Anna Carlisle (Some of my last things to post; because I'd talked about doing them sometime in the past. After these I have only about one left to write which I'm not sure if I'll accomplish. ) Scripture against the Calvinist TULIP: Total Depravity (also known as Total Inability and Original Sin) Unconditional Election Limited Atonement (also known as Particular Atonement) Irresistible Grace Perseverance of the Saints (also known as Once Saved Always Saved) Total Depravity (also known as Total Inability and Original Sin) Joh 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that COMETH to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. Jas 1:21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and RECEIVE with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. (A command) Joh 1:12 But AS MANY as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Unconditional Election (i.e. God selects those who are to be saved, without any condition): Lu 7:50 And he said to the woman, Thy FAITH hath saved thee; go in peace. 2Thes. 2:13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation>>> through sanctification of the Spirit and BELIEF of the truth: 1Ti 2:4 Who will have ALL men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. !!! Limited Atonement (also known as Particular Atonement—i.e. Christ died only for the elect): Joh 12:32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. 1Jo 2:2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. 2Co 5:14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: 15 And that he died FOR ALL, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. 1Ti 4:10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of ALL MEN, specially of those that believe. Heb 2:9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for EVERY MAN. Irresistible Grace: Ro 10:21 But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people. Isa 30:15 For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye WOULD NOT. Acts 7:51 Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always RESIST the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye. Prov. 1:24-26 Because I have called, and ye REFUSED; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; Mt 23:37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I HAVE gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and YE WOULD NOT! Perseverance of the Saints (also known as Once Saved Always Saved): 2Pe 2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. 22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. Lu 9:62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. Re 22:19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall TAKE AWAY his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. Re 3:15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 1Co 9:24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye MAY obtain… 27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
