Hi fellow believers
I wanted to reach out to a specific group tonight and ask Calvinists a question.So I was reading up on the puritanboard,and I noticed people years ago talking about John McMahon and some seemed very stern and aggressive,saying things like “whoever doesn’t believe Calvinism or the 5 points will go to hell” and I was suprised,I don’t deny the concept of election,perseverance of the saints,etc but I don’t call myself a Calvinist,I call myself a regular Christian.
1.)If it’s ok,does a person have to be a Calvinist to be saved?
2.)what is your opinion on Martin Luther?
3.I have OCD,autism/Asperger’s,and ADHD and right now I am worried because I’m afraid I’ve committed apostasy,and more is on the situation here:Anxiety attack worse than thanksgivings,and by far the worst in my life and ever to hit
but I want to know,I can’t live life without Jesus because I love him and I can’t live without the hope he provides and couldn’t live properly or function properly if I am not his elect or loved by him ,if in any case I have committed apostasy(which I know and hope I haven’t) can God forgive me and keep me within his family if I repent,(even though I don’t feel the need to or want,which worries me)but I choose to repent and turn to him?
