ghost agrees with Inzl Kett regarding the wackiness of Calvinism. Great description by ghost! :up:
:first:First, you have deny that the Gospel is the power of God unto salvation, but rather God will zap you with His "quickening" wand. Then you have to believe that the only people who are zapped were decided before you were born. Then you have to accept the idea that Jesus only died for the sins of those people who were hand-picked to be zapped and not the whole world. You also have to believe that the word "all" means something different to God (and Calvinists) than "all" of us :dunce:. Plus, you must accept the idea that the Holy Spirit agrees with Calvinist doctrine, and only tells it to Calvinists, leaving everyone else who believes in Jesus in the dark.You just illustrated why I am not a Calvinist. I cannot wrap my mind around this kind of thinking.:kookoo:
If you can do do all that, then you'll have the mind of Calvinism err ... um... Jesus, I guess :freak:
