Carlos<br><br>Mainly I am not talking about an article in particular; I am talking about some Calvinists that I have heard on Paltalk and other forums. I rarely go to Paltalk anymore other than to listen to debates such as when James White was on there recently and to see if one of my friends or relatives is there. But I can tell you personally that some of the language that both Calvinists and Arminians use against each other on there is far from what Christians should act. Do not get me wrong, I do believe that we can and should be zealous to defend the truth, but we shouldn't do so by the methods of the world.<br>What bothers me most about this, is there are non-Christian that go to Paltalk and I can only imagine the impression this leaves on them.<br><br>Perhaps you have never witnessed this kind of behavior from Calvinists before, if so I would recommend you go to Paltalk and see this behavior for yourself.<br><br>Tom

In reply to:
...sometimes it is hard to read someone's intent on the printed page.
Good point. It seems that Hunt is clearly intending to give a "true" explanation to his followers why this system of belief is harmful, to some extent. His honesty with them, though not with the Bible, or himself, is admirable, though I would add, worthy of pity. May God show him the errors of his ways, and preserve the integrity of His own Word, as He has for the last few thousands of years!
Grace is but glory begun;
Glory is but grace perfected!

I've seen one site that claimed Calvinism doesn't believe in eternal security...
True godliness is a sincere feeling which loves God as Father as much as it fears and reverences Him as Lord, embraces His righteousness, and dreads offending Him worse than death~ Calvin

MacArthur is a good teacher! You are blessed to be working aside him in the ministry of God  I feel similarly blessed to have worked at Dr. Mohler's seminary (Southern Baptist Seminary in Louisville, KY) as a library assistant. If it is God's will, I hope to work there full-time when I get out of graduate school.<br><br>Marie

And years ago, a hyper-Dispie Baptist gave me a book, allegedly of C.H. Spurgeon's sermons, that had been heavily edited so that it appeared that Spurgeon was an Arminian! [img]http://www.the-highway.com/w3timages/icons/rofl.gif" alt="rofl" title="rofl[/img] When I showed this individual some of the same sermons printed by Pilgrim Press, he was very much surprised. He was cut to the quick when he realized that Spurgeon was a Calvinist. [img]http://www.the-highway.com/w3timages/icons/evilgrin.gif" alt="evilgrin" title="evilgrin[/img]<br><br>In His Grace,
