I didn't even realize you were involved, I just saw endless fights about the subject by this-and-that user, and I remembered I really just wanted to talk about the topic with people who are acquainted with it, not argue about it with people who didn't believe in it (I already know the arguments...

Guys, I said I didn't want another thread where there were arguments about Monergism, that I just wanted to speak about it with people who were acquainted with it and be edified.

I already know the other side. I don't need convincing about it.

No, I'm interested in Calvinism because I think it has benefit to it.

I find it hard to believe, given how much I have argued against Monergism, anyone would have to ask me that.

Why would I want to debate it when I already know the other side? I want to learn about the Monergistic side.

Ecumenism is not the topic.

Are you Monergist?

As noted, I'm not interested in quarreling about the topic.

I've been saying I wanted to discuss with Monergists--and in the reply, I said I didn't want to argue, and, since you're not a Monergist, and your reply indicates you want to disagree (argue) about the topic, I'm really not interested.

You're not a Monergist, are you?

I've heard that, in some cases (eg, potatoes), farmers refuse to eat "organic" foods they grow, because they MUST use certain substances on them--but even in cases where they don't "have to", they are allowed to use synthetic substances--so they grow three crops, so they can eat something...

I have noticed after I get out my skin is itchy. Before, I used a sauna often, but it broke. (It was $750, but this one works just as good at $200.) I never got itchy after using the sauna before. However, once, after eating organic strawberries, I got itchy. I know it is the pesticides. In the...

I don't want to debate with dissenters, I would like to discuss with Monergists so I can be edified. I can further explain later but now I'm in a mini sauna lol

Before, I thought, "If I love other people, I will tell them about Jesus"; now, I know that I cannot love other people, only Jesus can create love for people in me, and I should aim to abide in Him by believing His Good News, then He will glorify Himself, and that will draw others into...

What I really would like to think about is how Christ will lose none, and, related to that, no one can take me out of God's Hand. Before He saved me, He knew me, and sought me, and, now, going forward, He will not lose me--before, during, and after, it's all God Who saves. Amos 3:3 Do two walk...

That's one thing I noticed about Monergism : the fruit it yields is the right kind. Recently, considering how He chose me, not me Him, I had so much love for a sibling in Christ instead of struggling with the knowledge that I had an absence of love and a presence of hatred for this person...

Yeah, I know the arguments against Monergism, and I agree they make sense, but I don't find focusing on them to be helpful, so I was hoping to talk with a Monergist.

Well, I wanted to discuss with some people who were acquainted with "Monergism"--not that I agree with all of "Calvinism", or all of the "doctrines of grace", but my hope was/is that in discussing the topic I would/will be edified by some of those ideas (even if I didn't accept all of them...

It seemed you wanted to argue against the doctrines of grace--you were saying why you disagreed with them, it seemed. Was I mistaken in how I read what you said?
