The title of the thread is, "How can you preach the gospel if you believe in limited atonement?" The answer to that question is very simple. You preach the gospel as if everyone is capable of believing its message. It is the Holy Spirit that quickens the elect. That is not the role of the preacher. In fact, knowing that it is God and God alone who is responsible for every facet of salvation is liberating for the preacher. There is no need for Finneyistic manipulating of emotions. No need to try the newest thing (whatever that happens to be). Scripture says the gospel alone saves (Romans 1:17). What is withheld from our view is as clear as day to the triune God. Not one person for whom Christ has died for will fail to believe the gospel. All of the elect will believe the gospel message.
1) I identified all four views that contradict your fifth view.
2) Every passage has already been addressed to you by many on this site. You reject their views.
3) Each position has already been addressed to you by many on this site. You reject their views.
4) I know you reject the idea that your interpretation of scripture is wrong.
I accept that you have a blind spot that makes it impossible for you to see why you are wrong. I was once in your shoes. It took years of God teaching me in scripture that my Arminian views on the means of salvation were false and not supported in scripture. Perhaps one day you will see.
More nonsense, a wasted post. Note the generality of the "taint so" devoid of any specifics.
This is all they have, folks, denial upon denial.
Calvinist preacher: Jesus may have died for your sins, He died for the sins of those chosen unconditionally before creation. There is nothing you can do to alter the predestined outcome of your life, or the lives of your loved ones. They were either saved or condemned from all eternity for all eternity.
Of course for those of us who believe God desires all men to be saved and Christ laid down His life as a ransom for all, we think Calvinism offers a bogus view of the gospel.
Yet another you, you, you post addressing the poster and not the position. Did Christ fail?
That was the question.
And the answer?
Nope, Christ completed His purpose.
But what was the response, why you did not answer the question.
This behavior is all they have, folks.
And such behavior demonstrates they are pushing false doctrine.
Falsehood.
Note Christ laid down his life as a ransom for all, those to be saved and those never to be saved.
When is a person's sins removed?
When they are put in Christ.
How many times have I answered this one?
The ransom was the Lamb of God, blameless and perfect that suffered and died.
Note the Calvinist deny Jesus laid down His life as a ransom for all and became the propitiation or means of salvation for the whole world, all mankind.
Everyone God puts in Christ has their sin burden (what God holds against them) removed by the circumcision of Christ and the washing of regeneration.
Ok, so you answered the first part of my question, but not the second.
And no, that is not what Calvinists believe. We have different understandings of what words mean and are discussing. But we do not deny what the text says so you should stop spreading that falsehood. Again, you are not qualified to discuss what Calvinists believe because you don't represent it correctly.
Yet another defense by addressing the poster, i.e. you are not qualified.
Utter nonsense.
This is all they have, denial, misrepresentation and absurdity.
