“Methodism, also called the Methodist movement, is a group of historically related denominations of Protestant Christianity whose origins, doctrine and practice derive from the life and teachings of John Wesley. George Whitefield and John's brother Charles Wesley were also significant early...

“The Remonstrants (or the Remonstrant Brotherhood) is a Protestant movement that had split from the Dutch Reformed Church in the early 17th century. The early Remonstrants supported Jacobus Arminius, and after his death, continued to maintain his original views called Arminianism against the...

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but orthodox Christianity affirms Christ’s deity and the trinity, if you do not you’re not Christian. Something for you to consider. Islam, hinduism, Buddhism, VUDU, Luciferianism… all deny the deity of Christ. All satanic religions deny Christ’s deity because...

I’ve learned it’s best not to bother with the emotional one’s, the ones that call “the God of Calvin a monster”… These typically grew up in the church, made a profession of faith as a teen back in the 80’s then lived like heathens for a few decades. Now they’re on here babbling about being...

True. Persecution tends to thin the weeds.

I think you’re right, the vast majority of people who attend church don’t know Christ. In other words, the vast majority of Christians aren’t Christian. Pagans in the pulpit and in the pew. How did this happen?

Agreed. Why is the church such a mess today?

You’re fine. Pointing out someone’s ignorance on a topic isn’t name-calling, technically 😆

John 13:34-35 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. Unfortunately most churches don’t put enough emphasis on this great commandment to...

“The only thing that keeps us from choosing Jesus is the idea we can’t choose Jesus” I would say let’s see some scripture to back up that claim but I’m pretty sure everyone here knows that’s anti-biblical

Pretty sure there’s a “tell me a joke thread” or something like that, maybe you could find your joy over there.

Why so glum chum?

The nation of Israel is elect but not all who descend from Israel belong to Israel. Not really enough info. But language like, man’s free will and his ability to enter the body of Christ (aka salvation) by obeying, are typically used by Arminian types.

There are different variations of both, you’ll fit in somewhere you just don’t know it yet. 🙂 That’s my purpose in starting the thread, to encourage research. There’s an awful lot of people on here that have a lot to say on the topic without really understand what they’re saying. And without...

Just trying to encourage research. A year and a half after my conversion, after much scripture and contemplation, it was a blessing to discover there were many saints before that reached the same conclusions.

Most of these folks don’t know what they’re saying, don’t even understand their own doctrine. They deny being Arminian then affirm the 5 points of Arminianism 🤣🤣🤦‍♂️ Look people, there is no new theology or doctrine, it’s all been discussed. You’re either some form of Calvinist or some form of...

Human Free Will – This states that though man is fallen, he is not incapacitated by the sinful nature and can freely choose God. His will is not restricted and enslaved by his sinful nature. Conditional Election – God chose people for salvation based on His foreknowledge where God looks into the...

As the Methodist church is largely Arminian, the Catholic Church is largely semi-Pelagian (though officially denounced it). Point is, it seems a common denominator for apostate churches to accept some form of Pelagianism. Why command if man isn’t able to comply? For His glory. As I said in the...

Nope, Calvin stated man is totally depraved and unable. ——— Consider Wesley and his sinless perfectionism heresy, where do you suppose that came from? It’s the honest conclusion of an “Arminian”. If man is able to repent and believe as God commands then man must be able to adhere to all the...

Scripture clearly teaches God’s requirements and man’s inability to adhere, thus Christ. Yet the Arminian/Pelagian will claim, since God commanded it man must be able. It’s backwards, anti biblical reasoning
