Calvinists: Accepting a free gift is not a “work”

December 29, 2011

Emotionally invested Calvinists should consider that a free gift is not “earned” by a man in sin. Sin is what we do or actively think that gets us death, as the “wages of sin is death”. There comes a moment in a child’s life when he decides to do the wrong thing, the equivalent of “eat the forbidden fruit” of disobedience to the laws of nature‘s God we are also born with. The child has the innocence of Eden, for which “Unless ye be converted and become as a little child, ye shall in now wise inherit the kingdom of God“.

—Little children go to heaven, Jesus said so, and we must become like them to inherit the kingdom. Accepting the gift of salvation from death and hell.

—“Whosoever will” is a cruel depraved joke itself if it means “Whosoever God will”, that is a big whopping missing word there. If strong Calvinism is true then God is all the monster many atheists accuse him of being.
