Believe it or not, most Calvinists, including this one, firmly believe every word of that. The issue is that without the DRAW of God, natural man (that is most people) have no real interest in calling on Jesus as Lord (their Creator God, in charge) and Savior (the one responsible for saving...

I really have to ask ... do you have a comprehension problem? I mean how can someone come in an make claims of theological superiority because of their PhD and have so much difficulty following a simple conversation that they need to jump in and offer completely inappropriate correction...

Nice strawman. Now where in all there did Jesus say "I died for every individual without exception" or "I died for the elect from every nation, tribe and tongue"? Nowhere, so the Limited vs Unlimited Atonement still stands and you are guilty of making false accusations against me. It was...

It was a joke related to flipping a coin. I don't know the specific details of HOW, but I remember reading that the High Priest's breastplate was somehow used to ask God to make a decision by a process like flipping a coin or drawing straws. So rather than flip a coin, I was (humorously)...

Horay! The whole world is sinless. Bring on Universalism and let me get my sharpie. (I think you have left something out.)

Did God punish Jesus for the sins of Adolph Hitler? Assuming Adfolph Hitler clung to his belief in the occult and his rejection of Christ right up to his death, will God punish Adollph Hitler in Hell for his sins? So God already punished Jesus for the sins of Adolph Hitler in AD 33 and God will...

GOOD NEWS! Only God can settle that one for sure because only Jesus can decide whose sins he was carrying. Both views have "issues" from a human logic perspective. Limited Atonement calls into question "God loves all" and Unlimited Atonement has God saving none but merely "offering salvation"...

Yes, please post all of your personal information so we can verify your identity and take out Credit Cards in your name. (see the problem?) This part of the exchange has just gotten silly. Feel free to respond with the last word.

That was not atpollard. o_O

Now that is just plain nonsense. I could do a word search for someone named Pollard and claim to be them and offer a story about my online name ... how would your “historical research” help you verify my real identity? How will my learning the rigors of “historical research” allow me to prove...

If by OSAS you mean the “say a prayer and go back to sinning” tripe that gets offered on Christian TV, then I agree. Meeting God is a life transforming experience ... if you have no change, then you ain’t met God.

Try responding to the serious posts directed to you rather than the humor directed to another. However, your response speaks volumes about you and I simply don’t care what you have to say any longer. The Gospel of John was written by John the son of Zebedee, as stated by Polycrates, Irenaeus...

It is utter nonsense to claim that TULIP (with a P for Perseverance of the Saints) destroys assurance of salvation.

Except I never claimed that men have no free will, so it is actually an irrelevant point. Try reading the first few posts and see what I actually did write.

Then why are you wasting your time (and mine) in a debate section of a discussion forum if you have no intention of either debating or discussing anything?

Stating facts not in evidence. There are no “honest seekers”. [Romans 3:9-11] 9 What then? Are we better than they? Not at all; for we have already charged that both Jews and Greeks are all under sin; 10 as it is written, "THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NOT EVEN ONE; 11 THERE IS NONE WHO...

No. If you had followed that conversation, the individual to whom the comment was addressed had several times offered an opinion without support (the opinion that Calvinism is wrong) to requests to support their opinion. If someone is not willing to do more in a discussion than state “You are...

What a coincidence! I have a full copy of MY Gospel and all of my Letters to the Church available online, too. Is that enough to prove that I am the Apostle John? :) I actually believe you. It is just that identities really cannot be accurately verified online, so claims of credentials have...

Wow, I mean a "like" doesn't really do justice to that. Bravissimo!

Be a little skeptical of what anyone tells you that someone else teaches/believes. Check out John Wesley's position for yourself rather than trusting the OPINION of the Nazarene church (or the Methodist church that Wesley founded, or even what I post). It is too easy to get bad second hand...
