And anyhow that leaves the flaw that we can’t bridge over, technical arguments over it notwithstanding. Forever falling short of the glory of God.

What to do?

We must trust in Christ for salvation. You don’t have to be an anything-ist to acknowledge this.

There isn’t any natural state of man any more with such an inclination.


That statement of yours bleeds “predestination”.

There is clearly an indifference that you project.

definition of a Calminian:

Someone who is confused or can’t make up their mind
Someone who doesn’t understand the interplay between God’s sovereignty and man’s responsibility along with the mystery inherent in them existing side by side*

Someone who would leave classic Calvinists perplexed at their (the Calminian’s) understanding of Calvinism and classic Arminians perplexed at their understanding of Arminianism (sorry I felt a need to use the term classic)
Agreeing to disagree with yourself

Long ago I arrived at peace by realizing that a lot of the questions of destiny and of choice depend on perspectives that humans are not privy to.

We have paradox here, not the contradiction that you are reading into it. We are destined and we have choices. The choice to utterly reject salvation is also possible.

So I can bleed “predestination” and I can bleed “choice” and I can bleed “self consistency” too — because we haven’t nailed down all the variables.

You call it confused. I call it the peace of trusting God to do things God’s way.

And no I don’t bow to your definitions. I freely agree Calminian is about as relative as cult. I hope it is understood that I see elements of the truth of both.

So why did you define yourself as a Calminian?

You can call it supercalifragilistic...

Well yes. We appear possibly to be coming at one common conclusion using different words, your nonsense accusations about me notwithstanding.

We believe God can infallibly destine AND furnish choice. We don’t presume to pontificate about how.

Poking fun at the idea of having to pledge an allegiance to either one of those.

I thought you owned something.

I thought you were real.

lol - yeah, it’s one of “those” studies :)

It’s like having a study to see if men like sex.
