Featured Is salvation available?

Did anyone say or suggest seeing miracles is the power of God unto salvation? Nope - all Calvinism has is the change the topic ploy.

 

Another non-answer, another dodge. This is all Calvinism can do to avoid scriptural truth

 

1) God is sovereign in that God causes or allows whatsoever comes to pass. God has not ordained whatsoever comes to pass.
2) Calvinism teaches everyone who is reached (is exposed to the message) does not have the opportunity to believe, because of their "total spiritual inability." Here we have a denial of Calvinism claimed to be Calvinism.
3) According to Calvinism those with the inability to understand and respond to the gospel are responsible for rejecting it. Go figure.
4) Because Calvinism claims the lost have no ability to choose righteousness, but are guilty because of God's predestined choices, demonstrates the absurdity of Calvinism.

 

More idiotic absurdity, nullifying scripture because of another verse's bogus interpretation.

 

One falsehood after another, one subject change after another...

 

More change the subject to the poster and dodge the subject. This is all these folks have, falsehoods piled on absurdity.

 

Calvinism = You were saved or damned from all eternity for all eternity and there is nothing you can do to alter that outcome of your life or for the lives of your loved ones. The gospel is good news for some and bad news for the rest..

Biblical Doctrine = Everyone believing in Christ (as decided by God crediting their faith as righteousness) will not perish but have everlasting life. Since if people had seen Christ's miracles, they would have repented, God has not predetermined who can respond to the gospel message.

The election of Ephesians 1:4 was corporate, not individual, because those chosen to be God's people, existed as not a people before they were a people. Thus 1 Peter 2:9-10 precludes an individual election for salvation before creation. Thus, we are chosen for salvation individually during our lifetime through faith in the truth. 2 Thessalonians 2:13. Therefore salvation is available to the lost and God has not precluded the opportunity.

Two very different gospels..

 

1) Does the bible say the gospel is foolishness to them that perish? Nope. It is foolishness to those who (1) have heard the gospel message, and (2) have rejected that message. This verse does not say none of the lost can hear and accept the gospel, the fictional bogus interpretation of Calvinism.

2) John 6:65 does not say God does not allow people to choose life, only that God does disallow some (like Judas) for His purpose.

3) To be "of God" refers to being open to God's word, but those "not of God" are not open to God's word. For example in Matthew 13, the first soil was not "of God" but the second, third and fourth soils were "of God." However, after hearing, the second and third soils did not deeply or fully embrace the gospel.

4) To be "of My Sheep" refers to being open to God's word, and those not of My sheep are not open to God's word.

5) "My sheep" are those God has placed into Christ, thus they belong to Christ, and Christ "knows" them. Different group than those "of My sheep."

6) Acts 13:48 indicates those that accepted the gospel direction to eternal life believed. No support for Calvinism in the verse.

Yes, the bible teaches over and over a very different gospel than the one proclaiming futility.

 

I did not insult anyone, I insulted the false doctrine of Calvinism.
OTOH, you tell me to repent, a straight-up attack on my character, rather than addressing the position.

 

I hope you stop changing the subject to my behavior, and realize Calvinism is false doctrine.

If people would have repented had they seen Christ's miracles, they were not foreordained to reject the gospel. Thus Calvinism is false doctrine.

 

Where you see "you are a ...." know that a forum rule violation is in evidence.

For example, you are a hypocrite, you are a coward, you are a false teacher or you are daft.
