Featured One or both views are irrational.

The issue with Calvinism and Arminianism that makes it 'a debate', is The sin of Adam being Imputed to all his Posterity, rendering them, "dead (Spiritually, with no Divine component or ability, at all) in trespasses and sins."

Either an individual can be lead to that understanding, by The New Birth, that they were Totally Depraved and Lost, or not.

Did God,Write, "dead", or not, is the basic issue.

Once a Spiritual believer has been Saved and Able to be Taught just how lost God Says they were, they can begin to see what God Says about the other Elements of The Doctrines of Grace.

Thousands upon thousands of Words are written about God's Eternal Covenant of Grace, for The Salvation of souls, in The Bible.

Lost souls need not bother bringing their guns to town.

God's Revelation to Mankind is Spiritually Decerned.

Without being Born Again, by the Spirit, they can not see The Kingdom of God.

 

I can't be wrong about what you said there.

No human has God's Knowledge.

 

Well... they are more Biblical and rational than your position so at least they have that going for them. Indeed, you cannot even explain your view other than telling us that God's choosing and election are not one and the same thing.

37, you come off arrogant to claim both Arminian and Calvinist theology are irrational when the men who explained these views had forgotten more about the Bible than you have ever learned. Perhaps you tell us about both views and clearly explain their irrational thought to us since you feel you are so superior to them.
I look forward to your detailed thesis paper.

 

IS NOT God's Knowledge.

Chapter 10: Of the Wisdom of God
Chapter 11: Of the Will of God, and its Sovereignty

 

Wait, are you claiming that you don't ever interpret?
Well then, I guess you can't tell us your interpretation of any passage in scripture, which means you have no rational thought on the Bible and cannot judge anyone as to whether their thoughts are rational or not.

Now, where is that thesis paper you wrote that explains in detail how Arminians and Calvinists have no rational thought to their understanding of the Bible? I will wait your explanation since in your OP you make such a claim.
Frankly, I expect you will never share any data since your entire assertion is hyperbolic ignorance.

 

I read your hyperlink. Everything you wrote in that post was based on your interpretation of what the Bible says. The question is whether your interpretation holds any water or if it is empty of any rational thought.
Since you claim all Arminians and all Calvinists have never had any rational thought to their interpretation of scripture, you must therefore prove your assertion.
I await your thesis paper on your assertion.

 

Please prove your OP assertion. We wait...

 

“Known unto God are all His works
from the beginning of the world”
(Acts 15:18).

From Eternity Past.

Then I was by Him, as One brought up with Him:
and I was daily His Delight, rejoicing always before Him, Always;
(Proverbs 8:30)

 

So you are interpreting what a text actually says without regard to context. Correct?

What does the following text actually say?
*Luke 4:7*
If you, then, will worship me, it will all be yours.”

Context will give the correct interpretation, but you irrationally demand the text to fully explain itself with nothing else needed.

I await your thesis.
