An Open Letter To Posthuman
Some of you know that I have brought an unanswerable challenge to the doctrine of OSAS by appealing to Matthew 24:12-13 KJV where two classes of people are contrasted:
Class A is "the love of many shall wax cold" and
Class B is "he that shall endure to the end, the same shall be saved." Class B clearly describes those whose love stays warm and alive, allowing them to endure to the end and be saved
-- in complete contrast to Class A -- which depicts those whose love grows cold and dead because of iniquity, leaving them unable to endure to the end, and thus lost.
In verse 12, Jesus specifically uses the Greek "agape" to describe the "love" of these many which grows cold in them, which means "unconditional love of God".
This proves these "many" can only be Saints -- because sinners by virtue of their spiritual disconnection from God cannot partake of such unconditional, divine, Godly love.
Posthuman has presented a counter argument that any Christian worth the "salt of the Earth" that he is supposed to be should find both shocking and offensive:
Sinners are indeed able to partake of agape aka "unconditional, divine, Godly love".
This is heresy, in my opinion, that ranks right up there with the Pope's claim to be "Jesus Christ Himself, hidden under veil of flesh". It is nothing more than an insane leftist attempt to unite the impenitent, wicked carnal with He who is divinely righteous; something the occult world has sought to do since time immemorial. Posthuman supports this claim by pointing out that in several verses of Scripture, "agapao" -- which is the verb form of "agape" -- is used in connection with sinners, such as in John 3:19 KJV where it says "men loved ("agapao") darkness".
I informed Posthuman that "agapao" has several different meanings that do not include the concept of "unconditional, Godly love" such as merely "to prefer", and that this is no evidence at all to support his ridiculous claim that the wicked can partake of unconditional, divine, Godly love.
I asked him to write a public retraction for having possibly lead or further ensconced anyone into a belief in OSAS, but he has doubled down.
I then challenged him to provide just one single verse in all of Scripture where the love of a wicked person is specifically said to be "agape", and have been waiting three days.
I like Posthuman and I think he is sincere, but sincerely wrong, There is a clearly defined line of demarcation between wickedness and righteousness. The wicked are spiritually dead (1 Timothy 5:6 KJV), cannot obey God's law (Romans 8:7 KJV), and by virtue of that certainly are not able to partake of unconditional, divine, Godly love.
