CALVINIST Pastor Changes His Mind #Provisionism | Pelagianism and Semi-Pelagianism

Calvinist Pastor Sean Cole now believes that Provisionism is Semi-Pelagianism.

In January of 2021, we released an episode where Sean Cole, a Calvinist pastor out of Sterling, Colorado said that Provisionists were not Semi-Pelagians because he understood our view. Around a year and a half later, Brother Sean changed his mind after doing a "deep dive" into some of the historical sources of Semi-Pelagianism and concluded that we are semi-Pelagians after all. This short expresses everyone's (including Leighton Flowers') disappointment in a humorous way.

So a calvanist CAN change their mind!
There is hope in this movement yet boys!

This clip excellently highlights how difficult it is to maintain an independent and intellectually honest point of view while in an echo-chamber of your peers.

I wish just once they could follow that claim up with a reason that i should care.

[Carissa]

Someone doesn’t know what Pelagius believed. Just like he doesn’t know what Provisionism believes.

And all Calvinists are Gnostic Manicheans. See what I did there? How about trying some Crhistian charity instead of name-calling to evoke emotional responses? In other words, drop the logical falacies and make an argument.

Was he saying "I have argued in other podcasts Provisionism is I was wrong and I know it isn't"?

[David-]

The clips are literally 3 years apart. He did a whole episode in between these where he showed why he began to change his mind…

If you understand even a little bit about the history of Palageus (what little we know of him, and sorry if I misspelled his name), it becomes clear that Provisionism is EXTREMELY disconnected from anything the Calvinists accuse it of in regards to him.

[Apollos.]

Busted! You all must be getting to him since he's taken a step back to what really just amounts to name calling. (His frustration is setting in)

[justindenlinger]

Pelagianism was made up by Augustine. He launched a smear campaign against Pelagius out of spite because Pelagius taught some of Augustine’s wealthy patrons that Christians (according to Christs own teachings) shouldn’t live to amass wealth, but should give freely to their fellow Christians in need. This obviously didn’t bolster Augustine’s tithe revenue, and so Augustine destroyed Pelagius’s reputation by straight up lying to get him excommunicated. Augustine even admitted in a letter that he was falsely accusing Pelagius.
Pelagius denied teaching the 14 made-up doctrines for which Augustine accused him.

Some reformed people are double talker..

[franciscafazzo]

Who cares what you think is the reform brothers? The whole reformation approach to scriptures wrong.
What did Christ accomplish on the cross? That's the answer, not what you fail or think

[shingtome]

What on earth is all this jargon? Calvinism is BAD. All they really need to know 😂
