The Withering Flower – The Fad of TULIP Theology 8

Now, with all of that said, let me restate the three main points: 1. My God loves everybody, equally at all times, the god of 5 point Calvinism does not. Therefore we serve a different God. Some will say that God loves everyone, He just loves the elect more. That is favoritism and God plainly says that He is not a respecter of persons so this contradicts Scripture. The Bible says God is Love not that God is different types of love. Also, let... Read More

5. Perseverance of the Saints is another deception. Most people think it is Eternal Security, but, that just isn’t the case.

This is what the Calvinistic doctrine... Read More

Through the teaching of this doctrine, you create a different Cross and a different Christ... Read More

The Withering Flower – The Fad of TULIP Theology 4

A Different God, Different Cross, and Different Gospel! These three claims are very serious and are not to be taken lightly. If they are true, in which I have no doubt that they are, then this is an issue that needs to be separated from and swiftly dealt with before, as a cancer, it spreads through the Church. These are the very essentials of our faith. Without them, we have no faith. All I have heard from people about this issue is the fact... Read More
