If Justification is Immutable…

July 30, 2021August 12, 2021 TheSire

I was asked to comment on this article: http://www.christcovenantcolorado.com/if-justification-is-immutable/ What these theologians fail to realize is that by using this argument, they undermine the doctrine of sola fide. Scripture is clear that the entrance into justification is by faith alone and … Continue reading If Justification is Immutable…

The Natural Man: Calvinism and the Ability to Understand

June 1, 2021April 19, 2023 TheSire

I recently had an exchange with Leighton Flowers over the issue of a serious mistake Leighton has made for years. This is conflating the inability to believe with the inability to understand. That often leaves Leighton’s arguments confused and misguided. … Continue reading The Natural Man: Calvinism and the Ability to Understand

Does Compatibilism entail Hard Determinism?

May 31, 2021May 31, 2021 TheSire

This was written by Colton Carlson in response to Leighton’s argument that Calvinism entails fatalism: I will point out one problem that I heard, and kept hearing, around the 20-30 minute mark, and that is when Flowers attempts to argue … Continue reading Does Compatibilism entail Hard Determinism?

Can a Christian lose salvation?

May 19, 2021 TheSire

I think there have been good articles written on the issue of preservation of the saints on other websites. I think it would be good to gather a few passages that don’t often make the list here. http://triablogue.blogspot.com/2019/02/can-christian-lose-salvation.html 2 Peter … Continue reading Can a Christian lose salvation?

An Irrevocable Salvation

March 11, 2021March 31, 2021 TheSire

Romans 11 28 In relation to the gospel they are enemies on your account, but in relation to God’s choice they are beloved on account of the fathers; 29 for the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
