My point was that just because a group that you disagree with believes a certain doctrine, that is biblical, it is foolish to throw the baby out with the bath water. Someone mentioned commentatators, and you did not address their argument, but dismissed them completely.

Btw, if you knew anything about church history and doctrine you would know that my position on election and predestination are not Calvinistic. So either you don’t know these things or you are merely defaulting to what you do when your arguments fail.

You keep complaining to me about the fact that I agree with Calvinists on some points. Your problem is you fail to attack a persons argument. All you really have is that everything you disagree with “is Calvinist”. I saw you do that when someone mentioned commentaters. You did not address...

The fourth sentence in paragraph one is misleading, because the Bible does teach a degree of human inability. Do a study on the words μη δύναμαι, «is not able”.

I was able to watch your video through the link. I do not believe that God foreordained every sin, in the sense that He infallibly decreed that it must take place, though He did decree that some evil acts take place, like the crucifixtion. But if I am being tempted to commit a certain sin...

Your media didn’t paste. Anyways, you already know my position. I have told it to you numerous times. You also know what parts of that confession I agree with and what parts I disagree with. I have given you more than enough information on what I believe that you should by now be able to...
