He is agreeing with me! Which he normally does not do. And he is Reformed so no bias for what I say

My friend, I was saved by the grace of our Great God, way back in Feb of 1982. I have read these chapters many many times. Let me know what troubles you about them?

Calvin? Why him? The Bible says so!

"The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God" (2 Cor. 4:4) Instead of knocking them for their "blindness" Pray for them!!!

When I lived in London, I used to attend Metropolitan Tabernacle (started by C H Spurgeon), where Dr Peter Masters is the pastor. The hymn singling can be very powerful and uplifting.

but available to the entire human race

Calvin writes, "invites all men without exception", where the "Calvinistic" term is "without distinction". the former for the whole "human race", the latter, "the elect"

it is called FREE WILL which all humans have, and therefore have the ability to respond to the Gospel Message

unless you are accusing God of being insincere, IF He were to INVITE the whole human race, it is ONLY because He has provided for ALL their sins in the Death of the Lord Jesus Christ. Redemption has been completed for the whole human race, but all will not be saved because all will not accept...

Calvin on John 3:16 "That whosoever believeth on him may not perish. It is a remarkable commendation of faith, that it frees us from everlasting destruction. For he intended expressly to state that, though we appear to have been born to death, undoubted deliverance is offered to us by the faith...

what complete rubbish. So humans are no more than a bunch of machines! you guys should quit your theology and start accepting what the Bible says!
