    When God says it, it does make it so!

    Seeking nothing but each other’s harm, these kings will plot against each other at the conference table, attempting to deceive each other. But it will make no difference, for the end will come at the appointed time. “The king of the north will then return home with great riches. On the way he will set himself against the people of the holy covenant, doing much damage before continuing his journey. “Then at the appointed time he will once again invade the south, but this time the result will be different.
    (Daniel 11:27-29)

    You are denying God's word or attempting to pigeonhole it by claiming it's only for a very specific situation.
    It's time you own up to the fact that God is clear about His full Sovereignty. God does not teach what you are teaching. Let that big red flag wave in your face and acknowledge it.

    No, not even then.

    God is not a magician nor is He irrational. God speaks the truth because its the truth, not the other way around.

    As I have already told you, without ANY response from you whatsoever, that there are several things that God has predestined to occur, especially when the events have to do with the nation of Israel but it is an error to expand this to every event that has or will ever occur.

    I am doing neither! It is the text itself that "pigeonholes" it to a specific situation, not me. The ONLY reason you have to even suggest that it applies to every single event that happens is YOUR DOCTRINE which you are reading into the text.

    It is time that you stop saying nonsensical things that aren't supported by either scripture or plain reason.

    Saying it doesn't make it so!

    That's me trying to get you to stop making bald unsupported claims and to start making actual arguments, by the way. I mean, just in case it was flying a mile over your head or something.

    If you can refute a syllable of my doctrine, I'd hear it (well, read it) gladly!

    It won't happen. I've seen a thousand Calvinists that act the way you do. You won't even try to understand my doctrine never mind refute it. You'll resort to repeating your same old one liners and the same already refuted points and then, when you get tired of doing that, you'll get all angry and start whining about how mean I am or some such thing.

    Questions? Are all truths subordinate to God? Or is God subordinate to all truths? Or both? Or neither?
