No one knows for sure on the eternal fate of his neighbor. As far as the example above the so called ‘sinful’ person could have done many good works before passing...if you believe that good works alone will deliver you.
We know the best good works are those low profile acts known only to God.
I’m interested to hear what JM has to say about this too. btw his last few shows that politely dismantled the charismatics were a good listen.
IMHO, he actually torpedoed the Word of Faith crowd more than anyone else.
Then again, this thread torpedoes a major Calvinistic belief. There is no way that they can truly differentiate b/w the never saved and those who are still saved, just “merely out of fellowship.”
Thus the unknowability of which Calvinist preacher/teacher/lay person is or isn’t saved.
It could very well be that in some cases enough time just hasn’t passed to unmask them.
Nobody believes that Pelagian position-- not even Pelagius himself.
