Why I am no longer a Calvinist!

[mackendylordeus]

Here's the Calvinist position on evangelism: we don't know who the elect are, only God knows. So we preach the gospel to everyone.

Stay away from calvinism.
Stay away from fanaticism of men.
Follow Jesus, become a Christian.

This clip is titled "Why I'm no longer a Calvinist" yet it doesn't give a single reason why he is no longer a Calvinist. 😵‍💫

I thought this video would actually reference an actual reason for not being a Calvinist but I did not find that to be so.

We just call a 4 point Calvinist an Arminian

[Eloweh]

A Calvinist sat down and never stood up, he said “praise God for this eternal rest!”

"All my Father gives to me will come to me, and his will is I lose none". This is a difficult doctrine to understand but it is in the bible in black and white.

I have literally never heard anyone, Calvinist or Arminian, say that it isn’t necessary to evangelize. Though I hear arminians accuse Calvinist’s of this claim regularly.

Charles Spurgeon who was a Calvinist was not a hyper Calvinist. Listen to his sermon “struggles of conscience”.

[tomanderson]

Every video against calvinism is based off of fictitious calvinists I wouldn't even like myself!

I’ve been a Calvinist for years and have never run into a hyper Calvinist in the wild. I say this because often times people that reject Calvinism throw the label out there without much qualification and it poisons the well for people leading them to think that there is a sizable subset of Calvinists who are hyper Calvinist which is not the case. It would be like me pointing out that classic Arminians reject the perseverance of the saints (belief that you can’t lose your salvation). Without any qualifications that could easily lead people to believe that many who reject Calvinism believe you can lose your salvation, even though that is not the case. Intentionally or unintentionally you can mislead people and cause misunderstandings. In theological discussion it is always important to be very clear.

I like the part where he explains why he's no longer Calvinist

[dustinsegers]

Wow, what kinds of Calvinists were you hanging around brother Bobby? I spent 20 years doing street evangelism and abortion clinic outreach work and 90+% of the street evangelists I worked with were Calvinistic.

If the reason you refute Calvinism is because you think it undermine free will then you need to double check and take time to meditate on predestination and the sovereignty of God cause He'll eventually have mercy on whom He will have mercy.

Many claim to be calvinists while they don't understand it therefore paint a bad picture of it that mislead those who reject it cause they don't understand it either and are heretics.

The reason I will not call myself any word with the suffix "-ist" it's because mankind taught me a lesson throughout history. Words are often fine when it presents a positive ideology until they add the suffix "-ism" and "-ist". It's fine to be a human but at the second you embrace humanism and become a humanist believe it or not it is a problem.

Becoming obsessed with a particular theology is a form of idolatry. If someone professes to be a follower of Christ he better not embrace any "ism".

Fun fact brother, of every missionary I have ever met, and every missionary I have ever heard of, they have all held to the doctrines of Grace

[drakevane]

Loved when he talked about why he left Calvinism

[imright]

saying that stopping evangelism is “calvinistic” isn’t true because calvinist’s, like myself, believe in preservance of the saints- meaning that true christians will “preserve” and have the inner drive to evangelize to all.

[johnmyers]

This is not "why" he is no longer a Calvinist. This is him telling us that he started to question a part of Calvinism (limited atonement), then says that he rejects 4p Calvinism, 5p Calvinism, and hyper-Calvinism now. No actual substantive reasons are given TO reject it, other than simply saying that he thinks Calvinism is false. A huge waste of my time.

Answer: "Because I quit taking the Bible on its own terms and simplest reading."
