By his own actions...Ummm no he would be revealing he never had faith or repentance the gifts of Grace..
Okay. I’m sure you have a reason for posting that. Would you care to explain?7 Understand, then, that those who have faith are children of Abraham. 8 Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”[d] 9 So those who rely on faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
10 For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse....
Which doesn’t mean that faith itself isn’t a work.Showing the contrast Paul makes between faith and works.
Boom..!That's funny. So, one can have true faith and not be saved? Why would we be warned about falling away if it weren't possible? Oh, I know what you're gonna say. "We might not really be saved to begin with." Then, there would be no need of the warning, because we would be reprobates and it would be impossible for us to be saved. This is just one of the many illogical ideas that Calvinists promote. You pretty much have to leave your brain at the door to subscribe to this teaching.
Calvinist want their cake and to eat it.that makes no sense.
I thought Calvinist taught that faith was all Gods doing, that he irresistibly plants it in the elect? So how is it a work?
What did Jesus tell the people when they asked what work should they do?that makes no sense.

Why do you think it’s grave?Calvinist want their cake and to eat it.
Their error is grave and glaring.
I pray they see this soon...
The arrogance that says a member of the Elect is immune from the possibility of losing Grace...Why do you think it’s grave?
It’s not arrogance. It’s biblical. I think it could be considered arrogant to think that your good actions help secure your salvation.The arrogance that says a member of the Elect is immune from the possibility of losing Grace...
It’s a gift that we use. What’s the point of a gift if you don’t use it?You are contradicting your own teaching. Is faith a irresistible gift from God or is it a work of man? Just one more contradiction...
If James White commits murder tomorrow....But if it's irresistibly given, there's no work on our part at all. Plus, scripture makes a clear distinction between faith and works.
I’m not the one who didn’t answer.Around and around on the merry go round, just constant spinning with no answers.
