Your statement/disclaimer at the end of the video was perfect. As I was listening I was thinking about all the people who would be arguing in the comments rather than understanding that this is a video to teach what the belief is & not to argue if the belief is perfectly biblically sound. The only way people should be arguing in the comments is if you misrepresent some theology.
Misinterpreting a predestination for all to be saved vs a predestination for some to be saved. That’s how easy it is to build an entire denomination around false doctrine.
Compatiblism is not the belief God's determination is compatible with genuine freewill. Rather it redefines freewill to fit Determinism. Thus it's a fairly clever way to rebrand the idea that God decrees and causes evil.
DW: Correct! Standord Encyclopedia of Philosophy -quote Compatibilism is the thesis that free will is compatible with determinism. Thus in Calvinism 1) Creation is granted sufficient FREEDOM to be/do that which is DETERMINED by infallible decree. That FREEDOM is thus COMPATIBLE with Determinism. 2) Creation is NOT granted FREEDOM to be/do otherwise than that which is DETERMINED by infallible decree. Because that FREEDOM is NOT COMPATIBLE with Determinism. Therefore on Calvinism 1) Adam was granted FREEDOM to eat the fruit - because Adam eating the fruit was DETERMINED by infallible decree - and that FREEDOM is thus COMPATIBLE with Determinism. 2) Adam was NOT FREE to NOT eat the fruit - because NOT eating the fruit was NOT Determined by infallible decree - and thus NOT COMPATIBLE with Determinism.
I'm loving your videos. Thank you.

I’ll keep watching 😉
Poor Zwingli.

Compatibilism is the thesis that free will is compatible with determinism.
Thus in Calvinism
1) Creation is granted sufficient FREEDOM to be/do that which is DETERMINED by infallible decree. That FREEDOM is thus COMPATIBLE with Determinism.
2) Creation is NOT granted FREEDOM to be/do otherwise than that which is DETERMINED by infallible decree. Because that FREEDOM is NOT COMPATIBLE with Determinism.
Therefore on Calvinism
1) Adam was granted FREEDOM to eat the fruit - because Adam eating the fruit was DETERMINED by infallible decree - and that FREEDOM is thus COMPATIBLE with Determinism.
2) Adam was NOT FREE to NOT eat the fruit - because NOT eating the fruit was NOT Determined by infallible decree - and thus NOT COMPATIBLE with Determinism.
