John 3:16 says, whosoever believeth in him. But the Calvinist says that whosoever is in reference to the Elect. That is not what John 3:16 says. Whosoever is referring to anyone. Just look up the definition for whosoever. Source: King James Bible Dictionary - Reference List - Whosoever We...

So if world means Gentiles, then we can read John 3:16 as referring to only the Gentiles then, too. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16). Lets see how that reads. For God so...

First, there is no phrase in the Bible that says that the WHOLE WORLD is in reference to the Gentiles only. The WHOLE WORLD would include both the Jews and Gentiles or it would be talking about our planet. So the Calvinistic explain away on 1 John 2:2 is not really reading it in a way that...

I agree, and gifts are usually received by a person, and they not enforced upon another. For people can refuse a gift.

Your a non-Calvinist who believes in the 5 points of Calvinism. Right. So how is that not a contradiction? I am sure the King James translators know more about the Greek than we do. Besides, even with this English rendering it does not help you. In Calvinism there is no such thing as a...

No. I am telling you that Paul is saying that in Ephesians 2 that they (the believers) were once dead in trespasses and sins in their old life of sin before they accepted Jesus and His grace. This proves conditional salvation and not election. For if God elected them from the foundation of...

Well said. Thank you for explaining it. I would partially agree with this interpretation. I believe that God's wrath abides on those who do not believe and that they are at at war with God. But this would only be in part that they would be at war and abiding on God's wrath. Why? Well, I...

Romans 8:6-9 6 “For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. 9 But ye are not in the...

This makes absolutely no sense. You say you are not a Calvinist and yet you believe in the 5 points of Calvinism? Just believing in the five points of Calvinism makes you a Calvinist even if you reject the name Calvinism. For the theology was invented by John Calvin. I don't believe you are...

Their debates are controlled and they are not going to stream a debate where they lost (if they have not displayed one). They also may not debate regular believers (Which means that they are afraid of their beliefs not standing up to scrutiny by all believers). Give me the best part of their...

There is a difference between God providing a way of escape (Which is what the Provisional Atonement is) vs. people wanting to play ball on God's terms in regards to having the proper faith so as to be saved by God. 1 Timothy 4:10 is the Savior of all men especially to those who believe. This...

I understand Calvinism just fine. In fact, it's odd because this is a common catch phrase used by Calvinists all the time. I know. I have had others tell me this before. They usually say “you don't know Calvinism” (See Google search here about it) when in reality we do understand the false...

Again, the only people group that the Lord Jesus did not die for are those who worship the beast in the future (Revelation 13:8, and Revelation 17:8). Everybody else had their sins paid for on a PROVISIONAL basis and is only personally applied to their lives if they accept the free love gift...

Limited Atonement is falsely teaching that God did not die for the sins of the whole world. Meaning, if a person rejects Jesus in this life and dies (God did not die for their sins). This is what Limited Atonement is falsely teaching. We learn in Peter that the Lord had bought even false...

Post #883 has some great verses that refutes Limited Atonement. 1 John 2:2 is one of my favorites that refutes Limited Atonement. “And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.” (1 John 2:2). John is saying that he is not only the...

The verses speak for themselves and do not allow for Calvinism to exist. 2 Thessalonians 2:10 says that the reason why those who perish are perishing is because THEY RECEIVED NOT THE LOVE OF THE TRUTH THAT THEY MIGHT BE SAVED. There is no MIGHT be saved in Calvinism. They are also perishing...

Sure Calvinism is unbiblical big time. 2 Thessalonians 2:10 and Jonah 3:10 are two big ones that Calvinists love to ignore or change. I believe Calvinism is not in line with God's goodness or character and or fair justice. It would be like a coast guard saving everyone on a lifeboat except...

I reject Calvinism for a number of good reasons. #1. Its unbiblical big time. #2. It's immoral big time. #3. It's not the historic teaching (St. Augustine was the first to bring in a more primitive concept of it). #4. 5 point Calvinism was created by John Calvin who had others murdered for...

Do you believe GOD wants us to justify sin and evil? Think about the endless atrocities a believer could commit in His name thinking that way. A believer could falsely think they could mow down a crowd with a submachine gun all while they believe they are saved by having a belief alone in...

Provisional Atonement (not "Limited Atonement"). (A 100% Work of God alone that can only be applied personally to an individual's life via by being saved by God's grace and Sanctification). This is Jesus paying the price for the sins of the entire world so as to offer mankind the free gift of...
