Question: if I bought 3 large pizza for a 5th grade class with 10 students for graduation. And come to find out 2 students didn't eat the pizza so therefore not everyone left Full. So does that nullify my intentions to feed everyone?

[robschmitt]

Believing what Jesus did and putting your faith in Him is the way to salvation, plain and simple. It doesn't matter if not believing is a sin or not. We must acknowledge Jesus' sacrifice and choose to follow Him. This is God's word. Not believing is a part of our free will. What does that have to do with us sacrificing our lives daily for Jesus. If you don't believe, you won't receive the Holy Spirit. Having the Holy Spirit is required for salvation no matter what sins you commit.

1 John 2:2


‭ and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world.

[Jesusisking]

Can someone please help me out with this question... Even though I am not a Calvinist (TULIP), am I still going to heaven? I believe that Jesus died for my sins, have turned from my ways (repented), and trust in Christ alone for my salvation. I also believe Jesus loves everyone, died for all, and wants all to be saved (but few will come to the narrow gate). Again, I am not a Calvinist and disagree with their 5 points but love the Lord.

Calvinists: “scripture alone!!’”

Also Calvinists: “1 John 2:2 doesn’t really mean that”

[daltonnelson]

Please answer this question...In 2 Peter 3:9, it states that God's will is for all* to come to repentance. If God chooses who is saved and who isn't...then why isn't everyone saved?

The answer: God offers salvation to all. God loves us too much to force us to do believe in Him. God gives us the choice to accept or reject His gift of salvation that He offers to all* people.

Timothy 2:3-6 - *all*
John 3:16 - *whoever*
Titus 2:11 - *all*

God draws us *all* to Him!

John 12:32- And I,  if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw *all* peoples to Myself

God offers the gift of salvation to those who believe in Him!

John 6:47 - he who believes in Me has everlasting life.

Read Ephesians 2. If we are saved by faith and not our works...that makes it clear that faith is not* a work.

‭‭I John‬ ‭2:2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.

[shooterheming]

Have you read the verse John 3:16? That gives some explanation for who is saved and how belief connects you to salvation.

[OrginalNoob]

How do you miss represent provisionalism so much then proceed to say we call God’s character into question. And on Calvinism you have Gods character, to use CS Lewis’ words, devil worship. Calvinism says God decrees someone to be blind and then punishes that person for being blind. In other words, God makes a person who is unable to repent. Then punishes them for not repenting. That makes God the author of every sin. Lewis was right.

[Joshua-gkbc]

Weren't you only saved when you believed in Jesus, even though your sins were paid for before that?
In the same way, can it be that sins have been paid for others, but they will never accept it?

[Believer]

Why is anybody in hell? Because there will be many people who will not accept His sacrifice for their sins, and they will hold onto their own sins even into hell.

[tonya]

I've heard some people say it has to be activated by their choosing. I know how ridiculous this is however this is what I've heard as well as the unbelief reason. Please do a video on that one as well, I would love to be able to hear your rebuttal so I could learn the best way to refute it. 🙏 Thanks

[toolegittoquit_]

Jesus' sacrifice was either for the elect or it is not effectual.

If it were for all men, then all men would be saved. Since all are NOT saved, only the first point can be true

[paulski]

Funny how Calvinists are always pointing out the speck in the eyes of other Christians while ignoring the “cultish” logs in their own eyes.

[joshuaj.jackson]

Love your ministry guys. Love you guys and pray for God to to continue to bless your work and ignite your hearts for the Lord. But please, don’t strawman those who disagree on limited atonement. People believe the Bible on (everything they understand including:) the facts that God loved the world, died once for all and if you believe you will be saved; if one goes on sinning thereby reject Jesus there no longer remains a sacrifice for their sins; for there is no other name by which we must be saved. They choose to pay for their own sins. But for all who trust Jesus (glory to the Holy Spirit), they are saved and the blood of Jesus Christ (which was paid in full and sufficient for all) cleanses them for all unrighteousness. In summary, Jesus, just like the sacrificial lamb of the Old Testament it bled for all who trust and obey Him.

[zionred]

Wow, those are some amazing gymnastics you keep performing to try and make Calvinism fit into Scripture.

[jmac]

It may not say those exact words the way I wrote them, but God's intent is crystal clear.
