That accusation can be leveled at the opponents of Calvinism just as easily and IMO with more validity.
(Forgive me if this was discussed in the thread - I've not read the entire thread yet and don't have time to do it right now - but I thought your comment warranted a response.)
I agree. And his comment is .....so most tend to ignore the passages they cant just explain away.
I agree. Like these.....?
"Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, 'Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons'" Acts 10:34
"For who makes you different from anyone else? What do you have that you did not RECEIVE? And if you did RECEIVE it, why do you boast as though you did not? 1 Corinthians 4:7
Saying they are 'the elect' - different that anyone else and boasting. Now that is foreknowledge of the Calvinists!
Salvation is a GIFT of God. We thankfully RECEIVE gifts. Seems Calvinists' might have an entitlement mindset.
