From my perspective there is no need to argue any further, then. I think you really do understand that if everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved, that those who fail to do so have not yet been born again.

God has given a degree of sovereignty to man. If He didn't do so, then He is responsible for all of the evil that we see in the world. But the explanation that I see for evil in the world has to do with man's rebellion after satan: it had to do with a free will choice that was made to rebel...

Likewise, you can take it to the bank that if someone does what it says to do in Romans 10:13, they are one of the elect.

After being four days in the grave, Lazarus was surely dead.

It is based on an understanding of Romans 7:7-13 and is the key to not being stuck in a Romans 7:14-25 lifestyle. It is written from a perspective of victory; while Freedom 4:7-end are written from the perspective of one who is become as weak in order that he might gain the weak. @Episkopos...

Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of the Lord, Romans 10:17. We definitely need the gift of faith; for it is by faith that we have access into this grace wherein we stand. I suppose that I can just rest in the fact that God has elected me then; since I have called upon the name...

I want mercy and grace too...and I also have it because I have confessed with my mouth the Lord Jesus believing that God hath raised him from the dead. I know that Jesus did not cast me out when I came to Him, because of John 6:37b. Calvinism appears to me to teach that if a person comes to...

I am not speaking of God in a profane manner, I am speaking of your false god (the god of Calvinism) in a profane manner. And I have been very radically saved, thank you very much! I have not called the true God a monster in the slightest, I have called the monster god of Calvinism what he...

He put the tree in the garden so he could have an excuse to fry them for existing. So you are saying man has a choice in the matter of whether he is saved or not. You can't have it both ways. At least you admit that man has a choice. You are not like most Calvinists in this belief...

The Issue of Calvinism.

I believe in the God I believe in as the result of studying the Bible. The god of Calvinism does not in any way resemble the God of the Bible; he is a cosmic monster. Calvinistic teaching is not the teaching of the historic church. But when it suits you to condemn me, that is when you are...

In Romans 1, the light of creation is established. If someone obeys the light of creation, believing in God, Romans 2 establishes the light of conscience. If they obey the light of conscience, understanding that they are a sinner, Romans 3 establishes the light of Christ. Therefore every man...

Therefore, I have a choice. ;):D:cool::p:rolleyes:

The Issue of Calvinism.

You only say that because it defeats your position.

No; I do not. I believe in the Trinity and I do not see God as subdivided into roles. I see Him as three distinct Persons within the Godhead who are the same Person (God).

God is not a God who arbitrarily chooses some for salvation and condemns the rest. In Calvinism, God by default chooses certain people out to be condemned to the lake of fire. They don't have a choice in the matter; they can rightly blame God for their condemnation. In the truth of...

All liars shall have their part in the lake of fire....and I am no modalist...therefore what you say is a lie.

We will agree to disagree, though it be at your spiritual peril.

There are actually two that I can think of (because it is no fallacy)...Romans 8:29 and 1 Peter 1:2.
