I would say calvinism contradicts scripture too and people whove fallen for a man made doctrine need to not only search all of scripture to see if things are so, but to pray and ask God for wisdom.
We are not to cling to any 'isms'. That is a man made philosophy. The bible,calls this vain philosophy, the arguments of men. We are to seek the FULL counsel of God, which means read the Bible, all of it, not just the bits john calvin or whoever picked out.
I am neither Calvinist nor Arminian. But take a middle ground position, I believe in election and predestination, as well as the free will of man and the sovereignty of God. I believe both are clearly taught in the scriptures.
BTW. Infant Baptism is definitely a sin. God hates manmade tradition that contradicts his word, in fact Jesus often confronted the Pharisees on it.
Acts chapter 8 is clear that belief is required for baptism. It's a false teaching damning souls to hell, and it's really a false gospel.
I have had multiple protestants tell me about their infant baptism when trying to ask them if they will go to heaven when they die. Infant Baptism is a form of idolatry, it's giving the qualities of Jesus Christ to water, It's extremely wicked and evil.
Well, infant baptism is practised by presybeterians who are all calvinists, and catholics especially. […]
actually, until the blind child analogy, I was thinking, this person gets it.Calvinism is just wrong............
Let's see.....according to Calvinists.....
"whosoever will" really means "whosoever is elect"
"all" really means "all the elect"
"not willing that ANY should perish" really means "not willing that ANY of the elect should perish"
"God so loved the world" really means "God so loved the elect"
Christ died ONLY for the elect
God predestined some people to hell, without any chance of salvation
God sends people to hell for eternity for not accepting something (Him) that He gave them no power to accept
......that's like creating a blind child then severely punishing him because he can't see
Since nothing happens that God doesn't preordain, God must be the author of sin
^^^^^^ so much WRONG there it's unbelievable. Totally un-Biblical, and not the God of Scripture at all.
Now, let's see how long it takes for someone to come along and say "you really don't understand Calvinism".
Which post are you responding to?Really? When one reads the entire Bible and say they believe in a congregation, rather than Jesus.... that in itself is wrong.
