    I'm certainly not a Calvinist; in fact I am opposed to Calvinism, but [the person] who started this thread is obviously not interested in anything except bringing attention to himself and causing strife.

    From a non-Calvinist

    No no one worships that image. What an absurd question.

    There is no truth outside of calvinist truth, just ask any calvinist they will set you straight in a hurry.

    I am a Calvinist and I will absolutely state that there are some issues where Calvin got it wrong, such as infant baptism. There is no truth outside of Biblical truth.

    A more accurate description would be that we adhere to the doctrines of grace! No calvinist I've ever heard of worships anyone other than God and John Calvins teachings only support those doctrines which totally come from scripture!
    Sadly many people are hostile and oppose what they know very little about!
    Reading James Boice, Martyn Lloyd-Jones or J.C. Ryle gives one clarity as to who God truly is and how we can know Him and worship Him as Isaiah declares in ch. 6! Nothing could be more marvelous than to consider what scripture tells us of God's truth! Many would truly benefit from time spent reading and knowing more of Him daily and what He has declared for our lives!

    What does your own holiness look like?

    Calvinists worship only God, and HIs Son our Savior! Never would we choose to worship a sinful soul as we each are!

    The next time you feel like GOD can't use you, just remember..
    Noah was a drunk
    Abraham was too old
    Isaac was a daydreamer
    Jacob was a liar
    Leah was ugly
    Joseph was abused
    Moses had a stuttering problem
    Gideon was afraid
    Samson had long hair and was a womanizer
    Rahab was a prostitute
    Jeremiah and Timothy were too young
    David had an affair and was a murderer
    Elijah was suicidal
    Isaiah preached naked
    Jonah ran from God
    Naomi was a widow
    Job went bankrupt
    Peter denied Christ
    The Disciples fell asleep while praying
    Martha worried about everything
    The Samaritan woman was divorced, more than once
    Zacchaeus was too small
    Paul was too religious
    Timothy had an ulcer..AND
    Lazarus was dead!
