Gal. 1:7-9
“Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

9 As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.”

Titus 2:11
11 “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,”

Rom. 1:16-17
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

John 6:44-45
“44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.”

Gene Taylor:
“The five tenets of Calvinism are so tightly and logically knit together that if you accept one, you must accept them all. Conversely, if you deny one, you must deny them all.

•The child of God can fall from grace (Galatians 5:4; Hebrews 6:4-6; Acts 8:9-24). The Perseverance of the Saints is not a valid doctrine.
•If a child of God can fall from grace, then God’s grace must not be irresistible so the doctrine of Irresistible Grace falls.
•And if God’s grace is not irresistible, then a person must be free to choose whether he will accept that grace or not. So the doctrine of Unconditional Election falls.
•And if a person is free to make the good choice to accept God’s grace, we cannot say that Christ died only for the elect. We must say, along with the apostle Paul (I Timothy 2:6), that He died for the sins of all people. So the doctrine of Limited Atonement collapses.
•And if a person can make a good choice, he must not be “wholly defiled in the all the faculties of soul and mind.” Therefore, the doctrine of Total Hereditary Depravity falls.
•The whole system of Calvinism comes crashing to the ground when one applies the Truth of Scripture to it.’
