Mike Winger's "Why I think Calvinism is Unbiblical"

Jesus said we can hear to reject or accept.

14 And if anyone will not receive you or listen to your words

16 “The one who hears you hears me, and the one who rejects you rejects me, and the one who rejects me rejects him who sent me.”

48 The one who rejects me and does not receive my words has a judge; the word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day.

There's literally not a single mention about our ears needing to be circumcised to hear.

But even if we go that route, Jesus said when people hear they are able to reject or accept. Which means, ears that have been opened/circumcised can still reject the Gospel.

Just recently I've seen several mentions in the Bible of man's ears needing to be circumcised ... and Jesus used the phrase "those with ears to hear" a number of times also. Given that the natural man rejects the things of God, how do you propose he suddenly becomes able to hear the Truth of the gospel message in order to choose to believe, when he is a slave to sin, loves his sin, suppresses the truth in unrighteousness, and is doing the will of the devil... all without any intervention from God?

If you read the verses I provided none of the verses before or after make any such claim.

But let's say they need to be circumcised. Jesus is still saying circumcised ears to hear can still freely reject Him. So I have no issue if we say all who hear the Gospel their ears have been circumcised because we know Jesus said those who hear still can accept or reject His words.

That means they understand what they are rejecting.

I thought you believed in harmonizing Scriptures. Anyways, I am not sure the gospel is understood by those who reject it, but I have never said anything against people having a choice. The issue seems to come down to whether or not people can make a choice in the affirmative without having their hearts circumcised. Is many here speak against it. And no that is not mentioned in every single verse either.

I am harmonizing. Those verses are Jesus' words that say people can hear and they can accept or reject. That means they can accept the Gospel or reject the Gospel.

How can you be harmonizing when you overlook ear and heart circumcision. Is not the gospel foolishness to those who are perishing?

I must get to work here; I will be back later

Jesus is God.
So everyone else must harmonize to Jesus' words not the other way around.

They can KNOW when they are truly saved, but can be deceived into thinking they are when they are not.

They may not know they are a false convert. Cameron is 100% right here. You asked if someone can " If someone comes forward and says they want to be saved. So we pray together, and they confess they are a sinner in need of Jesus as their Savior and they ask Him to come into their heart, you're saying they are not saved??
The answer is Yes! they can do all that and even think they are sincere when doling so, and NOT be saved. I did. I "felt it in my heart" at an alter call, went up front and repeated the prayer you're talking about, and was told to write down that date, I was saved. Even went a few weeks later to get baptized. I was not saved. So yes you can do what you said and NOT be saved. A prayer does not save us, our "decision" does not save us. ONLY God can save us.

That's why when I was saved, I did none of this. I was deceived into thinking I had already tried that "Christian thing", so when I hit my knees in the repentance God granted me I didn't recite a prayer, nor did I even call out for God or consider Him at all in this moment, when I hit my knees I knew and said 1 thing and 1 thing alone. "I can't do this anymore". I saw myself in all the glory we have in and of ourselves, I saw my self in truth, as powerless and pathetic as I truly was.

Look, I understand what you mean when you say what you're saying, and in theory what you say is sound. I'm not trying to act like what you are saying is wrong and you need to be corrected. I am just trying to share with you that doing that may be how God saves you, and I am in know way trying to suggest that we shouldn't always be trying to point others to the King and true reconciliation with our Creator. I am trying to point out that we can not guarantee people that once they say these certain words they are born again. That's just not true and we have to submit our way to Him completely, and this isn't a small easy thing to teach or do. Only His Spirit can do it and we have to be very mindful of that at all times.

God spoke of both. Do you not believe people can resist the Holy Spirit ,and why do you think they do?

Believers resist and grieve the Holy Spirit all of the time.
Sinners reject the Holy Spirit constantly.
Both can even Blaspheme the Holy Spirit.

Doesn't sound like you have made any distinction between believers and non-believers since "they do it all the time" and "constantly" is pretty much the same thing. But there is a distinction because believers have had their hearts circumcised. Some here have characterized that as God having kidnapped them. Do you agree with their view, or gratefully accept it as the fulfillment of a promise God made?

Even, when i do this conversation in real life where you save a lot of time in back-and-forth questions to understand someone's point or understanding of a topic, you hit a roadblock when people are caught without an answer to explain why they believe what they believe.
They just mentally block themselves and say "I don't want to talk about this anymore".
My Protestant friend at work, had a lot of mental blocks when i asked him questions about Salvation and i don't blame him because he's a victim of the whole Catholic Church in America syndrome.

Nevermind online via text where it becomes sort of impossible due to the length of time in responses and pages that you have to go through.

Because I don't follow some doctrine that emphasizes things outside of what Jesus said.

The Thief on the cross said to Jesus, "Remember Me." Jesus replied, "This Day You will be with Me for Eternity."

The Thief demonstrated what Jesus said in John 3:16, "Whosoever Believeth in Jesus has Eternal Life."

It's not a complicated thing, people either will believe or they won't.

Food for thought...

There was a man named Cornelius. He and all his family were devout and God-fearing; he gave generously to those in need and prayed to God regularly.

They certainly are

But the sheep of Matthew 25 are certainly not. Cannot possibly be.

Jesus addresses them "Come ye blest of MY Father ... " not YOUR Father or even the Father

They did not understand the Christ in you doctrine for they said "when saw we Thee enhungered or thirsty etc?"

But Jesus said "inasmuch as ye did it to one of the least these MY brethren ... " not YOUR brethren or even the brethren

"These My brethren ..." are the church.

We are taught by John that we are passed over from judgement to life so we will not be judged. Paul teaches us that when He comes to judge God will bring us with Him.

Fear of Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Who gives wisdom? Proverbs 2:6 says the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.

If God controls every decision that mankind makes then does He not control the mind of serial killers?

Without a shred of doubt.

The young girls that the serial killer kidnaps, rapes, tortures and murders.
While these young girls suffer that agony, begging for mercy and freedom.
The young girls are then, more than likely, sentenced to eternal damnation
after they are murdered.

It makes you want to worship God even more.
