***How many words do we get this time?***
Well, I'd sure like someone to tell me. I'll count them. OK? But, until the Arminians, who have delcared me (and most Calvinists) unsaved, preach the right gospel for today, how am I suppose to answer your question?
In the service of the Lord,
Christian.
1) No one has declared you unsaved. You took up that cause all by yourself.
2) It wasn't "my" question.
But I think you knew that.
Hey, FTD: sidestepping the discussion of whether Calvinists are in error or not (obviously, you and I will disagree on that!), let me ask you this.
According to your theological understanding, are Calvinists, by virtue of their Calvinistic soteriology, unsaved?
Once again, according to your theological understanding, are "Arminians," (for lack of a more precise term), by virtue of their soteriology, saved?
In these verses Paul lays out plainly for us what the Gospel is:
1 Cor. 15:1-4 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached nto you which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand. By which also ye are saved. if ye keep in memory what I preache unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died, for our sins according to the scriptures; And the He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the scriptures.
So what is the Gospel? he tells us in v.3-4. The Gospel is the death, burial and resurrection of Christ.
