Sjors,

This is what I get when I type in the question, &quot;I listened to your sermon last Sunday, and I was wondering, why didn’t God choose everybody to be saved?&quot; in Google search.

&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;This site can’t be reached

The webpage at https://www.gty.org/resources/questions/QA182/why-didnt-god-choose-everyone-to-be-saved might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
ERR_NAME_RESOLUTION_FAILED&lt;/blockquote&gt;

There are, however, other sites that also wrote crtiques on MacArthur&#039;s answer to the little girls question.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s interesting how Calvinist teachers will tout Calvinism is &quot;historical Christianity&quot;. They will selectively quote Calvinist preachers all the way back to Calvin and Luther but from there they jump to the apostle Paul, leaving a thousand or more years of church history untouched. Both Calvin and Luther give full credit to Augustine for their doctrinal beliefs. The reason most contemporary Calvinist preachers only give Augustine an honorary mention at best is because if anyone really looks into his life and work ( the root of Calvinist doctrine) they will discover that the ideology on which Calvinism rests is not on scripture but on a synthesis of Greek philosophy and Gnosticism. Why the debaters against Calvinism don&#039;t use this information is beyond me...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I was saved about four years ago when I realized what scripture had to say about how truly sinful I am And I was convinced that The gospel of Jesus, the Christ was true and personal. Being raised in word of faith movement as a child; watching my step dad walk around the house praying in tongues one day and be a sociopathic abusive person to his family the next. Needless to say I was introduced to Calvinism as an adult; frustrated with the liberal church I was attending, and having the wof experience growing up, I was hooked. I became a zealot for the &quot;doctrines of grace&quot;. That is until someone asked me, given the Calvinist view of predestination and election, was I in danger of hell before I believed the gospel?  I confronted my pastor with the question and got the classic mystery cop out. After some digging it occurred to me that corporate election or the traditionalist Baptist view of scripture left no &quot;mystery &quot; unanswered. I also discovered that the Calvinist view of scripture is just a synthesis of Platonism and Gnosticism applied to scripture, just as wof is Christian Science and Gnosticism. There is a one world religion scheme taking place and it&#039;s subtle and seductive. I think the common thread is Gnosticism. If you take a close look at Catholic, Jehovah witnesses, Muslims, Calvinism... it all has the same common thread of gnostic doctrine....]]></description>

Harassment, false accusations and persecution are usually tactics Calvinists and other false teachers and pastors use to discredit those who expose their heresies. The Mosaïek Church in Fairland, Johannesburg, South Africa (a contemplative cesspool of mystical false doctrines) has banned me from their church premises, all their conferences and other meetings. Two staunch Calvinists (a male and a female) tried to have my blog (Watch and Pray/Waak en Bid) taken down by WordPress. After a long battle and many e-mails I convinced WordPress that their attempt was a malicious attack on me and they decided to allow me to continue. I then decided of my own accord to delete my blog and to join this site as a regular contributor. 

Indeed, Satan is, as Paul wrote, a past master at transforming himself into an angel of light and his disciples are equally adept in transforming themselves into ministers of righteousness, and leading millions astray and into the deepest pits of hell. 

&lt;blockquote&gt;Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds. (2 John 1:9-11)&lt;/blockquote&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Sharon,

I think you misunderstood what I said.  This is what you quoted:

&quot;Macarthur has close ties with Al Mohler, who takes orders from Richard Land, the President of the ERLC of the SBC and a CFR member.&quot;

The meaning is that Richard Land is a CFR member.  I have never said that Macarthur is a CFR member--though I can connect him indirectly to the CFR.
