@RisingDisciples

If Western Christians ever woke up to God's provisions & promises, we'd be a real threat to the gates of hell. We've settled for institutional church instead ๐Ÿ˜ด

@SacrdCowTipping And yet, some of the objections were, "But if we teach this and tell other people this, they may not give money to pay for our church building or other things." I basically just said that I couldn't in good conscience teach something I know is false for the sake of money.

I am continually encouraging by the rapidly growing number of people pursuing and returning to biblical ekklesia. I don't think it is just my algorithm, I am seeing it in the real world as well. Anyone else?

In the West, we debate denominations. In China, Iran, Somalia; FOLLOWING Christ can cost you everything. They arenโ€™t arguing Catholic vs Orthodox vs Protestant. Theyโ€™re risking their lives to follow Jesus. When pressure comes, labels fade. What remains is real discipleship.

@RisingDisciples John Piper admitted to me publicly that he doesn't know anything about Calvin's Institutes of the Christian Religion. None of them are aware that Calvin taught a temporary election for some.

Calvinists continue posting memes like the one below that only reveal that even big-name Calvinist "teachers" don't understand Calvinism. Rejecters of God reject him because they were ordained to do so before the foundation of the world.

@RisingDisciples You're not "ordained" to sin because the All Knowing has already seen it happen. You still have free will, He just allows people to do what they decide to do, it's not a designed rejection, it's an allowed rejection, but that doesn't change the repercussions, it supports them.

How many others are willing admit, along with me... "I'm so tired & fed up with Christian "activities," services, sermons, compromise, complacency, blandness, self-protection, irrelevance, & the powerlessness that oozes from individualistic, institutional Western Christendom?

Western Christendom, with all of her church "services," Bible study, activities, and busyness, has followed a very similar path as Israel, and we can't [or refuse to] even recognize it. Could it be because we are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked?

Election isnโ€™t God creating some for salvation & others for damnation. BELIEVERS are chosen in Christ (Eph 1:4), not selected in isolation. Christ is THE Chosen One. Those in Him by faith share that election. No one is chosen to believe. Double predestination isnโ€™t the Gospel.

Below is a calvinist meme. Calvinists are surely very special elect ones ๐Ÿค—, and the Lord must have had very special, but unknowable, reasons for selecting THEM to the exclusion of countless reprobates ๐Ÿซฉ

When people say โ€œIt was Godโ€™s plan for Joseph to be betrayed, sold, slandered, and imprisonedโ€, theyโ€™re not quoting Scripture. Theyโ€™re importing a philosophical assumption: that God must have intended every evil action in order to bring about a good outcome. But the Bible itself never says that. Joseph explicitly calls their actions evil: โ€œYou meant evil against meโ€ฆโ€ (Genesis 50:20) If God planned their sin, then Joseph is wrong to call it their intention and their evil. โ€œโ€ฆbut God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept aliveโ€ (Genesis 50:20) Notice the grammar: -- They meant evil. -- God meant good. The text does not say: -- โ€œGod meant their evil.โ€ -- โ€œGod planned their betrayal.โ€ -- โ€œGod ordained their sin.โ€ It says God took what they meant and repurposed it. This is providence, not determinism. The Bible never goes to God ordained evil. Instead, it consistently teaches: -- Humans genuinely choose evil. -- God is never the cause of evil. -- God is powerful enough to redeem evil without having to cause it. God didnโ€™t plan the sin. God planned the salvation that came through the sin.

@RisingDisciples Ephesians 1:4-5 does not say it's about all believers being predestined for Salvation. The context is those to whom the mystery of His will was made known. These are the apostles, as is described in Ephesians 3.

The quote below collapses under Calvinism. If God already chose who will be saved [& who wonโ€™t], then your desire to โ€œbring othersโ€ changes nothing. The outcome isnโ€™t in your hands. Itโ€™s already decreed. This quote assumes real human participation, which TULIP doesnโ€™t allow
