I'm beating a dead horse because you quoted Calvin? How does that follow logically?
It doesn't; it is a non-sequitur.

he taught repentance end of story.
you can twist his words all you want like you do with scripture to your own demise especially with Isaiah 53:5- the heresy taught by the word of faith healers/false teachers.
The righteousness that we receive from the Lord (Romans 5:17) is not impractical (1 John 3:7, Romans 5:19, Matthew 5:6).

You can say all you want about repentance but if the rest of your doctrine downplays it, it is only empty words.
Kind of like those who say that God wants you to be holy but that sinning is inevitable in this life. They are speaking out of both sides of their mouth.
And also, please show an example of where I have twisted scripture to my own demise? Thanks.

I didn't say this regarding you...but I have heard it coming from certain pulpits.
And what do you mean, "another one"?
Where have I ever falsely accused you?
As a matter of fact I have defended you in times past.

No its not, its knowing the truth ! and all men doesn't mean all men without exception.
No hes not saying that and you know it. Repentance accompanies Salvation. only a saved man can repent ! A lost spiritually dead person cant do anything.

Correct otherwise all the Pharisees, Sadducees, Romans Leaders, Gentiles and Jews were baptized by John and confessed their sins to him.
Mark 1
John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5 And all the country of Judea was going out to him, and all the people of Jerusalem; and they were being baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.
This is what happens when one reads their doctrine into scripture and doesn't let the context determine the meaning of words/phrases used in Scripture.
hope this helps !!!
I suppose that we will have to agree to disagree.
Don't wait too long for the Lord to save you.
He is calling you to repent today.
Repentance is unto salvation.
A person being drawn by the Holy Spirit, while not yet saved, can repent and be saved.
That is saying that all the country of Judea was going out to John to see what this thing was; not necessarily that all were being baptized of him.

it says ALL the people of Jerusalem so where are the exceptions in the passage to exclude pharisees, roman leaders, gentiles, saducees etc.. ??
It says that they went out to John, which we find all of these doing.
The sentence structure does not indicate that they were all baptized of him.

Yes it does and it is basic grammar 101.
Mark 1
John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5 And all the country of Judea was going out to him, and all the people of Jerusalem; and they were being baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.
Who are the " THEY " in red above ?

Unbiblical statement
And vice versa, they accompany one another.
False, the drawn are already saved by the Holy Spirits work in them. Thats what Paul means about the beginning of His Good work in an individual Phil 2 13
13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
