@TimmyJoe2096497 @5Solas Read the entire chapter and the apparent Calvinism disappears. I don’t “want it” to say anything

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

@5Solas Reading and seeking to genuinely understand Scripture would clear up 99.9% of the nonsense that the dogmatically blinded Calvinist say.

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

@5Solas Pssst …. Don’t look now, but there is NOTHING Calvinistic in that passage.

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

@realJennaEllis Most Calvinists that I've encountered are so captured by their system that they think there are only two choices: you either don't understand Calvinism, or you embrace Calvinism. This outlook entails that non-Calvinists are not reasonable or educated.

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

The stack of books on my desk written by Calvinist scholars, my YouTube watch history of Calvinists explaining it, the countless Calvinist sermons ... I'm starting to think it is the Calvinists on X who don't understand Calvinism.

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

@Truth_matters20 Anti-Calvinists don’t think humans have more authority than Scripture when it comes to these things … so they are not going to take note

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

@LostMyHats @DineshDSouza Alternatively, most or all Calvinists say he is ignorant because they sequester themselves into echo chambers and live their lives having their beliefs reinforced, and have absolutely no clue that other people exist who understand all the issues and yet are not Calvinists

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

@LostMyHats Bro … your arrogance got to the room 10 minutes before your body. Get out of your echo chamber.

@WWUTTcom The most confidently wrong post today!

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

@DPGBehler Spot on. But maybe repeat that part of how humble you are a few more times.

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

@pastorscottc Yeah all us Calvinists used to be stupid, too. But now we are just humbled to be the only ones capable of reading enough theological tradition to know what the Bible REALLY means.

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

@Thatbrian @Soteriology101 You can’t be serious. Christ is the one who draws. And he draws all men. PS - most non-Calvinists are also not Arminian. Just shows how you can’t get out of your echo chamber.

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

@LizzieMarbach You can’t be serious. Only a non-Calvinist can consistently pray those things, for if Calvinism is true, the prayer is of no effect.

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

@FrankLets78822 I don’t think your post accomplishes what you hoped. It just shows how Calvinists are trapped in a system that makes them incapable of reading the Bible for what it says. I believe you if you are saying that you think those passages support Calvinism. They don’t. Not at all.

@megbasham I’ve never met a Calvinist who understands his own depravity, though I’ve met dozens who claim to understand the depravity of others.

[R.A. Holland @raholland]

@Phil_Johnson_ @DineshDSouza Insane gaslighting… @Phil_Johnson_ “I was once stupid, too.” Prime example of a Calvinist utterly incapable of seeing reality, locked in the cage of his own mind, totally captured. Very sad.

“Christian socialist” is like “jumbo shrimp.” Some shrimp are more jumbo than others, but none of them are very big. Likewise, some socialists might be more Christian than others, but none of them is actually Christian.
