What in the world does that even mean and how does that explain away 2 Thessalonians 2:10 and Jonah 3:10 refuting Calvinism? I don’t think that excuse is going to work come Judgment Day. You act like God does not have a specific acceptable particular meaning that He desires people to believe...

First, Romans 8 does not say that the natural man cannot receive the things of God. That would be 1 Corinthians 2:14. 1 Corinthians 2:14 says: “But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are...

You are not the first person to make the claim that they seen Calvinism in the Bible without knowing about such a name. But that does not mean that such a belief is true or good. Two people can both have the same wrong interpretation of Scripture but that does not make them correct because...

In regards to the parable of the building, and it's materials in 1 Corinthians 3: Paul says before the parable, "you are God's building." So we are the materials that make up the building. Many believers today have an erroneous idea of what represents the gold, silver, precious stones, wood...

Glad we are agreed on this point. I don’t think that is an excuse that will work with God. Christians cannot ignore doctrine as taught in the Bible. Certain doctrines or beliefs are salvific. For example: Believing in the bodily resurrection is a salvation issue as per 1 Corinthians 15...

Sorry. I disagree. I respectively must say: First, you are merely reading God's Word out of context. As I have demonstrated previously in this thread, in my many discussions with Calvinists over the years, no Calvinist has yet to properly explain 2 Thessalonians 2:10, and Jonah 3:10 using the...

Theology does form your standard of morality. If you believe in the god of Calvinism who forces some to be saved and others to not be saved, it will affect your behavior in thinking the same way or to be more cold and calloused towards others. Some Calvinists in the past claim they had to live...

Puritans (Calvinists) are known for executing witches in history (i.e. the Salem witch trials). While witchcraft and witches are really bad, and no believer should condone witchcraft, the New Testament does not teach we are to kill our enemies, but we are love our enemies. We should condemn...

John Calvin sounds about as cold as the god of Calvinism. In other words, don’t follow men but follow Jesus and His Word alone. You don’t need a man to understand the Bible. You simply need the Anointing or the understanding from the Holy Spirit by asking God.

As for John Calvin: Well, if true according to history, John Calvin appeared to be a very scary man to be around if you disagreed with him theologically. John Calvin’s interpretation of the Bible justified the murder of his theological opponents. He himself did not cut off any heads or light...

Jeremiah 29:13 does not sound like Calvinism. It says, “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.” (Jeremiah 29:13).

Free Will in the Bible: #1. Joshua 24:15 KJV - "Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve" #2. Matthew 11:28 KJV - "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." #3. John 7:17 KJV - "If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the...

I don't believe Calvinism is 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 for you and your family and when you ask him why he is not saving you and your family, he says.... “No reason, I just do not want to save...

All Scripture is profitable for doctrine, and instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16). So there are lessons or truths to be learned in Jonah 3:10. One truth from Jonah 3:10 that you and every other Calvinist ignores is that God does not force salvation upon people. This is what is...

Your dodging the point I made. In 2 Thessalonians 2:10: Those who perish are perishing because they received not the love of the truth that they MIGHT be saved. There is no MIGHT be saved in Calvinism. In the bizarro world of Calvinism: Those who perish are not to blame in the sense that they...

The fullest version of the first greatest commandment is found in what is considered one of the least (i.e. humblest) of the gospels (Which is Mark). Mark 12:29-30 says, “The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God...

You're most welcome. I hope it was helpful. God's grace and peace shine upon you and your family.

Here is another part of the Bible that Calvinists have to change or ignore. Jonah tells the Ninevites that the city of Nineveh shall be overthrown. Jonah 3:4 “And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.” We...

While there are many verses in the Bible that refute Calvinism, one of my top favorites is 2 Thessalonians 2:10. “And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.” (2 Thessalonians 2:10). First...

The Provisional Atonement would answer this. 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...
