Featured ¶John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.

2 thes And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

 

Previenient Grace as taught is in agreement with the T in Tulip as a ' partial regeneration ' or a ' quickening ' . A means of bringing a person out of ' deadness ' so that they may be ' able ' to respond or refuse the grace . This is not biblical.

 

God graciously sent His Son , The Holy Spirit is sent to convict the World of sin , righteousness and Judgement , We have the Bible ,creation , conscience , Christians, The Gospel..ect .

 

I'm talking about God giving all that leaves people without excuse to believe. There is no need for extra pre grace . My example from acts 2 is simply to say after the Day of pentacost the Holy Spirit is Given . The Holy Spirit convicts the World of Sin ect . My point is that previenient and irresistible Grace as explained by the systems are unbiblical .

 

Ahh the boogeyman Pelagianism which started this whole mess of Augustines philosophy aka calvernism in the first place . Every Calvernists go to scare tactic ,followed closely by ' your a universalist ' . Calvernists are so paralysed of theses dangers they forget to check there own system for errors . No I do not believe we have in ourselves in any sense to make it to heaven .Nor do I believe that God does a percentage and we do our percentage for salvation . God has done all for us to be saved and does all to save . Including the offer of salvation where God is pleased to save all those who believe.

 

lol could you explain why I'm teaching heresy from what I've said . And I'm not concerned about Luther who never really let go of Catholicism and like Calvin followed the heretical Augustine.

 

Which viewpoint. According to Calvinists everyone else is a semipalagien , universalist will worshipper.

 

Although I am very familiar with Both heresies that Plage and Augus taught I however believe the bible that says that we are sinful , we cannot birth ourselves , we cannot do good to gain eternal life ( there's none that does good in this sense , no not one ) we are lost , separated due to the fall . I don't believe in the gnostic / stoic view on total inability. We did not lose the ability to positively respond to God . We can believe the Gospel . Otherwise its pretty foolish that God would say over and over to believe and obey the Gospel if we cannot .
