"Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel: Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound. Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory" (II Timothy 2:8-10).

What, are you too lazy to quote a passage of Scripture. Yea, the JW's rejoice in that they are being persecuted too when someone stands up to their heresies.
More condemnation, more derogation from you.

The point as to why Paul preached, and we as well, according to the text? Because the elect are out there and we are to reach them. Paul was one of the biggest Calvinists out there, but he only took after his Lord and Savior.

Now, now, you resort to mistruths? You've already told us calvinists are going to hell, thus you have condemned them. Why not own up and tell the truth? What is that about liars in the NT?
Really, and you do not condemn multitudes to hell because you don't think they are elected so you don't even bother to evangelize them?

Dang, I missed that verse where Paul says, "I am a Calvinist!" Neat trick seeing as how the old murderer wasn't even alive back then.

No one is condemning anyone to hell. That is God’s place to do that, not ours. We are to witness to all we come into contact with.

Again my friend, why all the hatred in your heart towards you fellow Brothers?
Have you noticed all the love and gentleness they have been sending my way?

You sound like the liberal that told a reporter that he could rape her and nothing would happen to him, and when she turned to the crowd for help they all denied that he said it. Birds of a feather flock together.

Whatever . . . you all have your own interpretation of the Scriptures so I could probably send him a holy kiss and you would accuse me of sending the kiss of death.
Again, my Brother, I sense hatred in your heart towards your fellow believers that should not be there.

So you would witness to a guy consigned to hell by our loving God in order to give him a false hope? He might even respond favorable to your witness and still not be elected. You are quite irrational.

Do you part and not respond in the same fashion.

Pro. 15:1 A gentle response defuses anger,
but a sharp tongue kindles a temper-fire.

I don't know who the elect are, nor do you, nor do I not evangelize "them".

Your assumptions, and theology, are all wrong. Are you ready to learn, finally? I was where you are, you've got to drop your pride and tradition to grow. I pray you do, friend. I sincerely mean that.

When I witness to someone, I do not know much about them. I give them the good news of Jesus and leave him in God’s hands.

My suggestion for you is that you get out of the cult of Calvinism . . . there, I don't hate you. Any more accusations to throw at me?

With all the love and concern that I can possibly muster for you, go pray for someone else. I'm not praying for you because you have turned to your idol and I'm told to leave you be.
