@KenH I am curious why you say "totally absolutely sovereign" does that make God more sovereign or do you think someone saying God is sovereign means He is not a sovereign as your "totally absolutely sovereign" makes Him?

But Ken you continue to deny the obvious. If man has no free will then all things are determined by your version of God. And since he determines that some will not repent and believe why does he judge them as they are doing just what he determined that they would do. Your religion does present...

If man does not have the ability to repent and believe then why are they judged for not repenting and believing? Joh 3:18 "He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

@Brightfame52 God created us TO SEEK HIM and FIND HIM; Act_17:26-31 Act 17:26 and He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation, Act 17:27 that they would seek God, if...

Man can freely trust in God and that is why he will be judged for rejecting Him. If man could not do so then God denies Himself. What does Paul tell us? Rom 3:21 But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, Rom 3:22...

You have out done yourself BF. This is the worst abuse of scripture that I have seen from you in a long time. You continue to cherry pick out of context verses in the vain attempt to support your false religions view.

We are raised up with Christ after we have believed in Him not before. So if we are dead like a corpse, as calvinists claim, then we could not sin or trust in Christ. So calvinists did create a new doctrine. You must be saved before you can believe. Calvinists have it backwards. As we see in...

It does not say what the calvinist want it to say BF. What it tells us is that salvation is the gift of God which we receive through faith. And we further see that faith is not a work.

Then why do calvinists keep saying that man cannot trust in Christ because they are dead like a corpse?

Not what Eph 2:8-9 tells us BF. Care to try again?

So I see that many of the calvinist view do not even understand the truth of Epn 2:8-9.

If you do not know then why do you follow it BF? Since you claim it is the truth what does it mean to you?

TULIP/DoG is calvinist not biblical. You have been lead down the garden path BF. You are trusting in a view that has it basis in pagan thought. I trust God's gospel of grace not your calvinism.

Problem is that you do not even know what free will means. You just follow the party line.

Bears out what? That man has a free will then you are right. If you say man has no free will then you are just supporting a calvinst view that has no support in scripture. But as I said your deterministic view then makes God responsible for all the sin and evil we see in the world. And since...

Yes the secret things belong to God but the means of salvation is not a secret is it Ken. Rom 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. Eph 1:13 In Him, you also, after listening to the...

That is you reading into the text something that is not there. Adam brought sin and death into the world. And if you would actually believe what God said in Gen 3:17-19 then you would see that it is death that was passed ion not sin. We are judged for our own sins. You still want babies that...

Those that choose to sin just as Adam chose to sin are then sinners, we are not sinners because Adam sinned. Just as we are not saved just because Christ covered our sins at the cross, we have to freely trust in Him to be saved.

Free will does not mean you can stop sinning as we see even with Paul Rom 7:18-20. Free will means we have the ability to choose. But look at the other side, if we have no free will then all the sins that we commit must have been determined for us to commit so by your comment @Marooncat79 you...

That is just your calvinism speaking Ken. What you have just posted is not biblical, as you have put the cart before the horse so to speak.
