    Free-willers used to kill and persecute

    Me, too. However, many noncalvinists don't like it when calvinists use that term to describe what they believe. Some think it's dishonest—a way...

    Ephesians by Gordon Clark

    It isn't Paul who made that remark, so what does that have to do with the way Paul uses the word "called"? There are places where Paul uses...

    "...in Your name we pray, Amen."

    A good book on this subject is Praying Backwards by Bryan Chapell. In a nutshell, praying in Jesus's name is an acknowledgement that it is...

    Sheep and Goats

    Is there anywhere in the Bible that indicates that a goat has become a sheep? No. There are sheep yet outside the fold, but a goat doesn't...

    Geographical Calvinism

    No. God's choice of people's time and place is logically subsequent to his choice of people for salvation. Your question would only make sense if...

    Geographical Calvinism

    And I'm saying that election isn't restricted to certain people groups, but is rather the choice of certain people, and those people are placed...

    Geographical Calvinism

    Geographical Calvinism

    Geographical Calvinism

    Was John Calvin A Hyper-Calvinist Or A Moderate Calvinist?

    Nope. The "lapses" are just for two of the calvinistic orders. They have to do with whether the decree of election is directly above (supra) or...
