The "stumbling block" of Calvinism

[praise_yeshua]

ee.... A CALVINIST is so wrapped up in being accurate in petty things..... He misses the "BIG" picture.

See . . . a FREE-WILLY is so wrapped up in faulting a Calvinist for everything..... He missed my point.

You can't miss.... "its all about the babies".....

You can't miss.... "its all about the babies".....

Oh no, poor innocent babies damned to hell by an angry God!!!!!! Boohoohoohoohoo!!!!

If it wasn't a stumbling block, it would just be called "Christianity", with no need to pay homage to some political leader/religious figure.

With that brilliant soteriological argument, the matter should be settled forever and ever...Amen!

I am of Paul, I am of Apollos.... Yup, no one has ever had to use this line of reasoning before

Christianity was named after a religious figure.

The Figure.  The One Figure worthy.

I'd say there is a reason he missed this. It just might be a indication of what's MOST important to him.

Logical....

Okay. There's that word. So, I'm genuinely curious (because I haven't found someone who can provide a halfway coherent answer yet).

Can you name any choice you have made, any choice, that wasn't decided by your past history, genetic makeup, time in history, available resources, current circumstances, reasoning ability, etc?

I gave you an answer. You ignored it. Take issue with what I said and stop pretending I didn't give you an answer.

    Exactly.  Or in short, all choices are determined by inclination.  It takes God to change our inclination.


Are your children inclined to pedophilia? If not, then why not?
