Subject: Is Limited Atonement Bibical? |
Bible Note: Makarios, the strange thing about this forum "election" is that it's been going on for months with no declared winners yet! The heated presidential election in Florida pales in comparison to it. I think it's about time we tuck the hanging chads into a vault, lock it, and throw away the key. This continuum of debate on election, limited atonement and other tenets of reformed theology is not only endless, but highly biased. The only real purpose it is serving, and not a particularly meritorious one at that, is giving the advocates of reformed theology a soap-box on which to speak their piece. Meanwhile the majority of us are supposed to sit back and watch these views aired over and over, day after day, with no apparent end in sight. I would say that no one is being really edified by it, and I doubt that few if any are buying their argument about limited atonement and such. I should rather think that new believers and would-be believers are being confused, abashed, and turned away by it It is in poor taste at the least and flat wrong at the most to air on this forum a daily megadose of one-sided denominational bias, and air it over and over and over to the point of disgust. The reformers have had their say. We know what their views are. It's time and past time for them to pack up their Reformed-Calvinist medicine bag. We have already had an over-dose. --Hank |
