Some day, you may realize how absurd and contradictory this Calvinist theory is. Paul never said to wait for God to give repentance to people. Calvinists assert that when God commands something, nobody can obey it, and only happens if God grants that obedience to a person. How does God decide...

You are merely quoting AI in your reply. AI is sycophantic — it replies to your prompts with what it thinks you want to hear, All gospel preaching in the Bible was “repent and believe in Jesus”, never “hope that God will force regeneration and repentance on you, so you can believe in Jesus”...

Wrong. God never wills people to be sinners. That would make God the author of sin. 1 Timothy 2:3,4 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. No Bible verse says God is hate. Bible says...

You actually say “God is not love.” You say you do not know what love is: “if God is love, whatever that means, worldly, carnal, etc.” God is holy. Holy means completely different from sinners. Holy means other than common, vulgar, tainted, polluted, stained, corrupted, wicked. The primary...

I investigated RB Thieme quite a while ago. His name was mentioned on a forum, some praising him, others warning against him. I have googled “[Bible teacher name] controversy” for every pastor and teacher I have ever liked or heard about. This is standard procedure for me now and it has been a...

If you google something like “errors of RB Thieme”, you will find many opinions about him. It is worth investigating what others have said about Thieme. https://www.rlhymersjr.com/Online_Sermons/2005/072405PM_ThiemeAndMacArthur.html Rich Keller M.Div., November 2019 — Many modern-day...

Hal Lindsey dedicated his Late Great Planet Earth to Thieme who was antinomian. The type of antinominanism can be gaged from Lindsey's dictum that if you look to the Bible for a command about what you should or should not do, then you are not walking in the Spirit. Some followers of Thieme made...

You did not quote the verse, you just gave a reference to it. But it does not say God is torturing them. Sin and conscience are what torments sinners. Matthew 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and...

Quote a verse that says God is torturing souls in hell. Does the Calvinist version of God torture people? What torments souls in hell is their conscience now fully awakened. Weeping and gnashing of teeth is never said to be provoked by God. Psalm 136:1: "Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He...

Your words and thinking are so scrambled, they make no sense. Sinners reject the light because they love darkness. So if they never repent and turn to the light, they will remain in darkness forever. There cannot be a “place like heaven for them to suffer in”. Your unbiblical imagination...

Yes, of course God loves that person, but God hates their sin, which they could have had forgiven if they by free will trusted the sacrifice of Christ for their sins.

Yes, God’s love and mercy endures forever. But if someone by free will decides to remain in darkness, and rejects God, He must lovingly allow them to be separate from Him. He does not stop loving them. God hates sin, but Jesus died for the sins of humanity, so even sin cannot keep people from...

A person goes to hell because they have designed their soul to be compatible with hell and incompatible with heaven. It would be unloving to force a damned soul into heaven, where it would not fit in with peace, goodness, self-control, and joy.

If you think it is correct to exalt righteousness above love, you are wrong. Righteousness without love was the mode of the Pharisees. 1 John 4:8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 1 Corinthians 13:13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the...

None of these verses talk about obeying Torah. “Gospel of the Grace of God” is not being under the Mosaic law, we go far beyond it as we walk in the Spirit. Paul convinced them about Jesus from the law of Moses and from the prophets. He was not convincing them to obey the law of Moses, he...

My 2nd wife and I were in our 50s when we got married. Both of us were divorced, with marital disasters behind us. There was a little friction, but even though we were very strong willed and independent, our married life was blissful most of the time. We delighted in each other. Looking for a...

Genesis 6:5 is referring to the world near the time of Noah’s flood, not humanity of all time periods. If unsaved people cannot respond to God, why did Jesus preach “repent and believe the gospel”? Mark 1 14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel...

Thanks for posting this rebuttal of those who say Jesus preached a kingdom gospel and Paul preached a mystery gospel, or Peter preached a gospel for the Jews and Paul preached a different gospel for the gentiles.

You are slandering me and bearing false witness. I do not say that Christ’s work is insufficient. Each person must accept the sacrifice of Christ on the cross for it to be effective for their soul. God does not force salvation on anyone, like you seem to believe.

Keep displaying your arrogant narcissism. You must be a babe in religion, just beginning and proud of how smart you think you are. Only God knows how much you obey the commands of Christ in the midst of your grandiose theological posing. Maybe someone will be impressed with how great you are.
