So, you offer sacrifices at the temple? You stone people? You never trim your sideburns or beard?

What is your point? It was false teaching! N"then, why do you try to test God by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear? 11 No! We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.” It could not be...

BTW, if you would use the reply feature, I would not have to scroll through everything to find your replies. Often I'm on my phone and only checking notifications.

If you really think about it, all we have to describe God is figurative language. Our brains aren't that big, and I don't care if you are an Einstein, you will never grasp a tenth of what there is to understand about an infinite being. So we have to go by what he tells us about himself. If he...

I'm very disappointed that you can't be honest about the implications of your doctrine, but I get it. You would rather ignore the truth and pretend the contradictions don't exist.

? Why the quote with no answer?

I'm quite up to it. And if you can't see your own condescending tone, you are willingly blind.

I don't know why any Christian would mess with that new age garbage. I've talked to people into it and they are so decieved. There seems to be lot of extreme vegans into extreme new age garbage. Messed up world we live in.

The Bible says the opposite. Read Galatians.

Notice how you selectively choose words to deny the full implications of Calvinism. "What God has designed comes to pass exactly as he purposed it." Sure it does! Amen! God can do what he wants, no arminian disagrees. But, that's not what your theology says. It doesn't stop there, but says God...

More flaming and bashing, as per usual.

Oh, thank you, oh great one, I bow before your superior wisdom! Good Grief.

Your problem here is the normal one, not understanding that when non-Calvinists disagree with Calvinism, they are not arguing against God; they are arguing against the Calvinistic understanding of God. The two are very different. People’s eternal destinies are not the subject of God’s...

You just did. He does this for Moses because Moses found favor in his sight, not arbitrarily.

I'm not doing what the objector did, that's just your silly accusation. The objector appears in Romans 3 first. " Someone might argue, “If my falsehood enhances God’s truthfulness and so increases his glory,why am I still condemned as a sinner?” 8 Why not say—as some slanderously claim that we...

Seeing as how the objector was obviously lost and rebelling against God, how do you figure that? Overall context: God shows mercy and judgment as he thinks proper, and none have a right to find fault with his proceedings, correct, however: The question is what it is saying about how God shows...

Ah, but the objector was dead wrong and most do resist his will, as Paul confirmed when he says the objector talked back to God. We don't live in a world where God's will is always done. If we did, we would already be in heaven.

Quoting the whole thing doesn't change a thing when it means the same thing. It's an obvious contradiction wrapped up in fancy words.

Pretty sure that's a reference to people who use Paul's writings to teach Gnosticism, which Calvinism is in many regards.
