Refuting effectually caused faith

Limited atonement​

Limited atonement is the easiest reformed doctrine to refute, as there are clear and explicit scriptures (not parables, nor proverbs) but plain speech that state the complete opposite.

Which is: Christ did, in fact, pay for the sins of the whole world. That he accomplished an unlimited atonement, made available to anyone who wants to believe.

Instead, limited atonement of Calvin states that Jesus did not pay for the sins of the whole world, but rather that he only paid for the sins of “his people.” I will quote R. C. Sproul’s own mouth (leading Calvinist) as he makes his best case for this retarded view of the cross:

R. C. Sproul: “I prefer not to use the term limited atonement because it is misleading. I rather speak of definite redemption or definite atonement, which communicates that God the Father designed the work of redemption specifically with a view to providing salvation for the elect, and that Christ died for His sheep and laid down His life for those the Father had given to Him” (https://www.ligonier.org/blog/tulip-and-reformed-theology-limited-atonement/).

And in keeping with Calvinism’s slitherous approach, he refuses to give a straight answer. Instead, he uses many words and “fair sounding speech” to euphemize the obvious implications of his heresy. Key phrases like “definite redemption” or “definite atonement” are weak attempts to implant positive associations with Calvinism’s doctrine of: Christ’s not paying for everyone’s sins.

Limited atonement teaches that Christ is not the savior of the whole world. He thinks that he can smuggle in this heresy by softening the initial blow, with softer sounding words. This reminds me of what is written in the Bible, when the people of Israel did not want the truth, instead they wanted to hear “smooth things”:

Isaiah 30

10 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:

Romans 16

17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.

18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.

Colossians 2

8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

Jude 1

4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

2 Peter 2

1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

18 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.

The passage from 2 Peter (above) is very revealing. It tells of how certain men crept in unawares. “Crept in unawares,” which is exactly how Calvinism operates, with their willingness to befriend the simple, in hopes of later indoctrinating them. They creep in with their subtlety, and great swelling words of vanity. They come with their mild mannerisms, tame look, clean-cut appearance, with their degrees in theology, and oh how they love to play word games. I am talking semantics, not scrabble, though they would love to enter your home for a board game. They come with their subtlety to bring in damnable heresies: even denying the Lord that bought them! So, whoever these men are that Peter warns about, they deny Christ “who bought them.” Therefore, there are men whom Christ purchased with his own blood, that are condemned because of their twisting of scripture and denial of Christ. This is impossible if limited atonement were true, because God only bought his own people, according to Calvin. Therefore, this passage speaks expressly about Calvinism, in a very prophetic manner I might add.

As I was researching the origins of this limited atonement, it seems as though Calvin himself did not hold to this doctrine. Or at least he did not explicitly and succinctly draw any lines on this matter. Instead, what I find is that the Calvinists, in their pseudo-intellectual fervor, have come to the conclusion of limited atonement on the basis of deductive reasoning. Which sounds all fair and good, except their premises are all wrong. Calvinists are not committed to truth, but to their doctrine. Therefore, they are blind to the error in the preceding TU of their acrostic TULIP. In any case, as much as I hate Calvin, I must admit that he himself seemed to believe that Jesus Christ tasted death for the whole “human race.” But I cannot be sure what he means by this, as you know the manner of Calvinists. They use words that they ought not, to intentionally imply falsehoods, with the intent to later seduce you with their sick statement of faith. This is the definition of a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

What you will hear on this point is that “Christ died for all men without distinction, but not for all men without exception.” Which is another one of their cultish slogans they are likely to throw in your face. Which means that whenever the Bible says that God “died for the whole world,” or “whosoever,” it really means for any race, for any kind of human being.

Calvinists are really showing their true colors now! Whenever the Bible is read by a Calvinist, they do so with the backdrop of racial bigotry and exclusionism. And so, the great message of the Calvinist god has is that he died for all kinds of people.

My sarcastic response – Oh what Grace! You mean he didn’t die for everyman, as the Bible says? Instead, he only died for every kind of man?

Genuine Calvinist answer – isn’t it beautiful? What a great message, right? Not everyone can be saved, Oh the depths of God! Oh the love of God, shown towards the elect! The elect might be from any race! What a gift!

Clearly, the Calvin lover that came up with this defense must have struggled with some kind of prejudice or racial bigotry. And when the devil pointed that out, he thought it was the Holy Spirit guiding him into all truth. And then the ah hah moment came: “I must deny myself” thought the Calvinist.

… think, Calvinist think… what would Calvin do?…. It must be that god might elect some of those colored folks as well! As much as I hate to admit it! I was wrong to assume that God foreordained that the saved would be born white, that is wrong! I must deny myself. I must accept the possibility that God picks men from any race! That’s the grace of God! Of Course!

Only someone who is thoroughly brainwashed would accept this as a defensible position. God couldn’t care less about anyone’s race. Why? Because he made everyone. He could “of these stones raise up children unto Abraham” (Matthew 3:9). Which is literally what happened if you believe in theistic evolution, by the way. The Bible says, “For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?” (1 Corinthians 4:7). The Bible says that God does not respect any man’s person (Romans 2:11). Let alone race. Please, any retard would know this.

So, I will leave it at that for the heretical position. This limited atonement is so feeble, that it doesn’t even get off the ground.

I will now list some of the verses in the Bible about the unlimited atonement that God has made available to every single human being. It could have been that all are saved, but some choose not to be saved. That’s on them, that’s their choice.

1 John 2

2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

Colossians 1

28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus

John 1

9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

Hebrews 7

9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.

John 3

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

John 11

26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

Acts 2

11 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Romans 10

13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

1 John 1

9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.

Revelation 22

17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

John 5

9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.

10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son

11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

John 4

And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.

Timothy 4

10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.

1 John 4

4 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

These scriptures speak for themselves. Not only that, but there are no explicit scriptures that Calvinists may appeal to, in order to say that God did not pay for the sins of the whole world. They do not have a single verse that says, “Jesus Christ did not taste death for everyman.” But we do have a scripture that says, “he by the grace of God should taste death for every man” (Hebrews 2:9).

Any Calvinist reading this, I challenge you: give me 1 verse that says the following:

  1. Jesus Christ did NOT taste death for every man.
  2. Jesus Christ is NOT the savior of the whole world.
  3. Jesus Christ is NOT the propitiation for the sins of the whole world.
  4. God so loved the elect, that only the elect may believe and be saved.
  5. The Spirit and the bride say come, who whosoever is elect, let him come. And whosoever is forced, force him to take of the water of life forcefully.
Please, Calvinist, provide me with explicit scriptures that say any one of the above statements. Waiting…

Calvinists will give account for their blasphemy. God will ask them: “Why should I pick you over someone else?” Calvinists have no response, because their own doctrine says that they are unconditionally elected. God’s response: “Therefore, neither will I pick you.”

Calvinism is a trap. The devil is setting up Calvinists to be denied Heaven when they die. The devil hates everyone, including his own. That’s why the devil is tricking Calvinists, he is setting them up for Hell, on the day of judgement.

Limited atonement is completely unscriptural. Salvation is extended to every single human being that has ever lived, or ever will live.
 

Irresistible Grace​

Irresistible grace is the idea that once God unconditionally elects someone, that person is given irresistible grace. Which means that a person could not have rejected the call to salvation. God draws them in, and they are incapable of resisting.

I do not understand why Calvinists believe this. There is no reason for this to be true, other than to further shoe-horn-in hard determinism and fatalism into their religion. Which is to say that God has meticulous control over everything, including sins and salvation. This idea is completely preposterous and alien to the scriptures. Only in the vain writings of Calvin would you see this kind of thing espoused.

With that said, I will present a few scriptures that clearly show people resisting God’s grace. Because, as I have said, people have the freedom to believe or to not believe. There are no strings attached, and no “irresistible grace” to speak of.

Acts 7

51 Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye.

This verse alone proves that a man is able to resist the Holy Ghost. But I will quote even more.

Deuteronomy 10

16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.

17 For the Lord your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward:

18 He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.

19 Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

Before I break down this passage, I want to point out how Calvinists, and a lot of people in Christianity, would go about striving over vain words. Like they would read this passage out of Deuteronomy and say, this is different from God’s election in Christ. Really? Can we not understand God’s character from the passage above? God chose Israel to bring forth the Lord Jesus Christ. God protected the nation in order to ensure that Christ would come into the world and pay for the sins of everyman. It was never about partiality, racism, or nationality. It was always about keeping God’s promise to Abraham, that the whole world would be blessed through him.

Why Abraham? Because he believed God and it was counted to him for righteousness.

But no… Calvinists would rather go to the Greek, the Hebrew, to Calvin, to Spurgeon, to any means to deny God’s goodness. Jesus Christ says that they “strain out a gnat, and swallow a camel” (Matthew 23:24). They deny the very heart of God, Jesus Christ, by their wordplay and semantics.

For example, John 3:36 says, “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.” A normal person would read this and see that anyone can believe and be saved, and anyone who does not is damned. But not Calvinists. When Calvinists read this, they see it as “those whom God irresistibly draws are saved.” And they will do all manner of literary gymnastics to force their doctrine into the text. If we are to really split hairs on this matter, then according to John 3:36, only men are saved and not women. Why? Because it says, “He that believeth on the son hath everlasting life.” It does not say “she.” Therefore, we conclude that women cannot have everlasting life.

…You see how retarded the traditions of Calvin are. Calvinists search the scriptures, actually they don’t. They search the writings of Calvin and they refuse to believe on Jesus Christ. They will do anything to prove their doctrine right, including going to Hell. Because some Calvinists will go to Hell for having never believed on the real Jesus Christ.

John 5

38 And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.

39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.

Anyways, getting back to the text of Deuteronomy. The point of that passage is that Israel is an allegory of the “elect” in that they are chosen of God. But what is God’s attitude towards the “unelect?” People outside of Israel? He loves them. He loves the stranger, the unchosen. That is why God, “regardeth not man.” And “executeth Judgement for the widow and the orphan.” Why them? Because they are helpless. God does not leave the helpless defenseless. Calvinism teaches that God does not defend the helpless. God overlooks the vast sea of people who cannot believe on him. This is alien to God’s character. God will not unilaterally regenerate one person, and not another. If he did, he would do it for everyone equally. And to top it all off, God told Israel not to be “stiff-necked,” he is telling them to align their will with his own. This statement is meaningless under Calvinism. This whole passage in Deuteronomy is a testimony against Calvinism and irresistible grace.

Another passage about man’s will thwarting God’s will (because God willingly respects man’s will) is when Christ stood over Jerusalem and mourned over their unwillingness to believe.

Matthew 23

37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

Another example of someone resisting the grace of God is Judas.

John 6

70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?

71 He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.

Clearly, God picked Judas. But Judas refused to believe on Christ. He was unbelieving and betrayed Christ. Christ said he picked the 12. Jesus loved Judas, but Judas would not believe in the love of Christ, which is why he killed himself. Because had he believed in the forgiveness of God, he would have had hope, and would not have killed himself. But lo, God’s grace is resistible, hence Judas’ self-inflicted demise by way of resisting the grace of God.

There are many more examples about people not doing what God would have them do. In fact, the entire Bible, the whole history of mankind, is one of resisting God’s will. There are countless examples of God’s chosen people being stiff-necked, resisting his provision and grace. Irresistible grace is completely untenable and foreign to the scriptures, as are all of the points of Calvinism.
 

Perseverance of the Saints​

Here is a good summary of Calvinism’s perseverance of the saints:

“The doctrine of the perseverance of the saints does not maintain that all those who profess the Christian faith are certain of heaven. It is saints – those who are set apart by the Spirit – who persevere to the end. It is believers – those who are given true, living faith in Christ – who are secure and safe in Him. Many who profess to believe fall away, but they do not fall from grace for they were never in grace. True believers do fall into temptations, and they do commit grievous sins, but these sins do not cause them to lose their salvation or separate them from Christ” (Louis Berkhof from Systematic Theology, pg.546)

This last point does not enrage me as all the others, as this is a common problem that many Christians deal with. And that is of assurance. You see, many denominations feel as though there must be significant change in the believer’s conduct and daily life in order to validate their faith. This is nothing short of works. The P in TULIP is works-based theology, which is completely wrong.

What is hypocritical about Calvinism’s version of works is that it completely denies the assurance a believer may have in God’s grace. Because it says, “Many who profess to believe fall away, but they do not fall from grace for they were never in grace.” What this means is that you really do not know if you are in grace or not. You cannot tell. Because you can be utterly deceived, your whole life, until you one day become guilty of a heinous act. That act proves that you are not persevering, and therefore you were never saved to begin with.

I sort of laugh at this. Because this really gets to the heart of Calvinism. Calvinism and reformed theology touts itself as being a doctrine of grace, a denomination that is completely opposed to works. And they love to debate other denominations on this point, yet they themselves are ensnared under the same system of works. Calvinists will snark and snap at works based salvation, but are happy to include works as evidence of salvation. Why? It’s because they do not really care about the morality or truth behind it all, they only care about harmonizing Calvin with scripture. So, they are fine with works, so long as it does not step on the toes of their little “g” god Calvin. They really do not care about whether they can perform the works, or not. They do not really care about God’s perfection that cannot accept man’s works. This is hypocrisy at its finest.

Because if perseverance in good works is proof of salvation, then you cannot know that you are saved. Especially since Calvinists believe everyone to be totally incapable of believing, and that God unconditionally picks some over others. And especially since God only died for some people and not all people, and those who he died for, he unilaterally gives salvation to. Because of all these preceding points, it is impossible to have confidence in salvation, it is impossible to have confidence in Christ.

Therefore, Calvinists do not have assurance of salvation, they must continue to do good works to prove to themselves that they are saved. Yet there is always the possibility that they would fall away at the last second. And if they do, that would prove that their salvation was never there.

Therefore, the only way for a Calvinist to be sure that he is saved, is to have unyielding confidence in his own performance. His confidence rests in his flesh, and bodily works, which constantly come short of the glory of God.

That is why Calvinists are usually high-minded narcissists, that love themselves. You would have to be, if you believe that your good works prove that God is in you.

The truth is that there are no good works that could prove anything. Nobody is good enough to attain salvation, let alone persevere in it.

Luke 12

26 If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest?

Luke 17

10 So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.

And what about Paul? He wrote most of the new testament. Surely, he would have good works. Surely, he would have signs of persevering in the faith. What does he have to say about himself?

1 Timothy 1

15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

Oh, he must not be persevering. Where is his confidence? Is it in his works? No, it is in that “faithful saying” that Christ came to save sinners. I am a sinner; therefore, he came to save me. That is where the confidence is to be had. Not in perseverance of the saints. It is in the preservation of the savior.

Philipians 3

3 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe.

2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.

3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.

4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more:

5 Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;

6 Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless.

7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.

And finally, what is the evidence of our salvation? Christ. That he rose from the dead. He is our evidence of salvation.

John 20

27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.

28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.

29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

God is the proof of salvation, not the works of man. This problem of works is explained in much greater detail in other sections of this book\blog. Or read Galatians.

Conclusion​

I hope that this has been a venom-filled and articulate evisceration of the doctrine of devils many call Calvinism. I pull no punches and want to make clear that Calvinism is not an in-house issue of Christianity. Calvinism is fundamentally opposed to all that is called good. Calvinism is the most perverse snare that the devil has laid out before us. It is so patently false, unscriptural, and so easily refuted that I truly do not understand how widely accepted it has become. There are many teachers, pastors of mega-churches, and even seminaries that teach this theology as though it were an acceptable interpretation of scripture. On the contrary, Calvinism spits on God, calls God a liar, makes a mockery of the Bible, turning the entire narrative of scripture on its head. God hates Calvinism with a white-hot hatred. They make God the author of evil, and they say that it’s for his glory. Calvinists treat their doctrine as though it were the “strong meat” of the word. As though only elite\mature Christians, those that are intellectually superior, can stomach their teaching. As if faith is solely a matter of the mind.

Calvinism is a contest to see who can fashion for themselves the most abhorrent view of God, and then love it, and call it good. The more satanic\sadistic the idol they make, the more spiritual the Calvinist is. Do you know what God has to say about that? “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” (Isaiah 5:20). And they fancy themselves intellectuals, because they have been able to orchestrate some system of theology. As if their acronyms, flow charts, logic twisting, and gnat straining do God justice. As if their 20, 30, or even 40 years of theological study means anything to God. Even if there were a million reformed books out there, with a million years of reformed history, they are all counted for nothing. Why? Because God is infinite. “God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar” (Romans 3:4). If God were to condescend knowledge of himself, of his message, he would bring them all the way down to within reach of anyone. He would not condescend all the way down to within the grasp of man, but stop just shy of 30 years’ worth of study… please. Christ said, “Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 18:3).

God made it easy for everyone, because God is good, and loves everyone. He is not evil. I can’t believe that statement has to be explicitly written down in this treatise on Calvinism, which is supposed to be a Christian denomination. Calvinism is of the devil, and I caution anyone who takes part in this twisted cult. Hell, even Satanists are better than Calvinists. Why? Because they have more truth in them than Calvinists do: at least Satanists know who they serve. I bet that the real reason why Calvin came up with this theology of meticulous control, is because of all his failed attempts to evangelize people. He must have shown his TULIP to people, only to be spat upon with disgust. And because he is blinded by his own self-aggrandizement, he could never find fault with his own theology. Then an idea struck in his mind,

“AH HA! only the chosen ones can accept God! That’s why they reject me!”

And so now we have his demonic doctrine, that appeals to narcissists and control freaks.

Never once did it cross his sick mind that God might actually be good, that He may actually love everyone, that He might actually respect man’s will. No, that’s not possible. Because that would mean Calvin was wrong. And we know Calvin is the elect of elects, and the little “g” god, Calvin could not possibly be wrong. And all throughout this weirdo’s life, it never dawned on him that he might have another Jesus, another gospel. Not even once I bet, as he beckoned the Geneva courts to burn Servetus (a physician) at the stake with green wood. Green wood, which is slow burning wood, to make the burning of that innocent man all the more agonizing. Why did Calvin order this? Because of some disagreement on the nature of the trinity, which Calvin himself did not understand. It wasn’t enough to sentence Servetus to death, but Calvin wanted him to suffer even more, to burn him at the stake with green wood. What a sick, illegitimate son of a bitch coward.

Calvin thought he was doing God service by killing Servetus. Only a weak, helpless god, such as the god of Calvin needs defending in this manner. Indeed, Christ said, “yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service” (John 16:2). Did Calvin ever once pick up a Bible? What was this man reading? How could he not see these things in the book? I swear, when you read Calvin’s writings, it is nothing but a bunch of double talking, flowery, opinionated garbage. Nothing he says makes sense. And those things that are exceptionally senseless, Calvinists say are a matter of the spirit; and that the natural man cannot receive the things of the spirit. Really?!! Which spirit? Please tell me.

Because nothing Calvin says comes from the Bible. Christ said that the words he speaks, they are spirit and they are life. So why do you let Calvin take the spirit of God, his words, and play semantics with them?! I spit on Calvin. There is nothing in the world that I hate more than Calvinism. I hope that is clear. Someone had to say it. There are too many cowardly and unbelieving Christians that are too fearful to say such things. They let themselves get bullied by these wordsmithing, lying, double talking, doubleminded, snakes of Hell. Most Christians are bullied into accepting the devil of Calvin, because they are afraid that God may actually be like that. Why don’t you read the Bible and search these things out yourself? Instead of allowing this idol of Calvin to deface the real God that you believe in? If you just read the book of John, Calvinism would have been irreparably destroyed by the 12th verse.

And I understand what all this sounds like. It sounds like an angry rant, from a disgruntled TULIP hater. And yes, that’s exactly what this is. I refuse to address Calvinism in a thorough, exegetical fashion. That would be far too charitable for Calvinism. Calvinism is not an intellectually stimulating doctrine, nor is it an honest exegesis of scripture. This doctrine does not even state its own assumptions as to what time is, God’s relationship to time, what free will is, what consciousness is; how God orders things with all of these variables in play. Calvinism is so retarded, so sloppy, so lousy, that I would be doing it service to address it on a verse by verse basis. I will not validate this cult by addressing it in that manner. The only reason why I spoke as much as I have on TULIP is because of how ubiquitous this teaching is. And it is so disgusting, so repugnant, that I have to destroy it. “For necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!” (1 Corinthians 9:16) Besides, Calvinism is a dishonest gnat straining, camel swallowing fest of death. They would look for a comma, a semi colon, a false assumption, anything, by any means, to deny God’s goodness. And even then, they are wrong in their exegesis.

If you want someone who would clearly address each of their twisting of verses, I would point you to Leighton Flowers. He has addressed these issues, in this manner, with his books. He is much kinder than I am, in this way. My purpose here is to just destroy the works of the devil, and to present the truth, in the most efficient way possible. I don’t have the time, nor the will to do battle with satan’s puppets. This is me quickly stepping on a cockroach. Leighton Flowers is like a professional exterminator, when it comes to Calvinism.

Again, one more time, let’s take a step back and look at the motives for Calvinism. What is the point of Calvinism? The only point in Calvinism is for Calvinists to prove that God did not pay for everyone’s sins. It’s to exalt some men over others. It’s to deny hope for some people. It’s to create doubt in the hearts of men. It’s to prove that Calvinists are smarter than you, because they have some kind of insight as to God’s ways. The point of Calvinism is to sow to the flesh of man. It’s to commend man’s wisdom, by revealing some hidden or counter-intuitive facet of God. The hope of Calvinism (and it’s a dead hope) is that Calvin knows the scriptures a little better than most.

Is that it? Is that what they want? That they may be regarded highly of men? “Verily I say unto you, They have their reward” (Matthew 6:5). And at what cost? At the cost of destroying the work of God. At the cost of denying some people entry into Heaven.

There are no redeeming qualities of Calvinism. There is nothing compelling about this pretentious, deformed, perverted cult. The only compelling thing about this doctrine, is the involuntary parasympathetic retching that happens as a result of hearing these things. It is completely vain, illogical, unscriptural, ungodly, and evil to the core. Disgusting. If there was ever a person who actually deserves to burn in Hell, it’s John Calvin.

I will close out of this section by saying that the only hope for a Calvinist is if they were saved before they had ever entered this cult. The best-case scenario for a Calvinist is that they were saved long ago. And that they had later wasted their entire lives, living out a false religion, worshiping the devil. That’s the base case scenario. Of course, Hell is the other (more likely) outcome.

If you are a Calvinist, I suggest you stop blaspheming God. Repent ye, and believe the gospel.

John 5:24

In Jesus name,

Amen.

I hope that this has been a venom-filled and articulate evisceration of the doctrine of devils many call Calvinism. I pull no punches and want to make clear that Calvinism is not an in-house issue of Christianity.

Yes, it is venom filled and not the sort of thing I would expect from Christ Jesus.

Nothing has changed. You Calvinists are still Universalists in light of John 12:32. :LOL:

And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all to myself.” (John 12:32)

Man by nature doesnt have the ability to believe in Jesus Jn 6:44,65


44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.

This does away with the evil false teaching of mans freewill to be able to believe in Jesus Christ, he must be effectually caused to have belief in Christ
