The truth is somewhere in-between. I've never meet anyone that can cease from sin. Nobody. Nada...

The law was never given to Gentiles. All men are governed by the law of sin and death. Your construct is weak. It demands Jewish law for Gentiles.

Calvin didn't originate the Scriptures.

At times. Yes. At times. No. Paul's appeal to allegory is certainly a clear indication but we don't have such a definitive statement for all OT Scripture. For example, the birth of Jacob and Esau is clearly allegorical. They represent the first and second Adam. Just making the point in the...

"ME IT"....

A literal birth can also be allegorical. Both is an option. One does not preclude the other.

It does seem to make them feel just a little superior than they already believe themselves to be.....

The "New"????? I believe in "if saved" always saved. It would be a "poor" religion that made Eternal Life dependent upon the impeccability of flesh.

Jesus Himself had multiple Gentiles in His lineage. Tamar, Ruth...... There is no Jew that isn't one "inwardly"........ Rom 2:29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

You do not deserve to be saved anymore than any other human being. Why are you trying to exclude your brothers in humanity? Cain did this. Do you remember Cain? He hated Abel.

Your entire theology is a "strawman". You can't defend it from the Scriptures. Calvinism is "Calvin's" theology. Nothing more. I posted a verse from the Scriptures that speaks of Jesus Christ being God's Elect. You should have recognized this. If you really know Calvinism, you would know the...

Adam exercised his free will to sin against God. Man does the same thing continually. There is no difference. Can you explain how they are different?

I've debated many Calvinists in my life. They ultimately rejoice in the "Good Pleasure" of God to damn the vast majority of humanity to hell without remedy. I call this "rejoicing" in the fact they attribute this to "God's Good Pleasure"..... I don't remember any apostle mentioning Calvin. Do...

Calvinism feeds the carnal nature of men. It is in the nature of men to hate their fellowman. There brothers in Adam. Just like Cain, they've replaced God's choice with themselves.

God's Elect is Jesus Christ. Calvinism perverts God's choice in His Son to be a choice in sinful man. Isa 42:1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him:

I'm not. No need to deflect from your difficult position.

Exactly.

Your issue revolves around your nonsensical use of "kind". All of humanity is "one kind"..... There is no such thing as one kind of "elect" and one "kind" of the damned. Act 17:26 And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth,

Doubt it. If God keep killing people for lying to Spirit of God, this world would be much less crowded.....
