Why do Arminians have such a small view of God?

[Van]

Eleven pages of false theology ought to be enough for anyone. Please close this thread. The Arminian God is just as powerful (all powerful) as the Calvinist God. Just as infinite. Any Calvinist who tries to measure the infinite and say one view of infinite is smaller than another view of infinite is simply posting irrational nonsense. God is sovereign and causes or allows whatsoever comes to pass, but is not the author of sin, a bogus view necessary for those that claim God predestines everything.

God's plan of redemption is not to compel folks to believe, but to draw them with lovinigkindness and persuade them with the gospel of Christ. We do not save ourselves by putting our trust in Christ, God, if He credits our faith (and He knows our heart) as righteousness saves us monergistically by transferring us into Christ.

You declare God's will to be evil because you place yourself above God and think of Him as your advisor rather than your Master.
God is good. All that He ordains is because He is good and His good plans use evil people and tragedy for purposes we will never know.
God doesn't explain everything to us. He only asks us to trust Him.

You sound like the Muslims who think God is their master instead of Our Father.

Letting Jesus die on the cross is not wimpy.

Your idea of what power is, is immature. Your trying to project the only way you could make things work as God's only option.

God never does evil.

I did not declare Gods will to be evil. You either need reading comprehension lessons or honesty lessons.

Great! You are a Calvinist!

Remember, if it ain't a pink unicorn with bright blue eyes and when you kiss its forehead it tastes like marshmallows, it ain't come from God.

You say that a God who chooses to have troubles come upon us is an evil God by asking me why I want an evil God.

I worship a good and loving God who brings both good and bad to my life for His glory.

Like a young, sick, child who cannot comprehend the purposes of their parents when they inflict pain in order to heal, so we are with God. We do not comprehend how what seems so wrong is actually God's ordained will for something infinitely better.

I trust my loving Father, just as Yeshua had to trust Him when the Father brought the whip and the cross to the Son.

Tell me, was not that tragic day also the greatest good the world has ever known?
