Re: "Calvinism: A Doctrine of Devils" Documentary
I'm dismayed by your failure to preempt this exposé:
Our best field operatives have now been outed. His Infernal Majesty is displeased with your dereliction. I've convened the executive emergency committee, but the damage is already irreparable. This could all have been prevented by a few discreet freak accidents.
Those KVJO Baptists are one nasty bunch! I can personally testify to the legalistic, abrasive, ignorant nonsense of these people.
ReplyDeleteI'll look forward to this.... If I follow their views rightly, the beginning segment of the video promises that they'll explain the doctrine that it's actually the haemoglobin and plasma of Jesus that performs some sort of biochemical reaction to effect our salvation. And if bad things happen to you, that's because God lost control of the universe at that point (and only demons teach otherwise). Hopefully they'll explain how that viewpoint works out theologically and pastorally. Oh, and Jean Calvin's real activity was running a corrupt business empire, harming souls for financial profit. They must have discovered some new historical sources. This promises to be pretty special.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, there's also the possibility that they've swapped responsible Biblical exegesis for crude and slanderous sloganeering?
