Yes the angels were there tonight as they have been busy all week. I keep binding and loosing for the salvation of those I know aren't saved yet, and I have such wonderful peace that I can serve G-D in such a manner and be watchful at the same time. Though I don't see the angels and dasn’t talk to them, I have complete confidence they are carrying out the Lord's work because the Scripture says so.

To all my Calvinists brothers and sisters: The Scripture is full of “whosoever wills”, mankind's free will, G-D’s redeeming love for the entire world, and the statement that G-D is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Would you keep the Gospel from someone you thought wasn't preordained or chosen? How
cruel and elitist if you do.

3rd Verse of “There is a Fountain”
Ere since that day, I saw the blood
Thy wounded side supplied.
Redeeming love has been my theme,
and shall be til I die.
And shall be til I die. And shall be til I die.

I am very ill; perhaps on death's door with a failed kidney transplant. But in the last week's I have felt and demonstrated to my doctors a healing and regeneration unlike anything before. We're getting ready for something big. I have always known Matthew 24 adjures us to know the season and to watch, wait, and preach the Gospel. (Matthew 28) We're not silly, nor we know the exact day or hour (just the season.) We go about our daily business of providing for our own, being salt and light by speaking the truth in love. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us.

To me, the most indicting verse against Calvinism is found in Paul's speech on Mars Hill.

Acts 17 24"The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. 25And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything, because he himself gives all men life and breath and everything else. 26From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. 27God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. 28'For in him we live and move and have our being.' As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.'

29"Therefore since we are God's offspring, we should not think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone—an image made by man's design and skill. 30In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent.

It is beyond comprehension that God would command all men everywhere to repent when he picked and chose who was going to be saved to begin with. How on earth could He command people to do what He didn't permit them to do or gave them no option to be able to do it?
