Bible Note: Tim: My Christmas was quite good, thank you! The verses you cited support both an Arminian and a Calvinist perspective. When I became a Christian, I actively received the free gift of salvation and pardon through Christ Jesus. The Reformed-minded individual has no problem with the active voice here. Your post does bring up an interesting problem I have with the Arminian view. If the gift is there for all and we just have to receive it, it provides a completely different paradigm between the two views. Calvinists view the person as "lost unless Christ died for him"; many Arminians take a view very similar to the statement "you are saved unless you reject it." Which reflects the spirit of Scripture? --Joe! |
