Now I know for sure you have gone off the rails with your philosophy.

So what is your point ZA. That I am not a good calvinist. I could have told you that as I trust the bible not a religion that has a questionable foundation. Perhaps you can give a logical answer to this question ZA? If God has unchangeably determined who will and won’t be saved, then why...

So correct me ZA what does foreknow mean? Now I want you to be sure you make it nice and clear so I have no doubt as to what you think it means. Ya I am sure they used their bibles ZA. They had to find verses that they thought support their calvinism. Dumb questions that you think are gotcha...

Actually ZA I do not really care if I am found in all of your heavily slanted reasons. You have yet to provide any response to the historical fact that your religion is based on pagan philosophy, in fact I have not seen any calvinist on this or other boards do that other than to say "that's...

When you set out to write a document that supports the calvinist view that would require that you be a calvinist ZA. Well since you said it then yes determinism is determinism no matter who holds to it. If one believes that their version of God determines all things how does that change what...

It is something that we picked up form all the calvinists on this board. But you still did not answer the question did you? Under your calvinist divine determinism all those women teachers/preachers must have been put there by God or how could they have gotten there? Did they do something that...

Ya I am quite sure they put that in large bold letters on the title page. They naturally bring their bias into what they wrote. Are you so naive as to think they would not? They wrote what they thought supported their particular view of calvinism. You mean am I seeking to deny calvinist...

No it is a great question that you do not have a good answer for.

Of course they agree with the WCF/LBCF they are all calvinists. But you asked where was determinism buy some Christian's and I showed you where and you deflect. I am shocked.

I know you come from the calvinist perspective and what surprises me is for someone that thinks God has determined all things then why do you think He did not determine women to preach?

What they, as all those that wrote confessions, did was search for scripture that they thought supported their view. They start from a biased position so for those that support that view, great, but for those that oppose that view, not so. You like the LLBCF/WCF but I see that it does not...

LBCF/WCF God from all eternity, did, by the most wise and holy counsel of His own will, freely, and unchangeably ordain whatsoever comes to pass (Institutes III.16.8): we hold that God is the disposer and ruler of all things, that from the remotest eternity, according to his own wisdom, he...

I reject the TULIP/DoG because they are not biblical no matter how much you wish they were ZA. The reason we reject them is not because we do not know them ZA it is because we do.

I don't see anywhere in the bible of men trusting in Jesus because of the TULIP/DoG

True statement, God by His grace saves those that have freely trusted in Him.

I know this will sound strange to you but Jesus is God and He can and does draw people to Himself through various means. Strange that a calvinist would question whether God can save whomever He wants and how He wants. Are you not the ones that tout the TULIP/DoG? Rom 10:13 for "WHOEVER WILL...

We do not believe the DoG/TULIP which the majority of Christians rightly reject as it is not a biblical view. That so many people would follow the, DoG/TULIP, a man-made philosophy is strange indeed.

The belief that God determines all events, including every human action and thought. Do you really think that either view is uplifting the body of Christ ZA? Look at the divisions that have come about because people become tribal and develop an us against them world view. Of course I can...

They mormon's believe they can become gods. Not Christian. Same for JW's and a few others. Well since calvinism denies clear scripture are you suggesting that calvinists are not Christian?

That is where we will find God. Problem is that some think they have to correct the Holy Spirit.
