Co-founder of Wikipedia, Larry Sanger, was a lifelong philosopher and skeptic. But recently, he became a Christian. If you’ve ever wondered how a brilliant mind can come to embrace the teachings of Jesus Christ, keep reading. This is his journey🧵

@1984_nate Christ died for all men, yet not all men receive the merits of Christ’s death.

No one just reading and studying scripture without the traditions of men corrupting them would come away thinking that Christ didn’t die for all men.

@1984_nate Believing in libertarian free will is better than not being able to control the tongue, which is not of the regenerate man. But if we are regenerate, like Paul we have no problem proclaiming the sovereignty and omnipotence of the Lord Jesus Christ

Where do these guys come from? Good grief.

@JstevensDK7 @1984_nate Is that some special knowledge God has given you? I personally don’t feel superior to anyone because of God’s illumination to His Word, in fact, I’m humbled because I see my own wretched nature undeserving of His grace and mercy.

@1984_nate Calvinism is a classic cultism. Brainwashed into thinking one has a special knowledge the masses don't have which gives a blinding superiority prideful arrogant and dissident cognitive disconnect into a deluge of delusion.

I’m convinced Calvinism causes it’s adherents to check their brains at the door.

@1984_nate No need for insulting a brother. In fact no bible verse says we were trapped in a prison with a decision that all depends upon us. The Bible says we were a slaves to sin and dead in our trespasses, not seeking God, till we were raised with Christ by grace

@ProvisionistP It's biblical but can be misleading if we think salvation comes forth from our own wretched will and not the work of our Triune God. Rather it's better "he who is saved endures to the end is saved, by grace through faith" Matt. 24:13, Eph 2:8-10. This is the P in TULIP

I’m convinced that once saved, always saved is biblical—but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t wrestle with it. Seeing people who genuinely seemed on fire for Christ now deny Him is tough. In short, it’s a doctrine often difficult to reconcile with experience.

@1984_nate It’s not wise to slander a brother, regardless of their theological beliefs

Calvinists are morons.

@piratechristian @shawnbolz I’m looking for a Joshua, is there a Joshua here? Does that name mean anything? Oh I’m getting something to do with a sneaky squid? 😂

@shawnbolz Shawn, rather than Googling people's socials in order to data mine their info to make it appear that you're a prophet. You should instead Google the phrase "Biblical Repentance" and amend your life accordingly.

@Virgini23166650 @5solas And this is like what God said: “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be COMPLETE, equipped for every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17

@5solas Wow. That's like someone says: "Y'know you can't build a nuclear reactor entirely out of chocolate" And you say: "wHy Do yOu HaTE ChOColAte sO MUcH?!!!!!!"

Why do Ortho Bros and Roman Catholics hate God's word so much?

@iamjakebryant @ProvisionistP That verse in Genesis isn’t actually about Christians trying to deceive other Christians. To fight against the peace of Christ’s church is not good fruit. Scripture gives scripture context and if our context is taking away God’s omnipotence and sovereignty, then it ain’t right.

Calvinism: turning the love letter of the God-breathed Scriptures into an instruction manual for divine mechanics since 1619.

@NumbersMan65 @iamjakebryant @ProvisionistP False excuse. The elect is the ones who believe, the remnant chosen by grace. The believing elect only receive His saving merits, not the world. Didn’t the Magnificent Holy Spirit come into your heart and bring you to the Son willingly?

@iamjakebryant @ProvisionistP Sadly, many Calvinists redefine "world" as "elect".

@joshfontanilla @ProvisionistP Because he said “don’t give them a vague ‘God loves you’ that affirms them in their sin, but show them their sin and then give them the good news of gospel”? And not one thing was said about Calvinism.

@ProvisionistP Calvinism is sick. Evil.

WHY shouldn’t we tell unbelievers THE TRUTH, Brother Gabe?

@yoyoprojon @ProvisionistP We are chosen by grace, not by anything in us. John 3:16 teaches eternal life is limited to one believing. Faith alone but not a faith alone. Salvation and the means to it is a gift from God. Christ died for all, but not in the sense all will actually be saved and sins atoned for

They want to feel special and like the "chosen ones" as is true with most cults. It's so crazy how they ignore John 3:16 and all of the New Testament that says Jesus died for everyone and God desires to save everyone. That really is Christianity 101, I'm starting to think that Calvinism is another Gospel altogether.

@J17apologetics @Lexruger007 Have you read 2 Sam. 24:1 and 1 Chr. 21:1? How can God and satan both incite David’s heart? God controls all things actively/passively for His good purposes. He is not the author of evil. You know full well the redemptive work of Christ portrays just that.

@Lexruger007 ....so you're saying you haven't read them.

@JPGolfandTaxes @triplett_mark @ProvisionistP We are the elect if we believe in Christ and have been changed by the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit who witnesses that we are God’s children, not by our own doing, but by His love. It is the Spirit who keeps us and works in us so that we work out our salvation.

@triplett_mark @ProvisionistP How can any Calvinist actually believe he/she is of the exclusive elect, chosen for salvation from before the foundation of the world? They have no empirical proof. Calvin warned of many in church who looked like the elect, but are not. How can Calvinists ever be sure they were?

“Sinful humanity” includes everyone! “For God so loved [everyone]”! We agree 🙌🏻

@slow_down_Jess @ProvisionistP The Bible interprets the Bible, not stand alone verses. Jesus said to preach the gospel to every creature so the universal offer to salvation extends all men everywhere, but the Word of God has not failed. Rom 10:20-21 shows all good things come by grace, and bad, our fallenness.

@ProvisionistP The theological scaffolding and hula hoops these individuals have to build and jump through to make their position makes sense is mind-boggling

@ProvisionistP How do you get around 2 Sam. 24:1 and 1 Chron. 21:1?

@G3Conference This is correct though I’d say the biblical gift continues, though there is not much need for it. Yes there are many that aren’t tongues and aren’t a gift at all, but unless Christians are lying when they have prayed with foreigners, etc, the biblical gift/sign still exists.

Christians need to hear this important truth...
