I like to ask questions and try to understand things

@Marineforever12 Nah, I’m not a Jew. Those laws were for a certain people during a certain time, in that context.

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

Calvinism makes me so sad.

God is so much better, more loving and just and good than that system entails.

The Calvinists I know irl all have good hearts. I just wish that they could humbly and openly look at things from another perspective and really sit with it and give it a chance.

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

@Marineforever12 Why?

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

@Marineforever12 No. Why?

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

@newtskinner Yes!

@NormWimberg Jesus is Lord

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

@NormWimberg No

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

@NormWimberg The night is too late to get into such a long list. It’d be easier to talk about what isn’t my problem with Calvinism 😉

@BeenAWhileNow @5PointBaptist 💯

@mstevens73 @The_Idol_Killer @Soteriology101 @Jacques_More Let me think on it.
A big revelation of God in my life came before all of that, but being anon I probably wouldn’t post that.

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

@J17apologetics @TurretinFan It was good and almost convinced me.
Have you seen the take by @Jacques_More ?

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

The Calvinist doctrine of unconditional election to salvation is a false teaching that causes many to stumble.

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

Oh! 😆 sorry… I’ve been slow lately.
I’d recommend
@The_Idol_Killer and of course @Soteriology101
And I thought a take on election by @Jacques_More was very compelling but his article was much better than his video, well it was good but really slow
And the book Theodicy of Love by @jcpeckham is amazing
And there’s a great Romans 9 video by @JoelFKorytko
I’d also check out Ryan Mullins on God and time
I also like @akrichardson2 and David Bercot

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

@mstevens73 You’re present?

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

@mstevens73 Something besides Calvinism

@graham919191 And, Calvinists and Arminians are a minority in Christianity. So reading outside them is good too!

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

@graham919191 Yeah I think I’ve seen quite a few Calvinists on X disavowing things Calvin wrote, but more often they just say you don’t understand Calvin

[Root @rootcausesleuth]

@RealJonTKarn I’m sorry
