    You keep saying the same thing over and over but where is your biblical support. The Holy Spirit convicts the world of their sin but man still has to respond to that conviction.

    ROFGuiffawing! This is the very way that you get your jollies, bashing your Calvinist brothers and sisters in Christ! You're sick.

    Pointing out errors in their theology is not bashing them just trying to help them correct their errant views.

    They are my brothers & or sisters in Christ and it is because I care that I point out their errors.

    Would you do any less for your fellow Christians?

    Jesus answered and said to them, 'This is the work of God, that ye may believe in him whom He did send.'

    Simeon hath declared how God at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.

    God is the one doing the taking? They then become believing ones? They are given the Spirit of Truth.

    What was/is God doing?


    And God seeth the light, that good, and God divided between the light and the darkness,


    Was there already, at the moment above, something on the earth that needed to be destroyed? What did it have the power thereof? For answer see Heb 2:14

    Was the Christ the Lamb of God already considered to be slain? Why?

    How was God going to destroy what needed to be destroyed?

    What is man? Manifested as what 1 John 3:8 and for what purpose?

    Has that destruction been totally accomplished? How does the following apply? Romans 16:20 and the God of the peace shall bruise the Adversary under your feet quickly [in quickness]; the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen!

    the last enemy is done away -- death; 1 Cor 15:26

    How?

    And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there. Rev 21:25 What was called night? Gen 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.


    Why does first precede fruit and or born?

    Was Paul just as spiritually blind as he was physically blind? Was he healed of both at the same moment?

    KJV And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.
    NKJV Immediately he preached the Christ[fn] in the synagogues, that He is the Son of God.
    NIV At once he began to preach in the synagogues that Jesus is the Son of God.

    When could he spiritually see?
    When did he go from unbelief unto belief?
    When did he become, Of faith? Or, of the faith of Christ? Or, of the faith of Abraham?

    and to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed; He doth not say, 'And to seeds,' as of many, but as of one, 'And to thy seed,' which is Christ;

    It is SALVATION that is the Gift of God, and not FAITH!

    Another FALSE teaching from the so called "reformed"!
