I think he copy/pastes things to agree or make it look like he is not in agreement with Calvinism, then, he comes up with these ideas
from some parallel universe and starts with the cloned Calvinistic doctrine
he does not have to call himself a follower of Calvin to share either all or some of the beliefs
he certainly believes we do not have a choice
but he is not a Calvinist. just believes like one. other people here have said the same but believed the doctrine
anyway, take him at his word. he is not a Calvinist; he just believes like one
not Calvinistic at all. not at all
we are not all nuts here. and now we have 2 spirits of God. the Holy Spirit and the Holy Ghost. you can't make this stuff up
anyway, he is the one who has to live with it

The Holy Spirit, the quickening Spirit, has been quickening God's people, by his indwelling them, in the old testament, as well as people in the new testament, sense day one. The Holy Ghost, the revelator, and comforter, began his work after Christ ascended.
The KJV translates Galatians 2:16 “faith of Christ” because the noun is in the genetive case, but the genetive case is not always indicating “ possession”. It has other uses.
The verb faith also can be translated faithfulness. Justified by the faithfulness of Christ. Some render it this way
I prefer the reading faith in Christ because of the latter part of the sentence. I think it is expressing Christ as the object of faith

Saved, according to Strong's concordance, means "delivered". Regenerated children of God are delivered many times as they sojourn here in this world, that has nothing to do with eternal deliverance. A newly born babe in Christ feeds upon the milk of the word, as he is taught, and gradually grows to maturity. There is a deliverance (salvation) from his lack of knowledge of the gospel, upon learning of the gospel.
Isaiah 28:9-10, Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, and there a little.

I am not saying that they are two different Spirits, I am saying that the one Holy Spirit has two different functions. The quickening Spirit has been quickening God's elect from day one in the old testament, as well as, in the new testament. The revelator Spirit, which is just another function of the Holy Spirit, began after Christ ascended. All of God's elect children are born again, quickened, in the same manner from day one.
I’m early into the video, about 20 minutes in, and already hears a critical mistake. He said Calvinists teach that God arbitrarily chose people.
Calvinists DO NOT believe in arbitrary election. And Arminians CERTAINLY DONT believe in arbitrary election.
How many strikes should I allow? Continuing the video now.

Hi Magenta, I will let it pass the Bible Version issue but not to ignore they were used in the KJV interchangeably as in the following:
John 7:39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Luke 4:1 And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
John 7:39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)

Fortunately, he has explained that he did not mean two beings, and in the original post, he said he was referring to functions not being. Now I don’t agree with his distinguishing the meaning of The roles of Holy Spirit and Holy Ghost, but your claim that he said they were two seperate beings is mistaken.
I could say that Jesus existed as the unbegotten LOGOS before time and the Son of Man in time, but that’s not two different persons, that is different titles for different roles for the same person
I do not agree with the way Forest makes a distinction in meaning between Holy Ghost and Holy Spirit, but He did not say anything about seperate beings.
