    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    Why do you lie so much? Fantastic stuff. Not slanderous misreporting at all. You're a gentleman and a scholar.

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    And you "real truth" folks have no intentions of following forum rules (link): Do not state or imply that another member or group of members who have identified themselves as Christian are not Christians. If there is an issue where a member seems to have circumvented the basic tenants of the...

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    A wonderful, charismatic performance of mostly complete lies and a few half-truths with absolutely -ZERO- evidence for the claims. Bravo!!! LifelongSinner—You just added one more for the recording angels' books.

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    Except that perversity isn't heresy. You are awfully triumphalist for someone who claims to be unregenerate. Now that is a brilliant observation.

    Christianity boils down to believing in the end, there's no other way around it

    Religious or not, many things that are "known" are eventually found to have only been beliefs. Welcome to the forum!

    He can't help it. He knows not what he does.

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    The pot calling the kettle black. lol From the world church headquarters in Silver Springs, Maryland: What Adventists Believe About the Experience of Salvation - Adventist.org How do we accept salvation? Jesus freely offers each of us the gift of total redemption from sin. Our part in...

    Well, we can't all pack the gear to be in the elite WCF Force. :(

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    Could you build that straw man a little bigger? I can't quite make it out. Whoa, there it is!!! I couldn't see it behind that great big cathedral full of back-patting, lifelong, maybe elect (or maybe not), confessed 'wicked folk who don't understand (Daniel 12:10) and therefore can't teach'...

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    Good Ol' Boy Club, is it? Do you think the book of Hebrews was written to Christians? Do you think the Gospel is not in the book of Hebrews? Do you think that forgiveness is all that the atonement consists of? Sin makes a mess and that mess has to be cleaned up. The sins of the finally...

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    Yes, Jesus's death was not complete. See how stupid that sounds? Didn't He die completely? Perhaps you're talking about His cry: "It Is finished." So something was definitely finished. We know that, because God's word has creative power built right into itself, so it had to happen. Do you...

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    How utterly ridiculous. All redemption is of full and free GRACE. I can't accept your "fact" because no matter how well-polished your system of sophistry is, someone will come along and quote the WCF as proof of their Calvinist beliefs. Are you the one who claims that the only possible options...

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    Whether they know it or not, what they want to be proclaimed is the Synod of Dort and WCF.

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    It goes without saying, doubtless. Not my first rodeo. I'm sure I'm not alone. The fragmentation and frequent tenacious fanaticism of Calvinism strangely fascinate me.

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    I beat you to it. lol @Lifelong_sinner should be arriving any minute now. Then we can see Daniel 12:10 turned on its head.

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    It is his style to ask a question somewhat rhetorically; then answer it himself.

    What is so wrong with Calvinism ?

    You just did. Who is "we?" You are all different. Many, many Calvinists identify quite exclusively as Calvinist. When you talk to a Calvinist, you never know who you're talking to. The god who fashions some of his creatures for the intended purpose of harassing his elect and then of being...

    For those who think Christ is not God.

    No. They only have to recognize the concept of paradox. They don't even have to know the word "paradox," in fact. Scripture quite often appears to contradict itself. The way most people solve this dilemma is to come down on one side and simply ignore or spiritualize away the other side. It's as...

    A Discussion About Truth

    That's awfully deep. I don't know if I'm up to invoking concepts. I'm just a guy sitting on my couch - lol. Quite likely a lot more often than would be desirable Fair enough

    A Discussion About Truth

    BTW, Here is some Scripture regarding Lucifer and his fall: Have any others than the human family sinned? "God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment." 2 Peter 2:4. What is the name of him who led...
