1 | Is there an age of accountability? | Bible general Archive 1 | jg8ball | 1183 | ||
Joseph, it looks like you could use a little help. I've tangled with these guys plenty of times and they get pretty irate when you show them scripturally that there interpretations don't hold up. Back to your question about the age of accountablity, I had not realized that the Calvins believed that children were not saved. If this is true it's rather sad they could actually believe this. I always thought God was a loving God. I really need to get home (I'm late for dinner) but I will try to investigate this topic tonight. I just wanted to let you know that you are not alone. There is one verse that Jesus tells us to have faith like the children but want to research it more to make sure it applies. By the way, JVH0212 really gets upset when you use the term Calvin. He says he is not a Calvin but I found he does believe more in the things Calvins believe verses the Arminians. I believe more in the Arminians beliefs but admit there are some Calvinistic beliefs that are sound. After all they do believe Jesus died for our sins. I guess I use the terms too loosly but find them handy to refer to one belief versus another. Ok, I'm real late now. later. |

Hello Norrie! Calvinists and Arminians are both groups of believers who believe in Jesus Christ and that He was, in fact, the Son of God. Both of these groups believe in the Trinity. The Calvinists follow the teachings of Reformed Theology and that of John Calvin. The Arminians are a group that follow the teachings of Jacobus Arminius, who disputed with John Calvin in his principle ideas regarding 'election' and predestination. Calvinists and Arminians differ in several views, namely, the issues of election, predestination, and eternal security. The views of both Arminians and Calvinists are already well documented on this Forum, since this Forum has a long history of several of these 'wars', fought through posts, to the discouragement of many. If you are more interested in them and their differences, then I suggest looking up the threads, "Election", Romans 5:6, 1 John 2:2, and "Once Saved Always Saved" in the 'Search' function. Thank you! Blessings! Nolan |
