Theistic Determinism Undermines The Revelation Of Scripture | Leighton Flowers | Calvinism

When you assume that God works the same way all the time and controls everything that happens, i.e. Theistic Determinism, you undermine the revelation of scripture. In fact, to come to that conclusion, you have to read philosophic baggage that is never found in the text into scripture...

“But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—”
‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭4‬-‭5‬ ‭.ESV

I’ve been struggling with calling Calvinism a heresy… but the more I study, the more I feel like they believe in a different Jesus than what the Bible teaches

[rickc.]

Keep up the fight, brother! It is overwhelming to think about your special calling in these end-times! You are a great Watchman on the wall!!!

If Calvanists could just stick to what scripture says then they wouldn't be Calvanists.

It's the composition/division logical fallacy. They do that a LOT.

Have you seen that Derek Webb is going viral for making a music video about being trans? Allie Beth Stuckey (Calvinists) rebukes him for it as if he could do anything about his unbelief?

For God so loved the whole world and wants no one to perish! If anyone perishes then they choose their destiny.

This channel has really helped me see some of the ways us Christians "talk past" each other, using the same words and verses, but meaning different things by them!

I’d like to hear you discuss the way Calvinism and Christian hedonism destroy people’s psychology and how they negatively affect the way people think.

Genesis 20:6
Then God said to him in the dream, “Yes, I know that you have done this in the integrity of your heart, and it was I who kept you from sinning against me. Therefore I did not let you touch her

Isaiah 46:10
I am God there is no other—declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things not yet done, saying, ‘My counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my purpose’.

Just a reminder, be patient with the calvinists in the comment section. Years of indoctrination are hard to escape. Sometimes our different definitions is whats confusing for them to understand whats being said, adding to that the emotional attachment to their calvinism. I was there and it took me three years of research to understand, now i go to previous debates i used to watch and see how understanding both sides helps you actually see who is making a more biblical defense of their view.

The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.

Thank you for making clear the love God has by what His word says.

Our God is in the heavens; he does all that he pleases.
