1 | Study the Word, Calvin, or Aminian??? | Bible general Archive 1 | childoftheking | 35202 | ||
Hello all, I'm new to the forum and I've been reading a lot concerning Calvinism and Aminianism. Since there has been a lot of discussion on these men, I have recently looked into it in an attempt to educate myself on their works. As far as TULIP goes, I don’t agree with all of that nor do I agree with all of what the Arminianist says regarding it. This is just my view from reading off of different websites that explained each view. I have no less than 3 commentaries (Matthew Henry, Matthew Poole and a couple others) that I read and when studying a certain subject or book, I add a few more books to get a wide variety of views on the subject that I can compare with my own. I do not agree 100 percent with what any one particular person says. In explaining things of the Bible to people I will sometimes quote what another has written only because he explains it a little better. I'm just trying to get a handle on this whole debate. I just think that time would be best spent in studying the Bible, and the life of Jesus, how he wants us to live, things of that nature, and not constantly debating the works of Calvin and Arminian. My question is this and not meant to offend anyone but is it not dangerous to put so much emphasis on any Man’s doctrines, to follow them so faithfully and blindly, to just quote what these people have to say and call it gospel? Again, this is not meant as an attack on anyone individual, just my observation as a newcomer to the Forum Thanks for your time, Peace and Joy in Jesus bgg |

Child of the King I commend you for your wisdom and the way you expressed it. Your right there are far more important topics to discuss. I think the proof that neither Calvin or Arminian had 100 percent correct is the endless debate that still persists. Great observation!!!!!!! two thumbs up!!! EdB |
