What He did was offered the entire world the opportunity to come join Him in the New Covenant. His door is open to all.

Those that claim limited atonement have no assurance of their own personal salvation because this teaching is heresy and that's on God's list of "those that do these things shall not inherit the Kingdom" - it is one of the the works of the flesh mentioned in Galatians 5:19-21





Calvinists won't be spending eternity with the Lord sadly as they continue their perversion of God's Word and instead following doctrines of demons.

It's really sad too seeing their are blinded by the darkness that has engulfed them. Too bad so sad.

Well bless your pea picken heart. Deception has taken over your thoughts


Deuteronomy 24:16
The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers:
every man shall be put to death for his own sin

Deuteronomy 1:39
Moreover your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, and your children, which in that day had no
knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.

2 Kings 14:6
But the sons of the slayers he did not put to death, according to what is written in the book of the Law of Moses,
as the Lord commanded, saying, “The fathers shall not be put to death for the sons, nor the sons be put to death
for the fathers; but each shall be put to death for his own sin

Ezekiel 18:19
Yet you say, ‘Why should the son not bear the punishment for the father’s iniquity?’ When the son has practiced
justice and righteousness and has observed all My statutes and done them, he shall surely live

Ezekiel 18:20
The person who sins will die. The son will not bear the punishment for the father’s iniquity, nor will the father
bear the punishment for the son’s iniquity; the righteousness of the righteous will be upon himself, and the
wickedness of the wicked will be upon himself


We were NOT born with a sin nature!
when God placed a person in the mother's womb... the Lord did not put sin in to them making them to be born
as sinners.

What some are referring to as "sin nature" are the habits we all take on as a result of living in a world full of sin
and darkness and habitually they become full of "sin nature" because they live in sin continually walking after
the flesh and not after the Spirit.

God did not make anyone to be a sinner when He created them... but satan claims He did


Romans 3:23
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

We all became sinners AFTER we arrived on Club Earth so God is holding each person accountable for their own

sin, not for Adam's sin

Romans 5:12
Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for

that all have sinned:

Here again.... death (separation from God) passed upon all men because all have sinned






We'll see how following the murder Jon Calvin's teachings works out for you people in the end.

It ends badly. You have been put on notice!






Yeah, the followers of John Calvin the scripture twister are confused.

They get that from their father the devil.




And according to the calvinist heretics, God decided most people will go to hell.

They claim God created most people for no other purpose but to be tormented in hell and He supposedly did so before any of these people were even born.

This is because calvinists confuse God and satan - to them it's all thew same guy which is what happens when people follow doctrines of demons, they become children of the devil and are too slow and blind to even know it. Sad state of affairs for the calvinists, but they have been warned!

Think. Why on Earth do you think there is going to be a Judgment?
The Judgment would be a joke or a farce if it were all on God who decided who was saved and not saved.
It would be like having a judgment for robots that were just following their programming and had no true choice.
The Judgment will be a place where God will judge men for having accepted Him or rejected Him.
According to Scripture, God will judge every man according to his works.

You're confusing the calvinists with your common sense.

Do you feel better now, are you truly satisfied with your dogma and bright ideas to help us believe, ?

Or is more the case the fruits of the spirit doesn't tame your tongue.

Probably since as it's all you've done since you got here.

People like you should be locked up from the internet permanently l

I so look forward to that the day when people get banned from the internet chat sites all together where by if they try to re enter after they've been banned for religious racism or any racism by the authorities, they then get a custodial sentence if they go back in.

It will happen one day hopefully.

Rom 5:19
For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made
righteous.

Those claiming what Adam did made all people to be sinners... so WHY do they not believe verse 19 and apply the same logic.

If they did that then they would have to now claim that all have been made righteous thru the actions of Jesus

I did better by warning the tares that calvinism is heresy which is one of the works of the flesh that cause people to not get in the the Lord's Kingdom.

The tares have been warned!

How long have you been in your little box for with your free will,

Let me guess forever you will be.

The door is open to all. Anyone has the “free will offer“ to become a child of God if they want. 2 Peter 3:9 says God is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. Sure, God knows who will accept Him and reject Him. But that is on them. In those who deny free will or those who believe in Calvinism, the door is shut to the majority of mankind, and they never had a chance to believe or receive Christ because of God’s decision (When God could have easily snapped His fingers and saved them).

He has revealed knowledge from the Holy Spirit that comes from accepting the whole counsel of God.

Calvinists need not concern themselves with revealed knowledge from the Holy Spirit seeing they are happy with the doctrines of demons that they continually espouse.

A horrible translation. No wonder people get the wrong idea

I formerly being blasphemous, and a persecutor, and arrogant. But I was shown mercy, for being ignorant I acted in unbelief. But the grace of our Lord superabounded with faith and love in Christ Jesus. 1 Timothy 1:13-14​

You have an odd way of admitting you were wrong. I get it. You cannot say the words. You are too prideful.

I never stated otherwise, but He does set a condition/responsibility, which is set by His sovereignty.

Seems so to me that those who deny the condition/responsibility set by God are denying His sovereignty.

and another thing mr unconvicted this was the lords faith being expressed when the person thanked the lord for the free will gift offering.

The lords will has power to save.

It's not like your will that thinks it can bend spoons, and its not by your faith you can move mountains either.

Its by his faith 😭

Those who have truly come to love his sovereignty would never deny his will by his will inside of them for as long as you have 😭
