Thanks again brother for another good needful message. On the matter of Calvinism (T.U.L.I.P. ) I personally believe that all 5 points are biblically wrong. Yes I believe that man is depraved, but not to the extent of man's Will. Man has the ability to choose right and wrong, to reject the Gospel, or to believe it. Calvinism teaches that men are totally depraved that they can't choose Christ by their own selves, so God chooses them. So all 5 points I would reject, because God has given man Freewill so that he can of his own self accept or reject. Anyway Phil, that's what I personally believe. Ena and myself are off to Lake Windermere for a week, down in England, for a little break. Anyway brother, take care and Grace and Peace. Paul.
Thanks Paul I disagree with all 5 points of Calvinism too. What I meant was that outside of God's interaction with ALL of humanity, we would be lost and without hope. We know that God's offer of salvation is to everyone (1 Timothy 2:4) Thanks again for "staying with us" my brother Enjoy your break Paul In Christ Phil
