    The caricatures of Calvinism is all they have. No historic Calvinist has ever said that we are puppets with no control whatsoever over our minds and wills. It’s laughable. That’s hyper-Calvinism and Warren is crying about being mis-represented 😂They take God, strip him of what makes Him God and forces Him to operate by the same parameters as man. They really need to understand the difference between creature and creator

    Calvinism's perverted doctrine of "Predestination" is striking similar if not identical to the Islamic doctrine of Fatalism? 1) The Islamic Surah Ibrahim 14:4 - "And We did not send any messenger except [speaking] in the language of his people to state clearly for them, and ALLAH SENDS ASTRAY(THEREBY) WHOM HE WILLS AND GUIDES WHOM HE WILLS. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise." 2) The Islamic Surah 2:6-7 states, "It is the same to them whether you warn them or do not warn them, they will not believe. ALLAH HAS SET A SEAL ON THEIR HEARTS AND ON THEIR HEARING. AND ON THEIR EYES IS A VEIL; GREAT IS THE CHASTISEMENT THEY INCUR." 3) John Calvin's Institutes of the Christian Religion, Book 3, Chapter 21, section 5 - "SOME ARE PREORDAINED TO ETERNAL LIFE, OTHERS TO ETERNAL DAMNATION, and accordingly, as each has been created for one or other of those ends, we say that he has been predestined to life or death." 4) "That owing to one man all pass into condemnation who are born of Adam unless they are born again in Christ, even as He has appointed them to be regenerated, before they die in the body, whom He PREDESTINATED TO EVERLASTING LIFE, as the most merciful bestower of grace; while to those whom He HAS PREDESTINATED TO ETERNAL DEATH, He is also the most righteous awarder of punishment not only on account of the sins which they add in the indulgence of their own will, but also because of their original sin, even if, as in the case of infants, they add nothing thereto. Now this is my definite view on that question, so that the hidden things of God may keep their secret, without impairing my own faith." - Augustine, City of God, On the Soul and its Origin, Book 4, Chapter 16. 5) In Islam, in the 2nd stage of "Taqdeer" (fate), it states that "Allah made a divine decree after the creation of Adam. Allah took out all of the progeny of Adam (i.e. all of the humans from the beginning of time until the end of time), and asked them "Am I not your Lord?" and all of the humans responded "We testify that You are our Lord!" THEN ALLAH DECREED TO THEM WHO SHALL GO TO PARADISE AND WHO SHALL GO TO HELL." 6) In Islam, Allah is exalted and pleased as he sends people to hell: this is the fatalistic claim of Islam. Fatalism is a belief that events are fixed in advance for all time in such a manner that human beings are powerless to change them. In this case, Allah will send to heaven whomever he pleases, and send to hell whomever he pleases. ("Unveiling Islam: An Insider’s Look at Muslim Life and Beliefs" pages 31-32, by authors Ergun Mehmet Caner and Emir Fethi Caner Grand Rapids, MI: Kregel Publications, 2002.) That is why Satan has raised up such gifted false teachers in our day, that have the power to blind un suspecting Christians. The lazy Christian. The Christian that does not go to the Word and does not "ASK" the Holy Spirit for guidance. So these wolves in sheep's clothing like, John Piper, John MacArthur, Paul Washer, Lawson, James White, Voddie Baucham, RC Sproul are ravaging the sheep. They are not brothers, they are Satan's finest false teachers. Truth in Love

    “@Postmillhighlights ” I agree, salvation is comprised of human freedom with God's grace. It is very biblical and has been maintained by old Christianity. Let’s forget about the heresy of Monergism. Inquisitive. Do you believe the idea God chooses some creatures to be saved and the majority to be damned to hell Matthew 7:13-14? Many Baptist Churches, The United Methodist Churches, Wesleyan Churches, Episcopalians, Pentecostal Churches, The Church of the Nazarene Church, Anglican Churches, Church of Christ Churches, The Mennonite Churches and most Non-Denominational Churches. All of those Protestant Christian churches reject the iniquitous tulip doctrine of Jean Calvin. The Orthodox, Catholic or the Assyrian Churches also reject Jean Calvin’s TULIP and double predestination doctrine. Instead of saying they are all Calvinist verses; you should rather say the entire Holy Bible are the verses of YHWH God Almighty. Not Calvin. You are probably talking about 1 John 2:2 regarding propitiation. 1 John 2:2 describes how Jesus Christ's death and life satisfied God's wrath against sin and against people, turning away God's wrath from them. Would I say to satisfy wrath. No. All Christians are now protected by the blood of my God, Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It has turned my Father God wrath from them. All 3 questions were answered on your last paragraph. Message me if you have any more questions. God bless you.

    "70-90% of normal church goers would fail the test of explaining the trinity and would test positive for some kind of heresy" -James White People who believe Christ is the Son of God and died for their sins. The trinity is not essential or biblical for that matter. That's why it was "interpreted from the text" 300 years after Christ.

      I think he presented a wide range of evidence. Furthermore, a postion of love wo truth can not be great. This quote helps to shed the light between love and truth as well: "Love without truth is sentimentality; it supports and affirms us but keeps us in denial about our flaws. Truth without love is harshness; it gives us information but in such a way that we cannot really hear it. God's saving love in Christ, however, is marked by both radical truthfulness about who we are and yet also radical, unconditional commitment to us. The merciful commitment strengthens us to see the truth about ourselves and repent. The conviction and repentance moves us to cling to and rest in God's mercy and grace." Tim Keller

    You ERR because you are woefully blind to the power of God! Even if all 54 scholars were unsaved, the “inspired texts:” of the providentially given: Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek manuscripts “were faithfully translated” into English by the greatest scholars of their day: in the fear of God: and: fear of the King! Providence is tangibly realized in “the finished product itself:” “the 1611 King James Bible:” Amen! And you (James White) are a ham and egger pseudointellectual hack; you couldn’t hold a candle to the least among the world class scholars involved in that historic translation process. Because you’ve decided to make a career of “adding to” and “taking away” from God’s word (the King James Bible), you will not escape the damnation of HELL!!! This message is not really for this FOOL (James White), it’s for anyone else seeing this; so this is a WARNING to everyone about this LIAR! I won’t waste my time on the “twice-dead:” except to rebuke them sharply!

    "If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. And if your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell." Matthew 5:29-30........Revelation 14:11 "And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.”" Sounds eternal to me.....I understand why people don't like the doctrine but there are all kinds of things in the Bible that I might not like but doesn't make them untrue.

    I didn't agree entirely with the response. I think much of it was a very confusing opinion on what "Justice" is. If humans have the ability to Love another so much, they would not want them to suffer day and night forever, would that mean our love is greater than God's? That would be blasphemous to think so. Which is why I question Hell being eternal. What is Justice, and what is Mercy? I know we are not perfect in either, but it is something to think about.

Evil is nothing, like a shadow its a lack of something. He made evil possible because He wanted free sons and daughters, not robots.

    People have been circumcised that were never saved. It was a sign of the covenant. I started to read the Bible every day, study it and go to church during the week and twice on Sundays as much as I could. I tried to be better but after a year I felt more sinful and instead of better, worst. One night I could not sleep and I felt depressed I started to cry out to the Lord and said: “Lord God I deserve Hell but I cannot for eternity be separated from You.” I saw that one who dies without Christ will instantly be separated from our Creator. Even the atheist and Jews are held up by the God they do not believe in. That is why Christ at the Cross cried out: “My God My God Why have you forsaken me” That we would never be FORSAKEN from our Lord God. It was the deepest point of His suffering. Then these words came in my heart: “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” I saw that God The Father was well pleased with Jesus when He died at the cross and gave His Blood for many. I said Lord God If you are pleased with that scarifies at the Cross why Would I not be pleased with it. I saw that Christ was nailed to the Cross for my sins, and cried out: “My God My God why have You forsaken Me, so that I never will be forsaken by My Heavenly Father. Looking to Christ alone and not my righteousness. At that moment peace came into my heart. Peace With God that no one can understand except only through the Holy Spirit, I felt that the Blood of Christ had washed my sins away. I felt as if I was walking in Paradise without Sin. I was 17 at that time. I’m 82 now. The Bible is the perfect Word of God, and is not only the world’s most widely sold but also most translated book in the world. Individual parts have been translated into 3,394 languages, and the complete Bible into 694 languages. No other book not to mention ancient books are coming even close. That is supernatural. Those that read with faith have been given understanding of the Word of the Lord. Has believer baptism created falls believers?

My father was a Deacon at the time, and he asked the pastor, "So you don't believe in a universal Church? Pastor: "No, there are only local independent churches." Dad: "So, the Body of Christ is only local church members?" Pastor: "Correct." Dad: "And you have to be baptized by a Baptist minister to become a member of a local church?" Pastor: "Correct." Dad: "So, to be a part of the Body of Christ, you must be baptized by a Baptist minister into a local Baptist Church. Isn't that baptismal regeneration?" Pastor: *dead silence* We left the church the next day.

    Riddle's position here is simply indefensible. Not only is it illogical, and ahistorical. It is a pseudo-theological position which when it comes down to it, it just a "leap" of faith that is based not on any exegetical or derived doctrine but the desire for certainty (at the expense of truth). Roman Catholics do not fundamentally argue any differently than this when they attempt to "prove" Rome as Christ's church.

    The reason the filioque wasn’t/isn’t an issue with the majority of lay Christian’s is because they actually don’t fully understand the Holy Trinity and the uniqueness of each Person of the trinity and how the filioque alters that uniqueness and overall balance of the God head. As such people just respond with a “meh”, which is such a lazy way to address an issue, personally I think the filioque wrong (irrespective if I’m orthodox or not) but that’s because I have made an effort to understand our triune God. Most people just trust church hierarchy to worry about such issue and then just follow the crowd but I think they should be made to understand the trinity and uniqueness of the Persons how the filioque interferes with everything.

    God went to the cross to most-exalt Himself in God The Son. If not for the sake of most-exalting God, then it may instead have been something less righteous than the cross of Christ, for there is no separation between God's demonstration of His absolute devotion to virtue and the exaltation of God in acting according to His omnivirtue. At the same time, the fact that God most-exalts Himself through the juxtaposition of His mercy and justice is very worthy of both consideration and application, that God chose to prioritize humans in that way to therein glorify Himself, such that it speaks to God's beauty, and in hearing that statement of God's beauty we see God as He Is, the Omniexalted One.

  • @davidliu7967

    God is not the author of sin. Some of the confusion is from conflating pre-fall and after fall humanity. Adam and Eve were created upright with the ability to truly choose good or evil, we lost that ability after the fall and are a slave to sin in our fallen nature outside of being regenerated by God. God has a divine decree, He is completely sovereign. He didn’t force Adam to sin, Adam freely chose it. But that doesn’t mean God didn’t ordain it. The problem is this humanistic view of free will. It’s a fiction. There is no such thing as libertarian free will, not since the fall. Primary and secondary causes are a real thing. It’s not easy to make sense of the state of Adam and the original fall, or how humanity freely chooses the things God has ordained to come to pass, but we know that it happened, God ordains all things and that He isn’t the author of evil, but He sovereignly uses it to accomplish his purposes.

    @icwiener9935 5 дней назад

    We tend to anthropomorphize God and talk about Him as caring, loving, and forgiving, or sometimes also wrathful. We use all those adjectives that we describe humans with, also to describe God. The idea of God having desires or issuing commands is as well an anthropomorphic misunderstanding. The stories in the Bible are written by humans, so they contain human biases and limitations. The writers try to explain God's rules with human language, logic, and morals so that it makes sense to the reader and themselves. But because God is eternal, all-powerful, and not limited by any natural laws, He is indifferent about us as He, in a way, is those natural laws He created which are as well indifferent about us. So "Good" and "evil" are not absolute concepts decreed by God. Instead, they are relative terms that humans use to describe what is beneficial or harmful to them. That does not mean that it doesn't matter if we do evil or good, because it clearly does, as our actions as free men and women have an effect on our lives and the society we live in. It just means that God Himself is indifferent about human decisions, actions and their suffering. This perspective extends to other religious concepts as well. Heaven and hell can be seen rather symbolically and not as literal locations. 'Heaven' might represent a state of intellectual and emotional fulfillment, achieved through understanding the nature of reality, while 'Hell' could symbolize a state of confusion, ignorance, or bondage to passions and inadequate ideas, that leads to suffering in oneself or others. Furthermore, if we consider God as the totality of natural laws, then God's 'plan' was already fulfilled at the moment of creation. The universe, including humanity with their free will, simply unfolds according to these established natural laws. Our existence and experiences are the result of complex interactions within this system, rather than the product of continual divine intervention or planning.

      Great question! Personally, I think he can and did in Adam. But since Adam sinned, we are slaves to sin, or dead in sin. Dead people do not come to life on their own, and slaves do not free themselves. So the only way to God is through Jesus, and the only way to Jesus is him setting us free. Whoever the son sets free, is free indeed

    If God sought to help the ones who need it the most, like some say, Satan would be the first into Heaven. People prefer stories over what the Bible says.
