Bible Note: Greeting Bjanko! In other words, you can't deal with the Scriptures can you! We have discussed these issue on the forum in recent months. I normally would not have replied because I know that many on the forum don't really wish to extend the debate. However, I read you posts and your attitude toward Arminians and I couldn't resist. I have nothing but respect for my brothers and sisters who believe in Calvinism. But, they at least understand that Arminianism is not Semi-pelagianism. Further, they will at least make an attempt to deal with Scriptures that seem to disagree with their position. While I may not always agree with their reasoning, I can understand and respect their position. However, you have failed to address the Scriptures and simply keep repeating that my philosophy is at fault. If this is so, then you should easily be able to explain all of those passage I quoted for you where the Bible says that God died for "the World, All, Everyone...ect...." Please make the attempt!
