Very nicely articulated!!! No new revelations adding to scripture. Only confirmations of what has already been given by the apostles and OT prophets. For the life of me I cannot understand why a Calvinist of all people would make God anything less than God. He is not going against His Word, He...

Brother Willis, Yes, we all know about Joseph Smith and false visitations by satan disguised as an angel of light. This is why we must try the spirits, to see if they be of God. If one comes to you and says I had a dream and an angel appeared to me and said Jesus Christ is the Son of God and...

We all have our own different testimonies of how we came to Christ and how we came to understand the doctrines we embrace. With me, I started out with an open mind towards both arguments, listening to commentarians from both camps. It took about two years of study of the Bible and the Spirit's...

I was being generous. :wavey: Ah, you better not paint your camp with such a broad brush there. I know a few on the BB here who declare there is no such thing as freewill found in the bible. You mean there are more than 27 books!!!!!! :rolleyes: I will have to check these out! Yes, that...

What is nice about listening to these teachers is I have access to the same Holy Spirit and the same Bible as they do. I can learn truth and at the same time learn error. All one has to do is match up what is being said as commentary with what is actually written, and of course the entire time...

Here is a good article in Christian Today... http://www.christianitytoday.com/parse/2011/november/john-piper-suspicious-of-muslim-dreams-of-jesus.html Notice all of the great comments from Christians at the end. Guess they are all mystics too.......

So let me understand your position here. Jesus Christ is not allowed to visit anyone and preach the gospel to them? And He is not allowed to send an angel to anyone to preach the gospel to them. And He is not allowed to cause anyone to dream dreams concerning the Gospel? Is this your position?

Isn't this quite a turn of events? Calvinist insisting God must work in cooperation with man. How I love this!!!!!!:tongue3:

Nope. God ain't saving any of them. Don't care how much they praise and worship Jesus Christ as God. They are all lying!!!!!

Now look! God is not allowed to work without the cooperation of man. Now wait a minute, I thought Calvinism says God does not need any cooperation from man? Oh but God In His Soverneity Chooses to let man cooperate with Him, if they so freely choose to. I guess whenever it is conveint foe the...

Well, I have been listening to these men's programs for about 17 years now and still do today. So I would wager it has been hundreds of hours. Read a couple of Piper's books, Spectacular Sins is an excellent read, I highly recommend it. Well, thanks for spending some of your precious time with...

And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven. And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me. And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it...

Very Good! :thumbsup: Also under #4, even if another person does not preach to these isolated individuals, it has been reported abroad how some have been visited by an angel in dreams or even Jesus Christ Himself, which sparked a harvest of sheep for God in remote areas. God is not limited to...

You guys kill me :laugh: It isn't the gospel. It is the gospel. Well if you say it like that it's the gospel. Well, no, yes, maybe...

Actually, everything I know about Calvinism has come from Calvinist. I must have listened to hundreds of lessons from Sproul, MacArthur, Piper. And then there are all the Calvinist here on the BB. All of my thread topics were derived from things Calvinist have proclaimed here on the BB. TULIP is...

WHAT?? Who here thinks the Gospel is offensive??? Surely you are not calling TULIP/Calvinism the Gospel, or is that exactly what you are doing?

My only camp is the Christian camp where folks are allowed to be in the sanctification process and at different levels of understanding, even wrong. Not this either you believe the way I do on theology or your not one of God's Sheep camp.

That's really sad. We actually had a person in our church, not a lady, but a man, who could not carry a tune, I mean he was really bad, but he sure could move our hearts for his passion for Jesus Christ and his willingness to get up in front of everyone and not be ashamed of it. I suppose there...

And don't forget SBM also...Oh wait, a Baptist Calvinist is trying to straighten out that Baptist Calvinist.
