"Sometimes a view doesn't need to be refuted. Sometimes it just needs to be clearly stated/explained."

How very true.

This is the second best reason to reject Calvinism after the Scriptures (in context) themselves.

I've concluded that the second best path to rejecting Calvinism is simply to understand it.

I’m a Calvinist and I’m starting to doubt it. Limited atonement is more philosophical than biblical.

James White said, “There is no reason for despair.” Calvinism itself is a System of despair.
Thank you for your work. You are a good and faithful brother, Leighton.

Mr. White comes across cocky and condescending.

James White: "God decreed it, so He is not responsible. If He didn't decree it, then He would be responsible." What kind of twisted and boneheaded logic is that???

[LouisaWatt]

The mental gymnastics required for believing Calvinism is bonkers

“God, PLEASE stop determining Leighton to make me look like a half wit” James White.

When I was in the Jehovah's Witnesses occasionally people would say to me "Do you realize your in a cult".... I absolutely REJECTED that accusation BUT when I read the Bible without the lens of being in a cult.... it was only then that I saw scripture in a clear channel helped me significantly as reading through all the comments as well. The Calvinist remind me of a cult, they seem to follow the teachings of John Calvin instead of Jesus Christ. Reading in context I've had to learn that myself. ❤

I don't believe I can be more loving than my God. I can't believe that people admit "this is evil" but it's ok because it's God doing it.
With all the overwhelming mercy and loving kindness you can read in passage after passage in the Bible, with the very gift of His Son and then to say "oh but just for the elect." Nobody else actually had a chance.
I believe in the justice of God and the coming judgement. I admit there are parts of the Bible I don't really understand.
But I will trust in God's love, keep studying His Word and pray to become more conformed to the likeness of Jesus.

As Grudem states on page 330 of his Systematic Theology text, “We confess that we do not understand how it is that God can ordain that we carry out evil deeds and yet hold us accountable for them and not be blamed Himself."

[KISStheSON...]

Oh my goodness...this is so scary.
We are not accountable for our actions because everything we do is "determined".
What a crafty way to feel comforted with your decisions.
Ugh.
Come, Lord Jesus!

In actuality, he is mocking God because, by Calvinistic determinism, he is making light of God’s decree of you not to believe in Calvinism. Nothing but nonsense and it attacks the very character of God and His love for mankind.

[Azurewroth]

Where do Calvinists get the authority or right to speak out against evil if the god they worship decreed evil?

How do you show empathy to someone suffering from disease if you believe God decreed that said person be afflicted with said disease? To feel sorry for that person is to imply that said disease should not have occurred, or that said disease is bad, but if God desired it to be so and decreed it, how could a Calvinist say otherwise?

Does anyone notice White always refers to Dr Flowers as Leighton, but Leighton refers to James White, as Dr White.

[JohnSmith-irwx]

James White is inconsistent because Calvinism is inconsistent

[jeffreybomba]

James White has a PHd in Cognitive Dissonance!

[spacemanspiff]

So, Calvinists made an entire system out of what John Calvin didn’t know… 🤔🙋🏻‍♂️

[Steve-ogii]

Calvinism isn't just horrible Theology, ( which, of course, it is) it is blasphemy against the very nature and character of God! As a result of examining Calvinism for the last 20 years or so, I can't think of even ONE good fruit that it has produced, NOT ONE!

[SaneNoMore]

This is why I say Calvinism is a worldview not just a soteriology, because they have a noticeably different view of who God is than non-Calvinist does.

Thank you for speaking up against the spiritual toxicity of Calvinism!
