Yes as many as the father gave power to come they alone are the elect. Those he did not give pwer cannot come (no faith) The Son of man had no power of his own . He did the will of the Father working as one

This is another skew of scripture by the Calvinites......Many are called <--- MANY...not just a few select ISM followers

I don't get the laughing at scripture. Apparently even scripture is suspect if it does not quote Calvin

Many are called to be God's adopted children (the wide gate), but few are chosen, to understand Christ's doctrine (the strait gate)

haha. I just read another one that might be in the running. Apparently when Phoebe is called a servant of the church, someone is taking that to mean a lowly position. So I wondered what they thought of Paul calling himself a servant.

many new doctrines and interpretations. this could be why the Catholic church frowned on the common people having their own Bible (sorry bad joke)

yet Jesus said His sheep know His voice and won't go with another

My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me. John 10: 27

pause for intermission :censored:

There are too many scriptures that do not harmonize with your interpreted belief, and you seem to just dismiss them with "geesh man".

The inspired scriptures were not inspired by God to be instrumental in the eternal deliverance of mankind, but were written by God, to his regenerated children, as instructions as to how God wants his children to live their lives, while they sojourn here on earth.

God does give mankind a free will to choose how he wants to live his life here on earth, and a lot of times, we are disobedient children, and are in need of his love, in the form of his chastening rod. In Psalms 73 David says he was envious of the wicked ( unregenerate) because they were not divinely chastened by God.
