God hates evil. People who refuse to repent but wallow in evil will receive his wrath.

And God hates certain people. It specifically says so, in the Word of God.

But God did NOT pick a list of names to hate from before the beginning of the world and compel them to sin so he could judge them for doing what they could not help doing.

What a ridiculous characterization of Calvinists, and our expressly-Biblical beliefs.

If you're not going to debate your opponents on what they actually believe, don't even bother. You're not debating, you're just Bearing False Witness, a deliberate and willful violation of the Ninth Commandment.

It's an Abomination against God for you to Bear False Witness as you do. The way you dishonestly smear your opponents with you own deceitful and malicious fabrications, you're just polluting the thread for those of us who actually want to discuss Scripture like Christians.

If that's how you intend to "debate", with snarky lies and intentional malice -- then all I have to say to you is, get thee behind me.

Just wow.

“.....you’re just polluting the thread for those of us who actually want to discuss Scripture LIKE CHRISTIANS”

Is this post of yours Exhibit A of “Christian discussion”?

CC --> that is the so-called "hyper-Calvinist" viewpoint. We assume from Dr. E's posts (with whom this debate originated) that those are her viewpoints (please correct us if we are wrong, Dr. E) --> you may not share these, but they are a hyper-version of the Calvinist viewpoint.

No one is bearing false witness -- this is what the previous posts led us to believe was the debating point -- it is not about what you individually believe.
