D- Delivered from being Dead in Trespasses and sin
1. And you were dead in your trespasses and sins, 2. in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience. 3. Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest. 4. But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5. even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6. and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly {places} in Christ Jesus, 7. so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8. For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, {salvation is} the gift of God; 9. not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.
Romans 5: 20. The Law came in so that the transgression would increase; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, 21. so that, as sin reigned in death, even so grace would reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 6:6. knowing this, that our old self was crucified with {Him,} in order that our body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin;
7. for he who has died is freed from sin. 11. Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus. 22. But now having been freed from sin and enslaved to God, you derive your benefit, resulting in sanctification, and the outcome, eternal life.23. For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8: 10. If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness.
II Corinthians 5: 19. namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
I Corinthians 15:56. The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law;
57. but thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Galatians 3:22. But the Scripture has shut up everyone under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe
Ephesians 1: 19. namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

How Christ-like of you , to trash and insult those with whom you disagree....

Folks, is posting trash and hate-filled screeds against Calvinism, because he cannot directly address the doctrines and stand. This has been proven time and again in these threads. I'd wager also that the links he provides have not been with permission, nor have the excerpts been posted with permission. In fact, many sites specifically forbid posting excerpts or linking to them without prior permission, so that they do not become associated with people such as , whose main purpose here seems to be stirring up strife, and division, which are in direct opposition to the Word of God, and the Fruits of the Spirit.

Posting an excerpt, depending on length, could fall into copyright infringement if the site forbids it but a link on a message board? They`d have an uphill climb with that one. A webmaster that doesn`t want full attention or certain internet users recommending visits then they have no business publishing on the internet.

None of which negates my point.

Hey, um, instead of bashing him and making accusations why don't you start arguing against his 'arguments'?

Primarily because they have addressed literally hundreds of times in these threads, and will be again, without a doubt.

My objection to is primarily because of his attitude, wherein he seems to think it's the "Christian thing to do" to taunt, ridicule and bear false witness against Calvinists. He makes statements which are demonstrably false, easily disproven, and yet he continues to make them.

never answers a question directly part politican

Thanks - that is exactly what they should be doing. They are the bashers. I make it no secret that I see Calvinism, TULIPOLOGY and RT as false. I see its proponents as false teachers. Now, likewise they see me the same way.

That being the case only an examination of the facts remains. I have listed the facts in the OP. They are solid with no twist.

Many of the proponents of the three are Cray babies, whiners, and just can't handle someone being strongly apposed to their views (false doctrines). They are constantly reporting post and whining and moaning vs. addressing the issue.

Thanks

there are aspects that are true ... can you name them

Showing some respect would be a good start, . As it is, you believe that your convictions release you from any need to be respectful and civil to those who, in good conscience, disagree with you. Although it may be hard for you to understand, those of us who disagree do so with good and solid reasons. Constantly aggravating people is not the way to gain supporters.

BTW, thanks for reducing the font. You do understand that large fonts and/or all caps, is the equivalent of shouting? None of us are hard of hearing here, and posting in giant fonts is not a spiritual exercise.. Do not confuse refusal to accept with deafness. You're not as right as you fancy yourself to be.

Well, bud, I might tell you the same thing. Stick to the issue, argue it. Not the person. That's called ad hominim and uncalled for in debate- and a logical fallacy. Which is what you just did.

Quite frankly, he'd rather engage in the ad hominems.
