In reply to Deon Barnard. Dagsê Deon. Baie dankie vir jou inset. Dit is voorwaar baie bemoedigend. Bid asseblief vir ons om steeds getrou te bly aan Jesus Christus en sy Woord sodat mense wat in allerhande valse leringe vasgevang is, mag loskom en gered word, diegene wat nog nie gered is nie.

Hoe waar is die opmerking nie dat Armenianisme voor jou deur gegooi word indien jy Calvyn en sy leer verwerp. Ek het ‘n lang pad met die NGK gestap. Nooit uitverkiesing behoorlik ‘gehoor’ nie en dit was eers in 2003 dat ek die NGK verlaat het en selfstudie oor verskillende geloof aspekte gedoen het, dat ek my ware pad met my Here ontdek het. Ek het my by ‘n Baptiste gemeenskap aangesluit en vir die eerste keer ‘teaching’ ipv. ‘preaching’ ervaar[nie dat lg. nie ‘n plek het nie]. Nadat ek Vedder se ‘A Short History of the Baptists’, Verduin se ‘ The Reformers and Their Stepchildren’ en E H Broadbent se boek ‘The Pilgrim Church’ bestudeer het, het ek geleidelik die pad begin sien. Dave Hunt se ‘What Love is This’ het Calvinisme vir my ontmasker as ‘n lasterlike leer. Ek en ‘n paar ander gelowiges in ons klein geloof gemeenskap, ervaar dikwels Calvyn en Piper in ons kele afgedruk.
Ek is baie beïndruk met jul ‘Statement of Faith’ en die vele aspekte wat deur jul bediening aangeraak word. Die ontmaskering van Spurgeon binne die vrymesselary is vir my ‘n ‘eye opener’. Ek doen al jare lank opleeswerk oor hierdie sataniese godsdiens en ken dit beter as sommige VM’s self.
Ek sal hierdie webblad wyd en syd aanbeveel – julle dek ‘n verstommende hoeveelheid pitkos rakende ons geloof in ons Here.

TOTDAT HY KOM!

In reply to Paul.

Paul wrote:

Indeed, one of the more severe sins in Calvinism is to interpret “world” in John 3:16 in terms of the elect only. Are you also one of these sinners?

Sometimes, just sometimes, you can understand what the Bible says just by reading it and believing it, submitting to the Word of God. We can understand that if we have a problem with God’s Word, the problem is us, not the text, and not God himself. We don’t need to defend him for what we conceive as being just. God is just. We are marred by sin. Carry on with your theological gymnastics!

People use this verse to say that the day of their death has been foreordained. Beside it not even being the context of limbs being formed, and days being a modifying adverb to that well established context, it is patently illogical. Shall we say that those who commit suicide did so according to God’s decree? Shall we say that the axe murderer is not responsible for taking a life because God was holding the axe? As usual, this illogic, conflates foreknowledge with foreordination and imposes it on a passage that whose subject is completely different.
