What do you think about tulip or calvanism ?

i will explain to you if you need further details !

What do you think about tulip or calvanism ?
I know what it is...tulip is the 5 points of calvinism.





I believe it promotes man over God... It takes some scriptures and blows them out of proportion to make it look like only a certain handful will go to heaven and the rest go to hell. That makes man glorified...and have the attitude "I'm one of the elect, you're not" which isn't too grand. Look at the Westboro Baptist Church in Kansas that is Calvinist and pickets military funerals calling every person who is military a fag. Yep..that's really God's love right there...(yeah..right)





God gave us the will to not accept salvation...it's one of those quirks. He sure gives us the tugging to get saved, but we don't have to do it. And on the subject of elect...that is wiped out with "whosoever" in John 3:16 and other verses...there is nothing saying "whosoever of the elect believeth" or anything like that. God doesn't force us to be saved...Calvinism supports that we're saved like it or not and only a certain few... which stops missions works.. Jesus HIMSELF said to go out and spread the gospel. So we do...to bring as many to Christ as possible. Calvinism does not accept that...because if there's only a few elect, why bother with everyone else.





Calvinism is a corrupt doctrine that puts man over God... Like it or not, it is what it is...Jesus comes first...not Calvin or his doctrine founded after the Reformation.

Reply:I think this is just the sort of nonsense that christians probably spend their time pondering, instead of asking themselves why they follow the teachings of an ancient work of fiction...
Reply:Misinterpretations of the Bible that gained followers.
Reply:I guess I would be classified as a Calvinist, but there are a couple of points I waver on as I hear different thought on the matter. The "T", "U" and "P" are not a problem, it is the "L" and "I" that I sometimes question. But, I am a man with feet of clay who is still learning, so my wavering may be my humanness coming through.
Reply:Tulip is a flower in my yard that blooms every spring. What did you think it was?
Reply:Truth that humbles sinners and exalts the grace of God.
Reply:explain please.
Reply:I think it's all a bunch of bs. But that's just me.
