Isaiah 46:10 Twisted To Teach Theistic Determinism | Calvinism Proof-Texts Answered

Answering Calvinist twisting of Isaiah 46:10 to defend the Gnostic heresy of theistic determinism. Refuting the man-centered Calvinist Gnostic heresy of theistic determinism and its logical conclusion of God being the author of sin and worker of iniquity!

Calvinist Gnostic heresies of fatalism & theistic determinism are inconsistent with the full counsel of God's word:
*God is not the author of confusion (1 Cor. 14:33)
*God is not the cause of sin or temptation to sin (Jam. 1:13-17; Gal. 2:17-18, cf. Jam. 3:14-17, 1 Jn. 2:15-16)
*Not all rulers are ordained by God (Hos. 8:4)
*Not all counsel is ordained by God (Isa. 30:1, cf. 1 Chron.10:13-14)
*King Saul's rebellion was not ordained by God (1 Sam. 13:13; 1 Sam. 15:11; 1 Sam. 15:23-26; 1 Sam. 15:35)
*The conduct of the Judaizers was not ordained by God (Gal. 5:6-8, cf. Gal. 1:6-9)
*Israel's child sacrifice was not ordained by God (Jer. 7:31; Jer. 19:5; Jer. 32:35)
*The heathen's affliction was not ordained by God (Zech. 1:15)
*God did not decree the unrighteous social injustice in Israel (Isa. 10:1-4)
*God didn't ordain the false prophets to speak or act in His name (Jer. 23:21; Jer. 23:32; Jer. 14:14-15; Jer. 27:15; Jer. 28:15; Jer. 29:9; Jer. 29:31)
*God doesn't decree the outcome of all events (Isa. 5:2-4)
*Not all men do the will of God (Lk. 7:29-31; Matt. 23:37-39)

Just a simple question here, not to give my stance on this.

But say if Calvinism WAS true...(just the doctrine of predestination, there's much more to Calvinism)...what would be wrong with that?

I don't think you understand that God does things for His own glory. The wicked are created for the day of judgement.

And you never actually explained how Isaiah 46:10 doesn't show God's sovereign decree of whatever comes to pass. Just because you say that doesn't mean it's true.
