    In an evangelism context I will explain it to people which means to surrender and submit (2 Cor 5:17) and then I point them to the books of James, 1 John, etc. Regarding Non Calvinists I do not debate LS with them on the streets.

    Yes I read Dan Kimballs book on the topic and I also read The Truth War by Mac both undergraduate level. Joel Osteen? Do you know of any books solely on him? If not why are you defending Joel Osteen?

    I am a slave of God as all christians should be and yes this book defends LS. I am also a street evangelist as seek to win the lost as christians should be.

    A joke, but you know even though I have not read any books on this topic I am still an expert.

    Why not? I mean, you obviously have a strong enough understanding of LS to debate it with just about anyone...so why don't non-Cals warrant your time on this issue?

    Because its a secondary issue and I do not debate secondary issues on the streets. I seek to reach and win the lost! I do not send any letters to churches that disagree with LS neither.

    So according to your logic, even though the bible says we are not saved by works, I must read books and do extensive study on Roman Catholicism before I can proclaim it as false?

    Now, American Dreamer, don't go telling Evan6589 that you get your theology strictly out of the Bible. :smilewinkgrin:

    Don't you know you must read books about theology by Reformed, Way of the Master and dispy Calvinist writers? Otherwise you are unqualified to speak on any subject!

    Once again Evan is showing his disregard for the Bible in favor of man made books. (Oh and and according to the OP I can say that because I have read cover to cover all the Mac books he sites). The Bible is our authority not a book by Mac. And I would rather discuss theology with someone who has read the Bible over and over and over again then someone who has never read it cover to cover and has to run to the book of the week to make his argument.

    LS is not works based and is fully supported in scripture.
