    Yet another denial of the obvious. Anytime scripture proves Calvinism is bogus, the Calvinists claim the verse does not mean what it says. Pathetic.

    Claiming the argument is invalid and not on point is a subject change. Calvinism falsely claims the lost never at any time seek God or seek God effectively yet Jesus says many seek the narrow gate and some, a few find it. Thus they do seek God and seek God effectively. Therefore Calvinism is as bogus as a three dollar bill.

    Does 2 + 2 = 4? Formulating questions based on feigned ignorance demonstrates deception.

    Calvinist all say the same absurd things, like taint so and Van is rotten for saying so. To be fair I have encountered at least two Calvinists with integrity, they did not agree with me, but they did not intentionally misrepresent my views to score worthless points.

    Again and again this Calvinist posts passages that prove Calvinism is bogus.

    The text says Calvinism is as bogus as a three dollar bill. Jesus says many seek God in that they seek the narrow gate that leads to life. All the Calvinist can do is made pathetic arguments like seeking eternal life is not seeking God. Complete rubbish.

    No it is not. If I am seeking a way to get out of hell, does that necessitate that I am seeking after God almighty to do so? That is a legitimate question. The answer is an obvious no, it does not necessitate that. It just means I am seeking an escape from Hell.

    Agreed.
    Van doesn't discuss the text. He just blames calvin.
