    You are right that there is no other way to see Paul's words to the Christians in Rome. Do you think he said, under his breath, "not really, just check out what I wrote to the Corinthians"?

    MB, do you have to be corrected on this by me a second time? No Calvinist believes they need to be saved in order to believe. None. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Every Calvinist believes regeneration precedes faith/belief. If they do not then they are faux-Calvinists.

    Yes, in terms of soteriology I am a Calvinist. So what? That does not mean that I'll jump on your campaign and join your camp.

    What I oppose is not Calvinism or non-Calvinism. I oppose anti-Christian posts regardless of their origin.

    Wow....I did not realize we had gone this long.

    Thread is closed due to its length.

    If the conversation needs to continue please feel free to start another thread.

    Sorry I did not catch the length until now.
