When confronted with the doctrine of election, one dogma continually asks "why doth He yet find fault," and the other doesn't.
We both have a doctrine of election, and both afford that question...just for different reasons.
Closing threads to get the last word now, are we?

No, it's the noncalvinist who cannot accept that men's evil deeds were ordained by God, but, I'm curious, how does one ask that question of your system?

It is not that we "cannot" accept such, it is that we DO NOT accept such.

Blasphemy, but wouldn't expect anything less from a hyper cal.

Your response here was correct:

The noncalvinist cannot see the difference, because at the heart of his disagreement is a carnal sense of justice. If God foreordained evil actions then He must be the cause, and is the one at fault. You will find that the argument always boils down to "why doth He yet find fault, for who hath resisted His will?"


Skan closed the thread due to this. His aligning this with both doctrines was false as it only applies to non-cal theology, and his response made no sense whatsoever, and is completley unfounded. He struggled for something to say and what he said is found wanting and is invalid. You clearly were correct and won, for that, he closed the thread.

Carry on! Congrats!!!! :thumbsup:

Says the "fella" that changes the one who made the posts name. How big of you.

We wouldn't expect anything less from a hyper non-cal. :wavey:

You mean like "Scandal"? Wouldn't expect you to notice that.

The Sidekick strikes again...

Yep. There it is!!!!! "Someone else does it so there!!!!" Unreal!!!! :laugh:

Got kicked out of the batcave again? Going to have to make a call to Batman...

Actually just wanted to join the fun in inventing clever names out of screen names like you also did on this thread. Back to the glass home you go :wavey:

I don't think it is appropriate to compare Calvinists to super-heros, super-heros are known for their extraordinary abilities, Calvinists will be the first to tell you they have no ability at all.

Perhaps they could be Deadman or the Incredible Corpse!

OK, your turn to strike back you Cal not-so-super heros!

First of all, you don't know it was Skan that closed the thread. There are other moderators. And second, the thread had reached it's limit. And third, you boys need to grow up.

Now do this-------> :1_grouphug:

Well, Robin didn't have any real abilities, he was just along for the ride and was annoying to everyone, Batman included. ;)

He WAS annoying, always felt a little sorry for him myself. He could fight. POW! BOOM!
BAM! ZLOTT! (have no idea what that last one means, but was used in the movie)

You're absolutely right. Christ gets all the glory. Every bit of it.

Well, when you have the input of folks like yourself who think they performed the effective part of Redemption on their own, it does tend to bring the glory of God down a bit in the eyes of some, but that's just an illusion caused by the veil over their eyes.

Now that the natives have gotten the restlessness out of their systems, back to my original question to Scandal:

How does one pose the following question to a noncalvinist system: How can God find fault with evil men, for who hath resisted His will?

Show me where I said this or let it be known that you have told a lie.
