    Apology

    I apologize for beating up on the hyper-calvinists a few months ago who believe faith isn't required for justification. I, as a low/moderate 5 point calvinist think that the belief that faith in Christ isn't required for justification is not scriptural and indeed heretical but I should have...

    On man's cooperation vs. God's sovereignty

    I don't know about the exact wording, but it is common sense that if a being other than God was a total free agent and could do things without God's plans, teach God, and surprise God by his decisions then God's sovereignty would indeed be violated and things would be a mess. Here's a great...

    Free Will Baptists

    Calvinism: Breaking the law of love

    The question is all of who? The bible is clear that some people will go to hell. Se we know that not all will be saved. Using the law of non-contradiction we can see that all here means all of the elect.

    Things are only good because God who defines what good is said it was good. God is the definer of good. Your mormon neighbor may do things that to you look good. However, you are not the omniscient judge to know his heart. HIs deeds are only truely good if they are godly. If he is just doing...
