Subject: Whats up with Judgement, calvinists plz? |
Bible Note: Dear Prayon, You wrote: "If you really feel the need to discuss Calvinism there are numerous other forums where the subject might be welcomed." I apologize in advance for the ironic tone of this note. But I feel that it may be the best means of illustrating the impossibilty of complying with your request. You may might as well have counseled me to avoid the topic of God. The following is a short list of some of the areas where "calvinism" (which is by the way a nickname only) may be construed as applicable. Sin Salvation Atonement Assurance God Man The terms: Foreknowledge ordained predestined. There are other areas that are "overworked" and "divisive as well." Should we avoid them also? Eschatology The Charismata Baptism In the interest of fair play we must also chastise (in love of course) those who espouse any view that smacks of arminianism as well. Do you see the problem? John |
