Shouldn’t we embrace Arminianism?

is not necessarily eternal security . its more of those who are truly saved will stay with it.. if they stray they will return, actually when it comes to someone else's salvation . we soon form a opinion on who is saved and who is not. but if we do it were ok

That's perseverance of the sAints ,same wording
 
Total Depravity could be accepted by Arminians, though not defined as the TULIP-sniffers do.

God's preveinent grace enables a person to choose Christ.

Man is not a robot, an automaton, doomed from the womb as Calvin would say

Its is ,trust me I have heard the reformed pastors word it the same as those one pointers


I quote Adrian Rogers ,

Sometimes ,chikdren want to go one way that is harmful,and the parents drag them by arm to safety


Now Calvin ,our hearts are continually idolatrous and we always seek idols,God in his mysterious ways will bring men back to serving him,before death ,if not they were never truly saved

Really not different
 
Simplest description of Calvinism vs Arminianism
In Calvinism, it is determined from eternity past what will be the ultimate state of a person, with no regard for what they think, do or believe.

In Arminianism, man has a FREE WILL CHOICE even though born in sin.

lol it's all yours .. i have nothing else more to contribute.. but i leave this parting thought . they would say the same with your way of belief .i have studied this out for years .neither side can find a scripture that says Check mate
 
"Individuals are born, who are

doomed from the womb

To certain death"

Calvin, Institutes, Book 3, Chapter 23, Paragraph 6

Check and Checkmate
 
You don't need a Scripture, you need what Calvin himself wrote, . As he tried to regurgitate Augustine's Double Predestination from 1000 years before his time WHICH THE ANCIENT CHURCH HAD ALREADY REJECTED !!

The ancient church rejected both Pelagius as well as the double predestination of Augustine - deemed that neither was right

Predestination

A brief explanation of the doctrine of predestination by the Rev. Dr. David E. Leininger.
leiningers.com

I,have not heard that idea taught in church .that concept of determinism implies wht even reach the lost .

Hypercalvinism ,not taught in my church or the ones I do know
 
In order to embrace Arminianism, you need to look at what it rejected - the double predestination of Augustine which the ancient church had already rejected.

I personally am sorry there ever had to be any such thing as Arminianism.

The Church had rightly rejected the extremes that both Pelagius and Augustine tried to put over.

Calvin vomited back up the double predestination of Augustine 1000 years later, his followers came along with all these speculations about "God's DECREES"

Supralapsarian, Infralapsarianism, etc. Arminius understood all the talk about the decrees, he spoke the language of it, he was able to refute the regurgitation of the doom from the womb horrors - the corona of Calvinism was gaining ground, it was Wesley in England that revived ARMINIAN thought - Wesley published The ARMINIAN Magazine...

Some early Methodists like Whitefield and Toplady were Calvinists
 
Things don't happen in a political vacuum, by the time Methodism spread to America, Coke and Asbury had to stand against Church of England and King George
 
Yes, Michelina, you should embrace Arminianism.

You won't see it discussed fairly on message-boards - they are full of TULIP-pukers like those hassling you.
