The world missions movement was founded by Calvinists.

I didn't know Jesus was a Calvinist.

Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

This Calvinist presumption is another example of their arrogant defiance of Jesus authority as head of His church, which consists entirely of those who have become innocent through faith in His blood, the innocence of children, which Calvinists deny.

Of course, I was referring to the modern WMM, founded at the beginning of the Eighteenth Century (for example, William Carey et al).

You don't clearly even know the Lord, friend.

Well, see, Hank, there you go -- you learn something new every day.

You're Welcome.

Although I would reserve, it would probably be more chronologically-accurate (and deferential) to say instead that, on the subject of Absolute Predestination (and many other subjects), "John Calvin was a Jesus-ist". That is to say, John Calvin's beliefs on Absolute Predestination were (of course) the same as Jesus Christ's beliefs on Absolute Predestination.

Arrogant? Is it "arrogant" for you to hope and wish DEATH on someone, Hank?

Is it? And you know what I'm talking about.
