If everyone had perfect recall and everyone read every post then perhaps you might have a point
But seeing as those are doubtful, repetition is called for when there is a post which is contrary to what is believed regarding libertarian free will

Yes there is no doubt about it. Would you say the biblical theology is man's opinion of what the Bible teaches?

26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.

Sorry. There must be some exhaustive history of Mary's entire life of which I am unaware.

Theology is the study of God. So the question is who and what is God like ? We find out by reading what God has declared about Himself in Scripture. We read what Jesus said about the Father and what He taught us to be like as His followers. When we see Jesus we see who and what God is like and how He interacts with sinners. There are many "misconceptions" about who/what God is like in many systematics, denominations, christianity, RC, protestant reformers, ECF's etc..........Not trying to ruffle your feathers but aren't they all?

One for example is God is to Holy to look upon sin, be in the presence of sin or with sinners. Tell Jesus that lol. There are many many more misconceptions about God too. This is just one or many.
hope this helps !!!

Yes that definitely helps. Also note that attempts to go beyond the original writings to reconstruct the oral tradition behind them are the province of the form of biblical criticism known as tradition criticism better known as man-made theology.
I was informed yesterday by one of the members that you were a Calvinist for 40 years and were able to walk away from it. I'd love to hear about that. Is that posted anywhere on this forum?

So here is what happened. Like the example I gave above about "misconceptions" about God within "Christendom" about sin, the sinner and God I started asking many other questions about what I have been taught from the pulpit and from many books I read and things I had believed about God and took for granted they were true "assumptions/ presuppositions " about God.
This led me into the whole sin/sinner issue about God and I started questioning who/what God is like with such things as the gospel and the atonement.
One of the things I began to question was God, the sinner/sins and the atonement. PSA ( Penal Substitution Atonement ) is one of those things I took a deep dive into and it led me into writing a thesis paper on the topic. In turn with my search for truth it led me out of believing PSA. From there I questioned the other things I had believed which was TULIP. When I lined up PSA with Gods character, nature, attributes it did not line up and I found out the same things with TULIP. PSA was developed by those who believed TULIP- the 2 go hand in hand together as a package, a systematic theology.
Here is my paper below. I'm still working on it and will be expanding all my points with many more references in support.

Thanks for taking the time to share that with me I'll definitely take a look at your paper. There's are few things about Calvinism that I have a problem with myself. But I'm sure that's true with every man-made theology.

The regenerate elect shall hear [spiritually] and believe, thats Gods purpose Acts 15:7
7 And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.
