What verses are most difficult for Calvinism's TULIP?

[Jamie Russell CME]

1 Corinthians 10:13

“There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.”

and

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.
2And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
3And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
4For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;"

The first thing I thought of when I read the title of your thread was actually posted in the comment section under your video.
It stated: Every calvinist ever when their religion is exposed “you just don’t understand calvinism”.

I don't know how many times I've heard that one and the other word salads Calvinists can come up with.

1 Corinthians 10:13

2 Peter 2

The 2 Peter one is good for limited atonement, but I don't see any contradiction with EDD in 1 Cor. 10:13.

The strongest single verse I've seen against EDD is Isaiah 5:4, and I've heard you use it.

Nowhere in Scripture does it say Christ ONLY died for the elect:

Limited atonement is a farce

He died for ALL (1 Tim. 2:6).
He died for ALL MEN (Rom. 5:18; 1 Tim. 4:10).
He died for US ALL, for ALL OF US (Isa. 53:6).
He died for the UNGODLY (Rom. 5:6).
He died for CHRIST-DENIERS (2 Peter 2:1).
He died for SINNERS (Rom. 5:8).
He died for EVERY MAN (Heb. 2:9).
He died for MANY (Matthew 20:28).
He died for the WORLD (John 6:33,51; John 1:29 and John 3:16).
He died for the WHOLE WORLD (1 John 2:2).
He died for the WHOLE NATION of Israel (John 11:50-51).
He died for the CHURCH (Eph. 5:25).
He died for His SHEEP (John 10:11).
He died for ME (Gal. 2:20).

my commentary:

Thanks for sharing. I agree with you as a former Calvinist for 40 plus years.

What always bothers me is people seeing the teaching of OSAS and immediately attaching it to Calvinism.. so they think OSAS believers are Calvinists.

Somehow 'perseverance of the saints' is meant to be OSAS.. but like I typed before if it really is OSAS.. it would be 'preservation of the saved'

 

[Diserner]

I think one can make a strong logical connection between OSAS and Calvinism.

I do like me this screenshot though:

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.

The operative word being "whosoever", which proves it's a free will choice. Just as in, "Whosoever is 6 feet tall or taller may ride this ride."
