Calvinists help me understand

[Winman]

Well....in your view, faith is not a gift of God, it comes from sinners....they can justify themselves...

Faith is simply believing God's word. God justifies and forgives sin.

In your view, repentance is not a gift of God, it comes from sinners...

God's word convicts and enlightens a man, but the man must repent.

In your view, babies need no repentance...no blood of Christ needed....

The scripture SAYS babies have not sinned.

Rom 9:11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth; )

Jacob and Esau were quite alive in Rebecca's womb, and Paul said they had done no evil.

Tell me Willis, what sin did they need to repent of? Please answer this question honestly.

And don't tell me Adam's sin, because this very verse says they had done no evil. They did not sin with Adam in his loins as some falsely teach.

So, if Jacob and Esau had done no evil (and that is what this scripture says), what do they need to repent of?

Do babies die in the womb Willis?

You aver you're not an Arminian, to which the Arminians shouted, "Hallelujah and amen!!!"

Who cares? Not me. Do you need some sort of label to know who you are?

Yes...."Christian"....people have died for that labels testimony....and you know that! :wavey:

Yes...."Christian"....people have died for that labels testimony....and you know that! :wavey:

I simply call myself a believer. If you want to be called by some label, that is your prerogative.
