Matt Slick's Debate Response

Immediately following the debate on "Is Total Depravity True?", Matt hosted a live video chat where he invited viewers to come on and discuss the debate. During this, he repeatedly asserted Warren was mistaken, in error, a Pelagian and teaching heresy, but didn't offer any substantive rebuttal or defense.

At one point, a guest seemed to mock Warren for studying the Bible and not submitting to Matt's teaching. Matt did not correct this man in any way.

No one this side of heaven has perfect doctrine and must work out their own salvation with fear and trembling, studying to show themselves approved. Warren is open to correction, but on the topic of Total Depravity, he is absolutely correct; it is an assault on Scripture.

Logic is like Kryptonite to a Calvinist.

[inTruthbyGrace]

this is a satisfying refutation to this kind of response so frequently offered by doctrinally and logically defeated Calvinists who present arrogance to their fellow club members in lieu of sound, evidence-based argumentation, reassuring each other that their _consensus_ substitutes any meaningful consideration of the subject.

[Soteriology]

I have enough time to get on a program and talk about how you misrepresented Calvinism’s but I don’t have enough time to give you any specifics. 🙄

[Sine-of-the-Times]

I am sure we all know that the specifics were divinely decreed and determined, and that Matt was likewise determined to forget them and further determined to not have time to engage with them…

[Coins]

The Matt Slick vs Deacon Ananias debate is the most entertaining….I’d encourage everywhere here to watch

[IdolKiller]

I don't know why this is just now showing up? I posted this months ago. Weird.

[dustinpaulson]

I for one am convinced....

that Matt Slick doesn't have an argument or an audience to share it with.

[noelenliva]

I'm about as convinced that Slick goes to the gym as I am about him doing Bible study.

[johnathanpritchett]

Good to hear Slick going to the gym… he certainly needs to…

[missiletoad]

Ooooh that Spock clip is a great summation, gonna remember that, thanks!

[JohnQPublic]

Calvinists conducting Bible studies is an oxymoron.

[jacoboverstreet]

“Assertions made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.”

[humanson]

Why is it so hard to find a humble Calvinist??

[craigjoyner]

Lots of assertions from Matt, while no one is there to rebut, as usual.

[thedadvantage]

I went to lunch with Matt Slick. He was insufferable. I managed to piss him off so bad he stood up in the middle of Applebees and screamed a bunch of insults at me then walked out and left us with his check. Real swell guy.

[christian_gamer_guy]

I'm sure there is a part of him that is terrified that he's been wrong this whole time about a lot of things, and he's too afraid to get to the truth of the matter.

[mannycano]

He pretty much got smoked in that debate and now he's doubling

[omnitheus]

Slick has greater nuclear melt downs than Chernobyl... Dtill remember him hanging up on Leighton Flowers lol. He didn't know what to do when you just graciously conceded the Pelagius point to get the debate back on topic. Still chuckle about that.

2 Timothy 3:15
“And that from a child thou hast known the HOLY SCRIPTURES, which are able to MAKE THEE WISE unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.”

Colossians 4
5 Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.
6 Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.

James 3


14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

2 Timothy 2
24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness INSTRUCTING those that OPPOSE THEMSELVES; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may RECOVER THEMSELVES out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

Proverbs 19:20
“Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.”

Yummy, yummy!

Proverbs 20:18
“Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.” 💌💪🔨
