Predestination is a False Doctrine. Calvinism's false doctrine is that Ephesians 1:4 teaches individuals (foreseen before they were created) were individually chosen for salvation before creation. This is precluded by 1 Peter 2:9-10 which says we once were not a people chosen for his own...

Yet another denial of the obvious. The voice of "tasso" in Acts 13:48 does not alter the meaning that as many as accepted the Gospel's direction to eternal life believed.

There are irrelevant passive voice verbs in scripture. Your posts are irrelevant nonsense. Acts 13:48 teaches that although the Jews of verse 46 rejected the gospel, some of the Gentiles accepted the gospel.

How many times with the Calvinists deny the obvious, the answer my friends is blowing in the wind.

How many times will the Calvinists deny the obvious, the answer is blowing in the wind...

Once again you are addressing what I did not say, and ignoring what I said. The "all" refers to those who become aware Christ was crucified to provide salvation to them. They are drawn by God's lovingkindness. That view arises from the context. To claim people are drawn by Christ being...

If you think the issue is the person posting the doctrine, rather than the false doctrine, I disagree. Are we to rebuke our siblings in love, or let their posts continue hindering the ministry of Christ? Give me an example from scripture when Jesus addressed the goodness of those making...

Not sure we should not credit the deluding impact of brain washing. Ask yourself why they do not address the actual positions of their opponents, but change the subject to irrelevant side issues. And deceit is a no-no according to scripture, are we supposed to believe the poster has no idea of...

1. Calvinism is Fatalistic. Calvinism promotes fatalism and resignation. In reality, Calvinists believe everything has been predestined, you were either saved or damned from eternity for eternity, and there is nothing you can do to alter that outcome for yourself or your loved ones. 2...

Now we are supposed to change the subject from Acts 13:48 and discuss the poster's irrelevant topic? The poster brought up "passive" and now wants someone else to define it for him. Good Grief, this is the best they have to offer...

Denial of verse after verse. Unless Christ provided the means of reconciliation for the whole of Humanity, 1 John 2:2, scripture could not say Everyone believing into Him. Instead it would say everyone chosen before creation. Not how John 3:16 reads. Calvinism wrecks the gospel.

The Law of Liberty has many verses that tell us how we should treat one another: 1) Mark 9:50 2) John 5:44 3) John 13:34 4) Romans 12:10 5) Romans 12:16 6) Romans 13:8 7) Romans 14:13 8) Romans 14:19 9) Romans 15:5 10) Romans 15:7 11) Romans 16:16 12) 1 Corinthians 7:5 13) 1...

Calvinism is built on denial of dozens of scriptures, such as 1 Timothy 2:6, "ransom for all" or tasted death for all humanity or became the means of reconciliation for the whole of humanity. Every verse that proves Calvinism is bunk is claimed not to mean what it says. Darkness there and...

Folks, I say it does not matter whether the voice is passive or middle and this poster ignores my view and posts off the shelf nonsense. Again, the Gentiles "received" the direction to eternal life passively, and they responded affirmatively to that action, thus neither voice matters. Are we...
