I've noticed over the past couple of months what appears to be a full court press by Satanists to represent Satanism as imaginary, paganism and neo-paganism as natural, and Christianity as extreme idiotic zealots.

I suspect there may be some very active Satanists who have dedicated themselves to promoting Calvinism, have studied it, found linkages between Calvinist doctrines, and have honed the ability to link between doctrines whenever refuted by Scripture, then if the argument relaxes to doctrine they will quote Scripture and twist context to speak back in terms of misguided doctrine.

The theology being presented supports the soulish man and I wouldn't be surprised if many soulish people begin to look to Calvinism as a panacea for a relationship with God, because they attempt to satisfy their conscience (soul) by placing faith in Calvinism first, then identifying Calvinism with God and reading Scripture, believe they have self justified their position from God. All the while numbing themselves in scar tissue of the soul.

Limited vs unlimited atonement is a good example. The Calvinist of today, confuses unbelievers going to hell as justification for a limited atonement. They fail to realize He has already been judged for ALL sins. The cross was all judgement. Forgiveness occurs upon acceptance of Him through faith. If one sins again, the believer is still indwelt by the Holy Spirit, but no longer filled and acts in a reprobate fashion. For many of today's Calvinists, this nicely explains their lack of any love for their fellow man.

It also explains why they never exhibit any desire to communicate good news in a Christ like fashion to unbelievers. They could care less if they insult unbelievers, because they sincerely don't believe their message will ever lead the listener to consider Christ, because only God will lead the unbeliever to faith. Accordingly in their hatred of their fellow man, they blindly render insult after insult to him, unwittingly serving a false god, dissuading some future believers from receiving Christ.

Not all who study Calvin act in that fashion, but it seems to be a present day doctrine being used by the Adversary to attack the faith.

Having read this several times, it makes no sense. The rest of the post wasn't much better.

C'mon C, you can do better than that. Take the next step, libel all Calvinists with that statement. You know you want to.

OK, so to understand you, first one of us might not be saved, and now some of us are Satanists. Er, OK, Mr. pompous Peacock.

LOL! The innuendo here is truly amazing. Not content to question my salvation because I don't agree with your convoluted doctrine, now you want to imply that Calvinism has been hi-jacked by Satanists? Unbelieveable! I would hope that any reasoning person would see your post for what it is: lies, slander, and outright fabrication, because you can't deal with the doctrine. Save the name calling for another thread. I did not call anyone a name here, and I don't want this thread to degenerate into that. Deal with the doctrine instead of starting with the ad hominem attacks. You know better than that!

Huh? I am so confused by this post. Fru does this make any sense to you?
