Why I am not a Calvinist

The ALL in 2 Peter 3:9 is the same ALL in John 6:37. This is not hard to understand.

 

Pioneer,

Yes, there is a vast difference between some Arminian/Calvinistic theology and Biblical theology. These men were not paragons of all truth;in fact they were men who came out of darkness and saw some semblance of light.

Respectfully,

Ray:

First, I don't know of any modern Arminians or Calvinists who claim to follow either men. Both camps claim to follow Scripture.

Therefore, both camps cannot be right, as both camps believe differently. So instead of saying "there is a vast difference between some Arminian/Calvinistic theology and Biblical theology", one should say "one of the systems is vastly different from Biblical theology".

The answer to that, of course, is that Arminianism is different.

 

Chris,

I enjoyed A Farewell to Calvinism very much. Thanks.

 

Brothers and Sisters, Matthew 24:22 certainly mentions the elect. "And except those days be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened." In Christ, Jan
