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

    you mention the will of man in Jacob and his legal works but fail to realise that God's eection was made before they were born and could do anything. Rom 9:11 (for the children not yet being born, nor having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not...

    the parable was given as a warning to the many who hear the Word and never bear fruit and endure to the end and be saved as was the case of those mentioned below. Most who call themselves Christians today have never been regenerated or are false converts. 1Jn 2:19 They went out from us, but...

    the revealed Word of God is Scripture which was sealed before the end of the first century and its revelation was made known to those to whom it was given to write it as confirmed below by Paul himself. 1Co 11:23 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord...

    Did Jesus Die on The Cross for The Just/Elect/Saved Whose Names Are Written in The Book of Life OR

    I have never said I am part of a theological denomination and absolutely object to some of the doctrines of those who call themselves Reformed as I have already explained with NCT which is not a denomination but an overall understanding of Scripture which the Doctrines of Grace are and you will...

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

    If you were consistent in your theology you would know that not all are chosen for salvation even though the Gospel is commanded to be proclaimed to all for to the elect it is an aroma of life unto life and to the reprobate it is an aroma of death unto death (2 Cor 2:15-17). The Scriptures make...

    Did Jesus Die on The Cross for The Just/Elect/Saved Whose Names Are Written in The Book of Life OR

    From the perspective of man there are those who indeed seem to do good but from God's perspective all of the good that man seems to do is simply filthy rags before Him (Isa 64:6). Sin is not simply what a person does but what a person is. People sin because they are sinners and all who sin do so...

    I sincerely hope your "Bah" comment was not related to the truth of Scripture and instead was at the revelation of what John Wesley wrote to his brother as quoted below for you to contemplate. Tomkins quotes at length “a most extraordinary letter [from John Wesley] to Charles in 1766” in which...

    A supposed free will that is enslaved to its cursed nature is not a free will at all. The parody below typifies those who have your mindset.

    why have you not replied to what I said below? Please show me what I said was false rather than go off on tangents. you utterly ignore the abundant Scriptures that show that no man seeks after or chooses God without God first choosing them. Man can not and does not want to choose God because he...

    did you build a strawman because you have absolutely no response to the points that were made?

    my point was that many say they believe and have assurance in Christ but look either in part or in full to themselves rather than cling only to the person and work of Christ for their salvation.

    dead means not alive and because man is spiritually dead to God he needs life and that life is only found in Christ.

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

    you do not yet understand that God's goodness is also found in His perfectly holy love for justice which is the foundation of the cross of Christ wherein righteous mercy is only given because justice was satisfied and wrath was propitiated in Him. HIs name is the LORD (Sovereign Ruler) JESUS...

    God's house will be packed indeed with those who are redeemed and by grace brought forth the fruits of the Spirit which only those that are planted in the good soil do. Men only find the way to life because they are led to it and not because they found it themselves for Scripture confirms there...

    No one is justified by faith in and of itself but by grace through faith in the blood of Christ (Romans 3-5). Those who belong to your man-centred theology think that faith is something that man does within himself and that God therefore saves men upon that condition when Paul clearly boasted...

    if you choose not to submit to Scripture then this conversation is over for this is the reason it is given. 2Ti 3:16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 2Ti 3:17 that the man of God may...

    God is Sovereign Exo 15:18; 1Chr 29:11-12; 2Chr 20:6; Psa 22:28 He exercises that sovereignty in actively ordaining everything Deu 32:39; 1Sam 2:6-8; Job 9:12; Job 12:6-10; Psa 33:11; Psa 115:3; Psa 135:6; Isa 14:24; Isa 45:7; Act 15:18; Eph 1:11 Including matters of “chance” Pro 16:33; 1Ki...

    Jesus confirmed that only those who are born again can see the kingdom of God. Faith is the fruit of them that re born again lest you make faith in which someone can boast and therefore destroy the truth of grace. All men are without excuse for all are given general revelation and natural law...
