@oliverburdick Romans 1:27 is about pagan idol worship rituals, not gay identity. The Greek word used describes uncontrolled lust, not relationships. Paul had zero concept of sexual orientation. Also, Jesus never mentioned homosexuality. Not once.

“WHERE DOES THE BIBLE SAY BEING GAY IS SIN?!” Romans 1:27 — “In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.”

@farmingandJesus I think you missed the bit where they accidentally name the victim in their frenzy to cover up the identity of the perpetrator.

I just read the craziest thing in the Epstein files! All I can say is Im so thankful for the transparency! It said that when 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 was in 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 with 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 they had two 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 with them and although 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 claimed to 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 that that evening 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 said he was for at least 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃. Then 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 brought a 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 to be 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 by 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 and it ended in the 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 of a small 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃. You get all that? Transparency is flowing and they aren’t covering for any p3dos! This is all so truthful and they aren’t playing games in any way!

Hey @idolworshiper, treating debates like a boxing match shows where your heart really is. The goal isn’t “weak outs” or cheap shots, but to glorify Christ and weigh doctrine against Scripture (Acts 17:11). Truth isn’t about theatrics—it’s about God’s Word, which stands unshaken whether or not you get your “match.

@Kewalaka12 @TheMuppetPastor @Protestia Look up sovereign in the dictionary. King Charles is sovereign too. Calvinists, making up your own definitions for words then using them like it’s some kind of mic drop is not very convincing to anyone else.

@TheMuppetPastor @Protestia If God did not ordain t, it would not have happened. God is sovereign in all things. “If there is one maverick molecule in all the universe, then God is not sovereign. And if God is not sovereign, He is not God.” -- R. C. Sproul

@farmingandJesus Couldn't have been real because the gospel accounts detailed it differently. After John told us he was a faster runner than Peter ( 🤣 ), he described the face cloth being folded & placed apart from the burial linens. The shroud doesn't have a separate face cloth.

Us non-Calvinists don’t find God’s sovereignty and man’s free will to be irreconcilable or in tension because we don’t define sovereignty as determinism. We define it by the normal meaning of being completely in charge and doing as He wishes. There’s not conflict between that and free will.

The inability to understand reformed theology comes from not recognizing that we hold in tension two things that are both absolutely true and irreconcilable to the human mind—God’s sovereignty and free will. It is God who draws us and gives us the ability to repent because he predestined us to be his sons and daughters AND we also have free will to choose salvation in his Son. These things are a paradox to a human being but are reconcilable in the infinitely greater wisdom of God.
SavedByGrace@faithgracesaved

How do reformed theology believers pray for people to come to salvation? Seriously how do they ask God to save someone? They believe God chose before the foundation of time who or who not would be saved. So why do they pray or witness at all?

@Okiemaday @FaithWithMase Gnosticism is an ancient heresy, don’t revive it. The NT was written in koine Greek, so they didn’t call him Yahusha. You shouldn’t quote from the NT as it is lawless and false by your own logic.

@FaithWithMase “Jesus” isn’t the Name above all names—𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤅𐤏 (Yahusha) is. You can’t be saved by a name invented in 1524. Faith without obedience is dead (Ya’aqob 2:17). Not Mary. Not church rituals. But also not lawless faith in a false name. (Matt 7:21-23)

@MarsMethod @M1NDW4RD3N Grok will tailor the answer to what you believe, so you’ll get the answer you want. It’s good for engagement, but means nothing. It needs to work in its vitriol if it’s going to be an authentic reformed theobro.

Greg Mars@MarsMethod·
So I asked Grok: When christ says "You are not My sheep" in John 10. does the scripture indicate that some of the sleep chose not to hear Christ. Or where they unable to all along? was God not at work in them? Answer: In John 10, when Jesus says, “You are not my sheep” (John 10:26), Scripture indicates that those addressed (certain Jews who questioned His messiahship) did not believe in Him because they were not among His sheep, whom the Father had given Him. The passage suggests they were unable to believe all along due to their spiritual state, as they were not drawn by the Father, implying that God’s work of enabling faith was not active in them. Their unbelief reflects their rejection of Jesus’ voice, consistent with their hardened hearts, rather than a deliberate choice to hear but refuse, as they lacked the divine enabling to recognize Him as the Shepherd. Scriptural Evidence: John 10:26: “But you do not believe because you are not among my sheep.” BibleGateway Unbelief stems from not being Jesus’ sheep, indicating a lack of divine drawing. John 10:27-29: “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life… My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all…” BibleGateway Jesus’ sheep, given by the Father, hear and follow, unlike those who are not His sheep. John 10:16: “I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice…” BibleGateway Sheep (including Gentiles) hear Jesus’ voice, implying divine enablement for belief. John 6:44: “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him…” BibleGateway Belief requires the Father’s drawing, absent in those not Jesus’ sheep. John 6:37: “All that the Father gives me will come to me…” BibleGateway Only those given by the Father believe, excluding those not drawn. John 10:25: “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do… bear witness about me…” BibleGateway Their unbelief reflects a spiritual inability to accept Jesus’ testimony. Isaiah 6:9-10: “Keep on hearing, but do not understand; keep on seeing, but do not perceive. Make the heart of this people dull…” BibleGateway Hardened hearts, as in John 10:26, prevent belief, linked to divine purpose. John 12:39-40: “They could not believe, because… ‘He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, lest they see…’” BibleGateway Unbelief results from hardened hearts, indicating divine withholding of enabling grace. Romans 11:7-8: “Israel failed to obtain what it was seeking… as it is written, ‘God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that would not see…’” BibleGateway Israel’s unbelief reflects divine hardening, akin to those in John 10:26. 2 Esdras 9:29-31 (Apocrypha): “I walked among your people… but they did not understand your wonders… they refused to obey.” Sefaria - 2 Esdras 9 Israel’s refusal reflects spiritual inability, similar to John 10:26. Note: In John 10, Jesus’ statement “You are not my sheep” (John 10:26) indicates that those who do not believe were not drawn by the Father (John 6:44), lacking the divine enabling to hear His voice (John 10:27). Their unbelief results from spiritual hardness (John 12:39-40, Isaiah 6:9-10), not a free choice to hear but refuse, as they were not given to Jesus (John 6:37), implying God’s work of faith was not active in them (Romans 11:7-8).

I wanted to provide some “free will” proof-texts and then translate how they’re supposed to be read when you have the Gnowledge™️. So here we go… “How often I wanted to gather your children…but you were not willing!” — Matthew 23:37 God did not actually want to gather them, if He did they would have been willing. “You refuse to come to me to have life.” — John 5:40 They were dead so they couldn’t come and be given life. “They always resist the Holy Spirit.” — Acts 7:51 The Holy Spirit was using resistible grace here. “The Lord is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.” — 2 Peter 3:9 God has two wills that are at war with one another and His more powerful will wants most people to perish. “You stiff-necked people…must you always reject my correction?” — Jeremiah 7:25-26, 35:17 God stiffened their necks so they’d reject His correction. “Why will you die, O house of Israel? Turn and live!” — Ezekiel 18:31-32 God’s teasing Israel here. He knows why they die and it’s because He won’t let them turn in order to live. “They carry out a plan, but not mine; they make an alliance, but against my will, piling sin on top of sin.” — Isaiah 30:1 God’s being a silly-billy here and it IS His plan and will. You just have to read it plainly. “But the Pharisees and experts in the law rejected God’s purpose for themselves.” — Luke 7:30 In rejecting God’s purpose they’re actually fulfilling God’s purpose. Just stop reading it any other way than plainly. “The Lord is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” — 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord actually does will that most everyone perishes and don’t come to repentance. If that wasn’t true God would be a failure because He always gets what He wants. If you just read scripture plainly you’d know that, but you need to have the Gnowledge™️ in order to do that. Hope this is helpful to anyone who’s over-complicating scripture and reading it with a lens.

God grants salvation to the people that Jesus placed on earth. He does not grant salvation to the people Satan placed on earth. (Yes, I understand this brings more questions, but I’m going with what Jesus said in the text.) The field is the world (as Jesus said, not the church as some claim). The good seeds are the sons of the kingdom, later referred to the righteous in verse 43: “Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father.” (Heaven) Conversely, all “law-breakers” are thrown into the fiery furnace, a place where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth (Hell). Nowhere in the text does it say that the law-breakers become sons of the kingdom. People are sent to heaven or hell after the harvest based on what they are from the beginning (sowing of the seeds).

I can't grasp how it's possible for people to believe in & worship a god who they believe selected THEM for salvation 🤗 & COUNTLESS OTHERS for eternal damnation 😲 before anyone ever existed. This "doctrine" was nowhere to be found in the church until centuries after Pentecost.

@rcsprouljr @LeonardG56161 @sola_chad I agree Mr. Sproul. God decreed that mankind should be allowed to freely to reject him- a God less than sovereign would be afraid to do so (Tozer).

As a Calvinist, I can say with gratitude that the Lord has grown me in grace over the years. I praise God for the ongoing work of sanctification. While I hold to the doctrines of election and God’s sovereignty, I strive not to be dogmatic on secondary matters such as free will or spiritual gifts. I recognize that faithful believers hold differing views on these issues, and my hope is that we would love the Lord deeply and enjoy fellowship with one another, regardless of our differences on non-essential doctrines.

Guys, RC Sproul and his ilk empowered an entire movement of pop calvinism in which they described Arminians as "barely saved," said Arminians "worship their own free will," and call people who don't care about theology as "default Arminians" because they have not been sanctified enough yet. Do you understand how insane this is? Not only that, but do you understand how obsessed and bitter you have to be against supposed Arminians you have to be when you make entire denominations think this way?

@Leprakon76 @Pastor_Gabe As a non Calvinist I can 100% affirm that predestination, election and foreordination are in the bible. The point of contention is what they mean not whether they exist.

No, they can’t explain election, foreordained or predestined. Yet all three words are clearly Biblical words. I get wrestling with these concepts. But to blatantly deny that they are Biblical is the most telling statement they make. I’ve been reformed for decades and I still wrestle with them. But I can’t deny it is what God says
