And? He's not a Calvinist and certainly not Reformed in his theology. More strawman arguments.
Moreover, I don't know how many times it has to be explained to you how many times the Reformed will come back to Romans 6 in this case. Paul explicitly and directly addresses any mistaken notion that our justification apart from our works is therefore a license to sin.
30% of those in the Southern Baptist Convention are Calvinists.
My point was also not against Calvinism alone but Protestantism.
Calvinists are Reformed Protestants. Most of all your Protestants hold to Once Saved Always Saved (Except for most Pentecostals, and or Charismatics). There may be a few small number of Protestants I may not know about who are for Sanctification (works, holy living, putting away sin) for salvation (after we are saved by God's grace), but I have not discovered any such group yet. Please be my guest. The majority of Protestants believe in OSAS, and or Belief Alone-ism. You have to prove that this is not the case.
You want Protestantism to be for works salvation (When this is not what the majority of Protestants believe in any way).
Besides, I have already shown to you that John MacArthur (Calvinist) has promoted a license for immorality in this thread already. He is not the only one. Mark Driscoll is another one. Also, I have talked with many Calvinists online over the many years, as well. In my experience or opinion: They preach a double message when it comes to holy living.
