Foreknown....found this on Monergism

Philip was a Calvinist as that is where Calvinists get the teaching, from scripture. It does not depend on Calvin or Augustine....Calvinism is a term...Moses was a Calvinist, The Old testament Prophets were Calvinists. They believed God was absolutely in control of whatsoever comes to pass.

I notice how once again, you totally ignore the help offered to you as if it was not offered!
I will repeat that verse for you again;
35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.

I will post it again, if you or the other deniers missed it;

Philip, being a good Calvinist, started at the same scripture, and supplied the biblical meaning of what the text was speaking of.
The Holy Spirit was instrumental in this.

How do Calvinists know this?

A plain reading of Isaiah 53 does not mention the name of Jesus.

That means Philip [a man] was used by the Holy Spirit to supply the truths of PSA to the Eunuch, and reveal the LORD JESUS CHRIST was the actual Identity of this Suffering servant. In fact Philip did exactly tell him, this is what I think it means, as well as the truth of believers baptism.

For some reason Silverhair and the other anti'Cals deny this clear teaching found in the text. They do this over and over. showing a spirit of rebellion and unbelief.

You have lost your mind Z. Philip could not be a calvinist as 1] it had not been invented yet. Had to wait for augustine for that and 2] Philip just used the word of God as written. No additions or twisting of the text.

He was biblical not anti-biblical as you seem to think he was.

I have to disagree with you on Omniscience. Either God knows all or He does not.

God can choose to overlook somethings such as our sin {Act_17:30} but He still knows of our sin and also of our choice to trust in or reject Him.
He does not! I will remember no more forever. The false doctrine is based on a poor translation. When the text just says all, some translations render it all things. This points away from what was contextually in view, and to what is no where found contextually, thus is a translation out of context. When you see "all things" think "all these things" then discern the scope from the context.

This is the third time, you cannot interact with what I posted. Either you cannot understand what I post to you, or you see what I am saying and realizing you have no answer, so you repeat your error. Sorry, but I doubt you are sincere as time after time, truth is presented to you and you never comment on the truth, just repeat your error.
I will post it once again;

Thankfully: (Eph 2:8 KJV) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God:

I will not have to pass an exam on my understanding of doctrine!
