If you have an IM service like yahoo or hotmail you can email it to me if you like and maybe we can better communicate that way.

Big difference Mr. Strawman.

Calvinism teaches that God does not mean what he states. It only takes a couple simple questions for me to make that blatantly obvious.

God's word states, "For God so loved the world."

The Calvinist state, "For God so loved the elect."

Hellow, Good morning!

Ha!

Well, I do not introduce myself as the Weapon of Mass Instruction when I get in front of the pulpit, if that is what you mean. Ha!

And I do not normally use a debating style when I am on the pulpit, so I guess the simple answer is no.

Maybe you can be more specific.

"Weapon of Mass Instruction" is an ironic tongue and cheek that I have adopted. You see Calvinists are generally elitists. There are a few that I have met here that certainly are not, but generally they are. And there is nothing more unnerving to an elitist than to have those that they despise to act smarter than they.

It's funny to observe really. I find it a wholesome form of entertainment.

I remember when I first started to use the allias (JD could attest to this). All the Calvinist united to banned me simply because they assumed it to be prideful. I could have almost tasted the foam in their mouths.

I did get banned. But SA quickly changed his mind about my alias.

Have you ever wondered why I misspell "dehvastating"? Because SA banned the use of the word! Ha!

That is the same reason why I have to type the following phrase the way I do:

"The F_anciful L_and of the Calvinist"

And indeed it is.

And yes I do. I am not perfect, but yes I do meet those qualifications.

There are two basic conservative positions that differ in the "husband of one wife" clause:

1. You could have not been divorced at all in your entire life.

2. You could have not been divorced since you have been saved.

I believe #2 is more Scriptural. Jesus forgives us from all of our sins. Now if we divorce as a Christian then, I believe that that disqualifies a person from the pastorate.

No answer then. Just more screed to add to the nonsense you previously posted.

The dehvastating truth is that there is nothing in the Bible that states that Abraham was unconditionally chosen unto salvation.

If he was not chosen for salvation then what? Just so that God could make a nation of him - just for the fun of it!

Of course only someone who calls himself WOMI can completely miss that all God's dealings in the OT since the proto-evangel announced in Gen 3 were to do with salvation!

Yamil, then it is up to you to show me from scripture where Abraham raised his hand during a church service, walked an isle, said a sinner's prayer to invite Jesus into his heart.
Better get some malpractice insurance, you may need it.

Nehemiah 9:7
Thou art the LORD the God, ****who didst choose Abram***, and broughtest him forth out of Ur of the Chaldees, and gavest him the name of Abraham..

Ridiculous? Yes. The deathnail to Calvinism is called context: something that they pridefully admit having no regard of.

You even provided proof below. Instead of appealing to God's Word you appeal to your perverted logic. Do you really expect me to answer seriously to a ridiculous question as the one you propose?

Did Abraham seek God? Or did God seek Abraham?

Hellow! Is there a Doctor in the house?!?!

Oh, that's me.

A relationship does not work unless both parties involve invest in it. There is no such thing as a one-sided relationship.

The dehvastating truth is that the Scripture do not state that God unconditionally chose Abraham unto salvation.

But of course, as I said before, you do not care, do you?

I like to start with what the Scripture states; you like to start with what does Calvinism state.

Sorry.
