What's Wrong with Calvinism?

[civic]

I did not write the thesauruses... I can provide from multiple ones.

@civic is 1000% correct on what he says.....

YOU have tunnel vision .... you are incapable of a reasoning thought.....

through or by means of mean exactly the same thing in the scripture.... I cannot help that someone translated a word and they all
jumped all over it.... likely because they all know that the meant the same thing in that verse.

Until God opens up the mind and heart we are stuck with our bias and prejudices regarding our beliefs. I know I had the blinders on defending Calvinism at all costs for several decades.

No kidding. Under the OC.

You addressed nothing

That statement was made during the earthly ministry of Christ.

And the promise of the Spirit was stated to be upon the glorification of Christ, which had not yet occurred, and was

dependent upon believing in Christ, who was not fully revealed in the old covenant

John 7:38–39 (KJV 1900) — 38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. 39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)

You are ignoring multiple facts and arguing for something that was never stated.

Where do you read that the Old Testament saints had experienced the kingdom of God spoken of?

Where do you read all Old Testament saints had the faith in Christ that the New Testament states is necessary for the indwelling of the Spirit?

Where do you read of all Old Testament saints who died joining God in heaven?

Where do you read all the Old Testament saints were born again?

Where?

Its called 2÷2. If Chrsit said you must be born again to see the kongdom of God. Where are the exceptions? What we can see is if they were not born again they did not see the kingdom of heaven. Now, were they the exception? How do they see the kingdom of heaven? Where does the Bible make that distinction?

Did you read?

That statement was made during the earthly ministry of Christ.

Hello

It was not made in the old covenant

So how did you address the following

And the promise of the Spirit was stated to be upon the glorification of Christ, which had not yet occurred, and was

dependent upon believing in Christ, who was not fully revealed in the old covenant

John 7:38–39 (KJV 1900) — 38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. 39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
