That’s speaking in general terms, not individually as you have proclaimed. Try again.

John 15:18 is another one that comes to mind, but the Bible doesn't always use infant language. Sometimes we need to take a whole bunch of related scriptures to form a picture and get the gist of what it's saying

The Apostles were all Calvinists, and so were all the greatest preaches in history such as the Price of Preachers C h Spurgeaon himself. So your going against God's chosen people

A man becomes a child of God when he believes the Divine's Book, a man becomes calvinist by believing man's book.

This about says it all from a Calvinist perspective. All they need is the divine "Poof" and you are in.

Absolutely right, we don't need the gospel to be saved. Millions have been saved without ever reading a Bible, the thief on the cross didn't even get a chance to partake in Bible study or baptism

Your welcome to your opinion but your not God's ambassador, everyone's view is equally valid because there's no way of proving anything

Au contraire’, Christians are absolutely God’s ambassadors, and the only view that is valid is God’s Truth, hence why we proclaim it. That makes your view null and void.

Adjusted my post so you can take your ribbon away.

The thief on the cross trusted in the Saviour for salvation... Calvinites do not.

God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the week things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty ~ 1 Corinthians 1:27

But what is Gods truth, when we have so many different interpretations of what Gods truth is. How do you know that your interpretation is the only correct one?

You can preach the word to a reprobate until you turn blue in the face and he will still not believe it. God must first give one the gift of belief-faith before he can even begin to accept what he saw as foolishness

Tell that to all the people to WHOME the word filled their hearts and through the word repented and had faith and were saved

You did not answer me. How can a man dead in sin be made alive in sin? Since according to your view justification has

Calvin preached trust in Christ, so someone has lied to you my friend

A trust/belief that cannot happen until one is regenerated first. which is the incorrect order.

John Calvin back peddled on his erroneous doctrines and then go back again... another thing I notice is this appeal to authority of Calvin.
He was not divinely inspired.

The Apostles were Jews who bore witness to the coming of the Messiah.

How old are you, kid?

You mean they proclaimed that Christ had come, not "the coming" they all believed in Gods sovereignty and that's exactly what Calvin believed

Maybe you hated Jesus Christ but I never did. It’s funny, you proclaim the Gospels as useless then use arbitrary versus out of context to defend you’re incorrect theology. I hope you see your double standard hypocrisy on full display. I sure see it.

No just stating the truth. Do not want to appear like I think God allows people to be saved

Christ paid for every past sin, every present sin and every future sin so yes we will sin everyday of our lives until we drop dead. Christ's atonement was sufficient to cover all sin.
I think you're taking those scriptures out of their context, as God knows that it's impossible for any Christian to get through a few moments without sinning.

So, would you say you're never out of God's will? What's the purpose of the Judgment Seat of Christ?

This hurts your case bro. Again it makes you appear to boast of how great your people are. It’s not about God

I think god tells us this. Also remember. Who did Jesus hand out with the wise or the lowly?
