Same catch phrase that most of them say......at least three of them have used it....like a pre-programmed Jehovah's Witness catch phrase or something.....laughable and tragic at the same time.

So true ... and I am very glad you mentioned it because this thread looking back shows it exactly.
Huge alarm right there!

What is "Truth", do we find it by studying scripture?

The Lord Jesus Christ said "I am the truth" so I believe the truth is Christ Himself. We all hate Christ, before our conversion so I read your last line as "DO YOU WANT THE LORD JESUS CHRIST AND NOTHING BUT THE LORD JESUS CHRIST" The problem with that question is, how can anyone who hates the Truth want it. Can a person force themselves to love someone they hate.

do you enjoy being a billboard for Calvinists?

we do not all hate Christ before salvation. I was 5 years old and had never heard of God or anything to do with the Bible, yet when I did hear in Sunday School, I went home and thought about it and prayed and God clearly showed me He heard me and so I accepted Christ.

5 years old. I did not hate anything except bedtime and peas.

Scotty, I urge you to consider the terrible things that Calvin did to fellow believers.
Please read this post.
Jesus said that we will know false teachers by their fruit. He also said,
'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to ME.'
This is a serious point to consider about Calvin.
Yes Calvin tells some truth. Also he ignores some other truth just like the Arminians. Are megachurches better? They only tell people that God loves them. That's also truth that cannot be argued, but is it the whole truth?

I have been accused of being a Calvinist, but I have never read his writings, or any other of man's commentaries, but what I have heard from other people, I do not believe he understands the complete doctrine of Christ.

Scripture proves scripture and should be our only source of understanding the truth of Christ's doctrine. God does not love all of mankind, because he chastens those that he loves, and he does not chasten the wicked that are mentioned in Psalms 73:5.

Your theology of the scriptures do not harmonize with all of the scriptures. You are not rightly dividing the word of God, and do not understand the doctrine that Christ taught.

Read this back to yourself. Then pay attention so you can understand what you are doing

The Lord Jesus Christ is a Calvinist, He did study scripture from a young age in the synagogue and when He began His Ministry at the age of 30 He taught the same gospel as John Calvin, so we can say He is a Calvinist as well.

well I missed this gem and only saw it in Dcon's post above

this beats all. seems SPC there, thinks Johnny came before Christ. well maybe not, he is just trying to regurgitate his new beliefs but he is not too good at it

this one is actually funny if the repercussions and deep deep deception it illustrates were not as serious as they are

Matthew 5:43-48
You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and ‘Hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Do not even tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even Gentiles do the same? Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

no escape and no mercy

The tragic truth....the word word is Kosmos, yet they change to word to mean elect.....I have seen you know who do it numerous times and people he has mentored as well.

Kosmos is used most often to speak of satans domain. And all those who are in it
