I think arrogance was the right word to describe you.....

Until you can answer, you have a weak gospel. I can easily answer all of these simple questions.

"So now you are the ultimate authority on what is Gospel? I think arrogance was the right word to describe you....."

Wody isn't the ultimate authority, but he does know that ultimate authority.

What, you don't believe that God is actively working to save mankind, now?

Good question! It seems that our Arminian friends refer to God's work in salvation in the past tense.

What? You don't believe that God has performed His part for the salvation of mankind?

Psa 68:20 [He that is] our God [is] the God of salvation; and unto GOD the Lord [belong] the issues from death.

Salvation is of God...it is all of Him and none of us

Until you can explain my questions, it is not God's gospel, but yours.

So let me get this straight, only theologians go to Heaven?

I don't think Jesus ever set down the requirement that someone "explain your questions" as a condition of Heaven. Nor by the way did He set down the requirement that anyone believe in a cold and brutal overlay on His Gospel of Good News that attempts to turn Heaven into a glorified masonic lodge with a secret 'theological' handshake. And, by the way, I'm sorry, I don't think anyone can "splain your questions".

The Calvinist can because he can read and accept what the Bible says are the answers. How does one believe--the Calvinist knows!

BTW, Jesus did lay down the requirements for belief in Him! 1 John 5:1

Ho! sister, this Calvinist has a grand ol' time. Let us see what the Arminian has to say in response:

How do I believe in Christ?

Just think RnMonof7, a couple more jokes and you too can be an anti-Calvinist. (Of course you'll have to work to make them good jokes.)
