1 | The 'Kosmos' in 1 John | 1 John 2:2 | Reformer Joe | 19566 | ||
Tim: RE: John 8 Reformed teaching goes further than saying "only the elect will respond in faith." We hold that individuals can only die in THEIR sins because they are not atoned for. It is that same situation of "Who pays the just penalty of the sins of the damned?" Arminians seem to say that it is BOTH Christ and the sinner. --Joe! |

2 | The 'Kosmos' in 1 John | 1 John 2:2 | retxar | 19592 | ||
Hi Joe, Quick question. I claim neither Arminians or Calvinism. I don't want to get things cranked back up here, but I's just got ta know. If the Reformed teaching upholds the view that individuals can only die in their sins, because they are not atoned for, how does it explain Jesus extending forgiveness, personally, to the "non-elect", when no forgiveness was available? (i.e. Mat 19:21, Mar 10:21, Luke 18:22, Luke 23:34). How could Jesus say their sins could be forgiven and they could inherit eternal life, if what He was saying was not actually true and there sins were not atoned for? Thanks bro, retxar |
