Featured Some flaws to Calvinism.. Reformed we need to get it together!

I completely disagree. Calvinists often completely ignore scripture that obviously refutes them.

For instance, I have asked any Calvinist to show scripture that shows we receive the Holy Spirit before belief. To this day, no Calvinist has shown a single scripture to support this.

To the contrary, I have presented nearly a dozen scriptures that all clearly show a person first believes and receives the Spirit afterward. Yet Calvinists insist their view is correct.

Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

You might get offended, but I have concluded that almost all Calvinists are intellectually dishonest. This is not an issue of interpretation, these scriptures are clear and undeniable.

I cannot count how many times I and others have presented clear scripture that refutes Calvinism, Calvinists simply insist their view is correct even when all scripture contradicts it. That is dishonesty.

 

If I lived my life based on what morons think, I would be wasting my life.

Who cares what they think?

John Calvin systematized these doctrines like no one else in history.

Calvinism has done more for the Gospel than any other system of thought in history.

Even Eric Hankins, a rabid anti-Calvinist, acknowledges that Calvinism gave us our high view of God and Scripture!

Amerigo Vespucci is the explorer whose name our continent bears. Do you say, "I am not an AMERICAN. I am a Declaration of Indepencist because I don't want anybody saying that I follow a man who died 500 years ago"?

No.

So this is unwarranted on many levels.

Only a fool lets his enemies define him.

Nobody is ruder than Arminians who attack Calvinists and try to purge the SBC of them.

NOBODY on baptistboard,even including me, is any more insulting and condemnatory than Winman and Van.

This is just a bogus claim that dumb people make who feel threatened by more intelligent Calvinsts who beat them in debates.

Some stupid Calvinists do this.

 

You don't have a clue, Reformed theology is nowhere near correct. I could show you hundreds of verses that all contradict Calvinism. I am not an Arminian, but Arminians are MUCH closer to what the scriptures are saying than Calvinists, no contest.

It's not about what you like, it about life and death and what the scriptures are REALLY teaching. Where you spend eternity depends on knowing the truth. They don't sell Mike's Hard Lemonade in hell.

 

Its getting a bit cagey in here

 

And those who misrepresent the word of God by countless abuses of proof texts manipulated to saying what they WANT it to say will wish there WERE such beverages in hell to quench their undying thirsts

 

You better go fishing while you still can.

 

Whatever that means...

 

The point is merely at the top of their heads....:laugh:

I am not sure you can provide that much definition to your beliefs at this point & Im pretty certain you dont understand the intermingling in Calvinism & Reformed theology. Also, I dont think you completely understand the different types of Arminians & Non-Calvinists that are out there so how could you possibly put definition to your beliefs when you dont have the knowledge or the experience to do that job?

 

So says Winman, the one point Calvinist!

 

Why yes...I do:thumbs:

 

I am not a one point Calvinist, I believe in preservation of the Saints, not perseverance. I am not working to be saved, I am not enduring to the end, I am born again of incorruptible seed.

Do you know what "incorruptible" means?

What I believe and what you believe are very different.

 

And you have alieniated almost everyone on this forum....good work:thumbs:
