Fallacious? I can't help it if you are stunted by your Calvinistic beliefs and arguments, and you SAY you are NOT Calvinist. Who are you trying to kid?

Yes, I understand. When I was little she would show me spiders and snakes, and even pick them up. Some of them are quite beautiful and unique.

@Nancy Always turn the light on in the middle of the night when you've gotta go. :D

My instinct comes from my mother. I'll examine it. :oops:

LOL, quote Calvin much???

Yes, I agree. But I also believe that upon our death, Revelation 22:11 can also mean, we are who we are. Some believe we will "always sin" while in these bodies of flesh. And THEN when we die our nature suddenly becomes holy. No, because "then comes the judgment" would not make sense. Jesus has...

Oh, okay, I was confused from your first paragraph. :)

From what I've heard, "Irresistible Grace" is just that - irresistible. You have no choice in the matter. That is why Calvinists do not believe in free-will. What you believe it seems is in free will and that God draws all men, giving them a choice. That is not the irresistible grace of Calvinism.

Yes, they are as bad as the poachers in Africa that kill a rhino just for its tusk.

I made a post on The Church Forum called As the world makes evil choices, "Be Anxious For Nothing"

I've wondered about mine, and discovered it has to do with how I was raised. So I've accepted that. Some men and even a few women can hunt animals for food, but I can't have anything to do with them. Double standard, I know! LOL And I hate any trophy hunters.

If you don't want to be taught by me, then just put me on ignore. I'm not going to stop because you are not my God, and my God already told me personally why those verses appeared in the Bible.

No. I am what I was raised to be, basically in honor of my parents. My dad took me fishing, so I can fish, and even bait a hook, but my mother didn't and would show me pretty spiders and snakes. She wasn't afraid of anything, and neither am I. I've hand fed wild raccoons who have learned to...

ROFL I laugh, because you don't know what you are talking about.

I agree with the scripture. What I'm concerned about is your interpretation. It is the version of Calvinism. "The already Justified by the Blood of Christ, and under Grace, will in due time be given Faith to access into the Grace they are already blessed with ! Until they are given Faith, they...

So are you a bonifide Calvinist?

I don't know. Why do you say that?

Wow! That's a post I wish I hadn't read! What an image in my head now! :eek::(

Wow! That looked like a bird-catcher spider.

Yes, I looked for that category too! I've never killed a spider until a few months ago. I mostly have daddy long legs, and they are all over the place. But when I saw a suspicious spider going across the floor I looked at it real close and it was a brown recluse. It took all my will to pick...
