Some Basic Info On John Calvin

Your challange is worthless. If someone bothered to take the time, you would call their arguments lies. The bottom line is, you are promoting as a shining example of church history a murderer and liar.

 

wow, don't think about the Apostle paul liked that!
He already had an "inferiority complex" as viewing himself as the 'least among the Apostles!"

 

If you consider persecution and murder trifling, then you need more help than I can offer.

 

I have no intention of comparing the likes of John Calvin to the Apostle Paul. The thought never crossed my mind.

 

Jesus was a glutton and a wine bibber, you know.

 

Basic facts regarding Calvin and true Baptists: Calvin was a universal, state-church, pedobaptist. True Baptists were against such things before Calvin, during Calvin and after Calvin.

Now what?

Have we checked out our Baptist heritage lately? It is not through Calvin. We seem mired in universal ecumenism.

"Come out from among them says the Lord, touch not the unclean thing."

Even so, come Lord Jesus.

Bro. James

 

Supposing by "glutton" you mean:

A person with an inordinate capacity to receive or withstand something"

Don't think you can substantiate the second charge .

 

Well, I really detest "calvinism", but not the Calvinists. If you're not KJVO, then hit the road.........and if you a dispy, go fly a kite.....other than that, I have no problem with these discussions...... :smilewinkgrin: :wavey: :love2:


BTW, I am NOT KJVO(I once was, but not now)....I have mellowed to KJVOE......KJV or else......LOL.....

 

Paul was a man, Calvin was a monster, and your discerment is zero.

 

Look at your own fruit. Your posts do not equate to facts, only ill informed opinions. Your posts are in fact bold faced lies.

 

The comparisons betwixt Apostle Paul and John Calvin:

1) Both were males
2) Both slept
3) Both ate
4) Both used the bathroom
5) Both breathed air
6) Both drank water
7) Both wore clothes
8) Both wrote...but not in the same ballpark
9) Both walked
10)Both spoke with people
11)Both had someone put to death
12)Both died
13)Both went "up"....well, on second thought..........


Yeah, I see a lot of similairities betwixt them. But to put John Calvin's name even in the same paragraph with Apostle Paul is mind-boggling......

 

Jesus was and is sinless. Baptist preachers are in general gluttons.

 

An excellent post, and for that matter, a kind assesment of the idiot.

 

Here's a portion from a 1980's Mel McDaniel song:

Thought I was a "he-man", do it just for me man,
Knew just what to do.
Thought I was a hero, she rated me a zero,
Said honey-child you ain't true.

 

Mind boggling indeed. Last time I checked heaven and hell have very little in common.

 

It is you who is the liar, and your fruit stinks. You idolize a murderer, and you try to cover up the truth.

Other quotes of Calvin:

Calvin said in Defense of the Orthodox Faith in the Sacred Trinity, "do not fail to rid the country of those scoundrels, who stir up the people to revolt against us. Such monsters should be exterminated, as I have exterminated Michael Servetus the Spaniard."

"Whoever shall now contend that it is unjust to put heretics and blasphemers to death will knowingly and willingly incur their very guilt," said by Calvin.

Calvin said, "there are others who assail me harshly as a master in cruelty and atrocity, for attacking...one who perished by my hands."

Calvin was incensed, “We must stamp out this burst of hell-fire before it spreads over the surface of the earth.... Freedom of conscience is a doctrine of the devil.... Better to have a tyrant, however cruel, than permit everyone to do what he pleases.”
