From the page http://www.the-highway.com/compare.htmlAccording to Calvinism:
Salvation is accomplished by the almighty power of the Triune God. The Father chose a people, the Son died for them, the Holy Spirit makes Christ's death effective by bringing the elect to faith and repentance, thereby causing them to willingly obey the gospel. The entire process (election, redemption, regeneration) is the work of God and is by grace alone. Thus God, not man, determines who will be the recipients of the gift of salvation. First, Please re-read this last sentence and really think about the implicit meaning. God, not man, determines who will be the recipients of the gift of salvation. If God chooses certain people to save, he chooses certain people to burn in Hell forever. Why would a loving God create an entire planet full of beautiful, humans only to condemn the majority, forcing them to spend eternity at the wicked hand of Satan? I'm really struggling to understand how anyone could believe this. If anyone has any insight, or believes in calvinism themselves, would you mind explaining this belief to me? As hard as I'm coming down on this, I feel the conclusions I have drawn are not only implicitly stated by the quote from the main page, but are also obviously arrived at when considering calvinistic views. Thanks in advance, Lost
