Featured Jerry Walls Refuting Calvinistic Soteriology

Straw man as always. Never said they couldn’t keep “part” of the Law. That’s not the standard required by God. He required they keep all of it, perfectly, knowing they couldn’t keep all of it perfectly.

If God responds to what a person does in granting salvation, it is works salvation.

If a person response to what God has done in intervening in their lives by Holy Spirit, convicting them of the truth of the gospel and drawing them into a loving relationship with Himself, you have grace.

peace to you

 

On and on folks, were there any OT saints who did their best to keep the law? Of course, read Hebrews 11.
Salvation through or by reason of faith is not works, Romans 4.
Did anyone say people are not saved by grace through faith? Nope so the person posting "straw man" using "straw man" in the same post. I kid you not.

 

Yes, God knows all things. God is omnipotent. God is not insincere in anything He does.

God would rather the wicked turn and have salvation. He would rather all respond to the gospel. They, we, all turned and rejected God. That doesn’t reflect badly on God’s character, it reflects badly on ours.

That God has mercy and doesn’t leave those He has chosen to die in sin is a testimony to His grace and His love.

peace to you

 

It was never a question of eternal salvation.The people of Nineveh were spared an immediate destruction of their nation.

God later used them to destroy the Northern tribes of Israel.

peace to you

 

Seriously, I have spoken with drunkards w a better understanding of God than Jerry and evil men w more respect for God

Think Im kidding around?

I spent 6 yrs preaching at the Union Rescue Mission in Mphs

 

And he fires back with irrelevant, random verses.


No matter how you slice it, the noncalvinist argument will always boil down to his unbiblical notions of justice. In one form or another, your argument will be, Why doth he yet find fault, for who hath resisted his will?

 

Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.

Knowing man's predisposition to carnal notions of justice, Paul anticipated your argument: Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?

And, that is the crux of your argument.

Every time.

And it's the whole argument in your video. But Paul fell that with one little verse.

 

Not in my KJV!... So what does scripture say?... Brother Glen

Romans 9:19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?

9:20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?

9:21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?

9:22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:

9:23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,

9:24 Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?

9:25 As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.

9:26 And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.

 

If God's will is to allow people to believe fully in Christ or not, then to believe or not is according to God's will. What these Calvinists are doing is claiming God's will is to compel salvation via irresistible grace, which is false doctrine. God's justice is perfect because He allows people to believe in Christ or not. If God, as Calvinism claims, made individuals unable to believe, then punished them for not believing, God would be the God of Calvinism.

 

Correct.Carnal philosophy does not refute truth.
Truth stands regardless of his emotional philosophy.

 

No validity here. We should not blame God for mans sin.God has purposed to save a multitude no one an can number.
This ungodly assertion is rejected.

 

But it certainly clarifies it.
