This video is the answer to a question I never asked: "What would a classic Rankin/Bass Christmas special look like if made by Calvinists?" Brilliantly done!
@@RunFunkyWolf Just like the 4th of July (another favorite holiday of mine). Are you some kind of holiday-phobic JW? Something being man-made and not in the Bible doesn't automatically make it bad. Modern medicine relies heavily on man-made equipment and textbooks and is nowhere in the Bible. Modern transportation depends on man-made vehicles and is nowhere in the Bible. The electronic device you used to access UA-cam and post your reply to my comment is man-made and is nowhere in the Bible. It's only bad if it directly violates Biblical commands, like worshipping idols or committing sexual immorality, which were the reasons that actual pagan practices (which were centered around such things in ways modern holidays are not) were condemned.
@@DamonNomad82 Never said it was bad. Just that it was man made. And BTW I don't celebrate the unitedstatian 4th of July or any patriotic day. Patriotism has become idolatry nowadays.
My heart sake when I heard Calvinism theology for the first time. I'm so grateful for people who go through Scripture and make videos that prove otherwise. This one points out the absurdity of it. Thank you.
Praise God for His saving Word...so clear and concise without the distorted Calvinistic lenses. Thank you for this creative video. Merry Christmas to you and alll!!
Again Warren, you knocked it out of the park bro! There's more truth in these little videos than hours and hours of preaching trying to convince people of the lunacy of calvinism. Keep it up man!!!
Brilliant video. Can you make one video where the Calvinist version of God is making a person resist being persuaded by a Calvinist apologist (James White), and the apologist gets frustrated the unbeliever isn’t convinced. Basically, God playing puppets.
🤣🤣🤣 I got distracted and thinking I was watching something serious until the angels said "Just for you David" and the other shehards said "Wait how does that makes sense" 🤣
@@gordonwells1626 Because the video is not about what Calvinism really is. It is about an exaggerated stereotype, typical of people who do comedy. However, it's sad that people here really think that's what Calvinism is and that somehow this video debunks or perhaps exposes it. I myself find the video funny. But reading the comments here made me really sad by the ignorance and the love people show for their apparent autonomy. People these days are too attached to what they while not too concerned about who God is.
@@ManassehJones I am very saddened to see all this. It is just like the Israelites forgetting who brought them out of the land of Egypt. Mocking the almighty God.
John 3:16 For God so loved the WORLD (not Israel nor the elect) but anyone in the world who would "believe" in HIM. He pours out His spirit to "comfort" us while we remain on this fallen, sinfilled earth. Until the time comes when He will make ALL things NEW and no longer fallen. That is our blessed Hope. 🕊
Truly gold. Cutting. The gift of Jesus at Christmas for all men with joy is such a savage contrast to wilful random election of the Calvinist god. Loved the shepherd scene.
This is pure gold! I watched you on Soteriology101 brodcast the other day and had to watch the whole video. "Vipers in diapers", That had me gut laughing!
Bruh... this is pure gold... 🎅😂 I did get a little teary-eyed at the intro to the Orphanage .. it's sad because they really believe that *"God sovereignly ordained the perfect number of children that lose their parents and live lives of poverty and sickness for His glory and good pleasure."*
Yeah, I'm pretty sure you don't have to be a Calvinist to think that God decides when a person is conceived or when a person dies, or that God's glory is the purpose of God's plan for the universe.
@@ProductBasementYou completely missed the point of contention. Calvinism is the belief that God creates some people in Christ for salvation and the rest reprobate for damnation. Apparently His word is wrong and He takes pleasure in the death of the wicked????
@JohnK557 I understand the basic contention of Calvinism but my point is that God does indeed ordain some people to be impoverished orphans, even in free-will theology, because God controls conception and death, the two events that cause people to be orphans. I'm not defending Calvanism here, so I'm not engaging with the argument that "Calvinism is false because it contradicts a Bible verse"
@JohnK557 Hi, But there's a difference between God's moral will and sovereign will. God willed to crush His Son (Isaiah 53:10), even though He isn't sadistic (Ezek. 18:32). In saving people, God adopts and makes His them His children. He doesn't just make them "saveable." John 10:28-29 "I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of My hand." John 6:44 "No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up on the last day." God bless,
What a great take down of the early Reformers' distortion of Scripture. God's forgiveness and love has been given to all that we might walk in it and love others, not just abstractly, but for real.
Jude 4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were BEFORE OF OLD ORDAINED to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. Yea you're right, the word/concept of being preordained is a silly, unbiblical concept. We should just rely on human emotion to reveal the nature of reality - 🙃
@@destroyingtheworksofthedev9349 the issue is Classical Theists and Calvinists don't believe God literally PREordained anything, just as they deny God literally FOREknew anything... yet they use these terms as a weapon to bludgeon their ideological rivals.

Calvinists have no Christmas. In their doctrime, whether Jesus comes or not , it makes no difference. They were chosen before the foundation of the world before baby Jesus drew the first breath on earth
This is gold! 😂😂 The rubbing it in jokes made my day 😂😂 What filth calvinism is...May the Holy Spirit drive people away from this heresy into the Truth. Got here from Sam Shamoun, keep up your work Idol Killer, it's great.
Has anyone noticed? For over 350 years the English speaking people have echoed “peace on earth good will toward men ” ! I am shocked at what I just found out ,most all modern Bibles have changed Luke 2:14 to something like “ peace on earth to men in whom God is well pleased”. This started with RV 1881 and ASV 1901 and on to almost all the rest. So peace was promised to only those who God is pleased. To those who God chose instead of those through out the whole earth . Don’t let these modern versions rob from you what the the heavenly host proclaimed. “On earth peace goodwill toward men” Study for yourself the reason for the change, hint : a small letter “s “ at the end of one Greek word found in Only three Greek manuscripts. Continue to rings the bells on Christmas Day “Pease on earth Goodwill toward men”
“Co Produced by: Who are are you oh man?” That’s very clever. God must have predestined you to make all the good jokes that the Lutheran Satire guy is predestined not to.
amazing! Hallelujah! God sovereignly elected me from eternity past and not my terrible reprobate neighbor. Now my Christmas is more meaningful then theirs! Instant classic, Warren, I love it!
Don’t forget about evanescent grace! That reprobate didn’t “want” to be saved of his own accord, God actually gave this person a small amount of his own grace to make this person temporarily believe that he desired to be united to God and to be saved, only to take this grace away prior to his death so that he could fall back into sin and damnation. So for any Calvinists that claim that God doesn’t damn anyone he just doesn’t act to save them this is actually not true in all cases. According to Calvin God actually does act within the life of certain individuals to give them an illusion of salvation, but ultimately prevents it from happening.
Our two usual suspects have been going off in this comment section like two devils in a church not just about the video, but about Christmas itself! They're comedy gold!
Since we got AI, might as well make good use of it for God's purposes. Or in Calvinistic terms, for God's predetermined and self-glorifying purposes, regardless of how horrible they seem.
If you both have the foreknowledge that Manny will be here, that must mean you both pre-determined Manny to be here… right? 😉 Isn’t that how Calvinists think foreknowledge works?
@@GhostBearCommander "foreknow" is the same as Decree. Right? Awesome! Isaiah 10:1 Woe unto them that foreknow unrighteous foreknowledge, and that write grievousness which they have prescribed. Luke 2:1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a foreknowledge from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. Ezra 7:13 I make a foreknowledge, that all they of the people of Israel, and of his priests and Levites, in my realm, *which are minded of their own freewill* to go up to Jerusalem, go with thee. Oops. Howd that slip in there?
Psalm 68:5 CSB “God in his holy dwelling is a father of the fatherless and a champion of widows.” Merry Christmas and Happy Incarnation “'HE BECAME WHAT WE ARE SO THAT WE MIGHT BECOME WHAT HE IS'”
@@aletheia8054The earliest mention of Christmas was from 336 iirc. That puts it before the Great Schism, so the entire church celebrated it, not just roman catholics. Even the famous Saint John Chrysostom argued that the date of Christmas was based on public census records and could also be gleaned from Luke chapter 1. Now don't be a grinch and tell people not to celebrate the birth of God. I can't think of anything more worthy of celebration than the incarnation.
“Love” is truly emptied of all meaning from a Calvinist god. The only agent in Salvation has sufficiently paid all sin having poured out all wrath on Jesus, then would choose ANY for eternal torture must be an evil being.
They say God only poured out the wrath He had for the elect on Jesus but is storing up His wrath for the reprobate. The problem is that the Calvinist view of election equating salvation is faulty and God never poured out His wrath on Jesus, He's storing it up for the day of judgment. The first coming was for healing, redemption and deliverance.
@@IdolKiller You deny all wrath & hostility that resulted from human sin was absorbed by Jesus? What exactly did Jesus do on the cross in your view? Was He not punished for our sin?
@androcracy I affirm the Redemptive Models held by the Early Church: Ransom, Recapitulation, Moral Influence, Restored Icon and Christus Victor. I have a LOT of content on the Worl of Christ here on this channel. I believe Jesus assumed the totality of the human nature, underwent life as one of us, lived sinlessly, suffered, died, rose again and ascended bodily into heaven and thereby redeeming every aspect of humanity and setting us free from the hold of the grave, lives of futility and destroyed the works of the devil... all while drawing all men to Himself. (Not universal salvation, but universal provision)
Bittersweet Truth🤔 Awesome for all your hard work for the babies not vipers in diapers, of which Jesus takes to himself if they die young, and also died for thereby giving the ability of salvation to all at the age of accountability.
@@IdolKiller indeed. Precious little ones. I hope these reform leaders will see their error as even Matt Slick was forced to conceed unknowingly in your debate with him.
The Calvinist preachers must hate this. Although funny and true, it's sad that people actually follow John Calvin,....not only a false teacher but a despicable human being who supported the murder of non calvinists. Run away!
After seeing the clip from Alistair Sim's 1951 version of "A Christmas Carol" in your video, I am so thankful that a Calvinist did not make that film. It would've been so short. This video really hits the target. Great job! I am going to ask a Calvinist friend to watch it and tell me if this is how Calvinists should preach on Christmas and if not, why not. Also, you used clips from "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town." In that special in its original form, Chris Kringle sings to the Winter Warlock (please, call him Winter) that "it's simply a matter of election, to vote for a chance to be reborn." Is that Calvinism? Maybe it's Calvo-Armenian Traditionalism or something like that. I don't know. Lol. Anyway, thank you for this and have a blessed Christmas.
I am curious how that orphanage clip originally ended after all their toys were broken...? I suspect it would have ended on a note of hope which is exactly how Calivinism falls short as you depicted, because they have no hope to offer a hurting world.
I saw the original cartoon as a kid, and Warren is exactly right. Pappy was walking down the street singing happily about it being Christmas, heard the orphans wailing because all their presents had broken, and fashioned new toys for them out of whatever was on hand, MacGyver style, such as making a rocking horse out of old brooms, restoring their Christmas joy.
Andrew was it absurd that in the OT God chose only Israel to reveal His word to? (Psalm 147:19-20) That God purposely overlooked the times of ignorance of the gentiles, and allowed then to go their own way (Acts 14:16, 17:30) Leaving the masses of gentiles “without hope and without God” (Ephesians 2)? Was it absurd that even within the chosen nation of Israel not all of them were saved but God chose to have mercy on “some” (Ezekiel 6), only the “remnant” that HE chose? (Isaiah 1:9, Romans 9:29) Why do you find it “absurd” that out of sinful humanity God only chooses to save some? Isn’t it more absurd that He should choose to save ANY?
@@rolysantos None of this is absurd. What is though is your belief that because God chose Israel as a nation to reveal His Word and ultimately the Lords lineage, you think that somehow proves that there is no free will, and he chooses who to save and who he doesn’t. Your god decrees everything, including evil for his glory, then he writes the 10 commandments as a rule book to follow him, (as a choice, I might add), he allows, (even enables) people to choose wrong false gods, not him the one true God (because only he will choose you), and writes the first commandment, “choose no other Gods but me?” Yes your doctrine is absurd. Christ’s sacrifice was for all, and those who believe that Jesus sacrifice was for their sin, and believe in their heart, and confess with their mouth that God raised Him from the dead are saved. It’s that simple, man has always been given a choice to come to God, or ignore Him. To say otherwise makes a mockery of the Bible, the Gospel, and its message entirely, and worse, changes the very character of the one true Holy and Sovereign God.
@@andrewtsousis3130 First, Andrew I never said there was no free will . But before I respond to that issue, I just want to make sure we both agree. God did show favoritism among men in the Old Testament. We agreed on that, correct ? This is the first error of Arminianism and proponents of “free will” that I want to knock down.
@@rolysantos I’m not interested in what you want to “knock down”. I’m not interested in arguing about a man made doctrine that lessens Christs sacrifice, takes away the requirement to trust in Christ solely for salvation, and changes the very nature and character of God. I pray that during this festive season the Holy Spirit will reveal the truth to you, that He is willing that none shall perish, and that all may have eternal life. God bless.
@@andrewtsousis3130 I’m interested in the Bible Andrew and refuting false, man centered doctrines. Yes, the God of scripture showed favor among men Andrew. And yes, Andrew there is free will , man has been free to do whatever he WANTS to do, and that has been the problem through the entirety of man’s existence Andrew, not the solution. Adam had actual free where he could choose to obey God or not . What did Adam choose by his free will? Israel was given God’s word that they were told to obey by their free will Andrew The old covenant was if a man, does these things he will live by them . What did Israel choose to do Andrew? How many would have been saved in the old Testament, if God had not had mercy on some by his own Grace and not because of man’s choice Andrew ? Paul makes it very clear in the New Testament that the law could not be obeyed and was meant to be a school master that leads us to Christ . And of course, what did the Gentiles do apart from God law? Andrew? Acts 14:16 tells us they went their own way In Hebrews eight God tells us the problem was not with the law, but with people they turned away from God, so God turned away from them How did God solve this problem on his own Andrew? Read Jeremiah, 3240 for a synopsis of the new covenant Where God says what he will do that those whom he puts his law into their minds, will never turn away again Not only does God guarantee those he chooses will come to him, but that they will never leave him This is why Jesus said all that the father gives me will come to me This is why people who believe that you can lose salvation are wrong . Those Whom God chooses WILL come to him Andrew Because they receive his grace and mercy by his choice Read Matthew 1127 where Jesus said he reveals the father to whoever he chooses That is free will Andrew Gods free will And those whom God does not choose receive his justice Nobody receives injustice, Andrew! But this is the problem with Armenians, who think if God doesn’t give everyone an “opportunity” that somehow he is an unjust God That is not a biblical doctrine, Andrew! Man’s Freewill is like a rattlesnake, who can “choose”whatever a rattlesnake wants to do What the rattlesnake cannot do, is choose to have the nature of a harmless kitten Likewise, man has Adams nature And in Adam we do as Adam did We do not seek God We do not believe the things of God And the things of God, our foolishness to us The only way to believe God is when God takes away our heart of stone, and gives us a heart of flesh by HIS will. Just as Jesus said, and John 3, the spirit goes wherever HE wills and makes alive whomever HE wills That’s what your Bible says Andrew ! You will not find anywhere in scripture in the context of salvation, where the Bible says, Jesus came to save “every single person” The scriptures which speak of the world , all men or all peoples mean in context of salvation means not just Jews or the Jewish nation but Gentile nations too. But nowhere does it say every single person in every single nation. Nowhere! The problem with Armenian doctrine is that they believe God’s primary attribute is love That his primary objective is the salvation of man But God’s primary attribute is his holiness, and his primary objective is his glory If you need scriptures for me to prove this to you, I will be happy to share Once you get away from the man centered doctrine, you will understand the God of the Bible.
This is amazing. A playful way to poke fun at a hurtful theology and highlight there actually is a God full of Grace and hope for all who have breath in their lungs.

Can i just say... i found out Santa Claus was an awesome Bishop that signed the nicene creed and smacked Arius!
Instead of "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus", we need a song to the same tune titled "I saw Santa punching Arius"!
@@DamonNomad82 i would buy that album
Genius , especially the first and last one
Thanks!
I need more of these.
Please do one for all of them, Mormons, Lutherans, etc
Any chance you would cut these up into shorts so I could share em on IG?
Coming soon!
“Co Produced by:
Who are are you oh man?”
That’s very clever.
God must have predestined you to make all the good jokes that the Lutheran Satire guy is predestined not to.
Thanks!
amazing! Hallelujah! God sovereignly elected me from eternity past and not my terrible reprobate neighbor. Now my Christmas is more meaningful then theirs!
Instant classic, Warren, I love it!
Happy holidays!
Don’t forget about evanescent grace! That reprobate didn’t “want” to be saved of his own accord, God actually gave this person a small amount of his own grace to make this person temporarily believe that he desired to be united to God and to be saved, only to take this grace away prior to his death so that he could fall back into sin and damnation.
So for any Calvinists that claim that God doesn’t damn anyone he just doesn’t act to save them this is actually not true in all cases. According to Calvin God actually does act within the life of certain individuals to give them an illusion of salvation, but ultimately prevents it from happening.
crazy. How sad that people are so paralyzed by such darkness.
Calvinism shares one theological point with all the pagan religions of the world: fatalism. Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists... all are fatalists.
“I wouldn’t want to miss the heretic burning. It just wouldn’t be Christmas without one.” 😂😂😂
Wow, but will any Calvinist deny this on it's merits or will they emotionally react?
Our two usual suspects have been going off in this comment section like two devils in a church not just about the video, but about Christmas itself! They're comedy gold!
@@DamonNomad82Their deity of deception doesn’t want anyone celebrating the birth of the Savior of the world……..
"Written: by God (in eternity past)" 😅
The constant "please stand by" transition slide with Sproul 😅
3:30 🤣🤣
Calvin of Santa🤣😂
Thankful that the YT Algorithm has ordained that I watch this.
Me too! Now, freely choose to share it!
Lost it at Calvinist Santa. 😂
Thanks! Merry Christmas!!!
Vipers in diapers! 😂😅😅😂😂😂😅😅😅😅
Well done
Since we got AI, might as well make good use of it for God's purposes. Or in Calvinistic terms, for God's predetermined and self-glorifying purposes, regardless of how horrible they seem.
Tell Manny i said hi, when he gets here. 😄
Wait a second? How do we BOTH have FOREknowledge?!
If you both have the foreknowledge that Manny will be here, that must mean you both pre-determined Manny to be here… right? 😉
Isn’t that how Calvinists think foreknowledge works?
@@GhostBearCommander can I predetermine him not to be here? 😆
@@IdolKiller try!
@@GhostBearCommander "foreknow" is the same as Decree. Right? Awesome!
Isaiah 10:1 Woe unto them that foreknow unrighteous foreknowledge, and that write grievousness which they have prescribed.
Luke 2:1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a foreknowledge from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
Ezra 7:13 I make a foreknowledge, that all they of the people of Israel, and of his priests and Levites, in my realm, *which are minded of their own freewill* to go up to Jerusalem, go with thee.
Oops. Howd that slip in there?
I'm not sure what your normal viewer religious demographic is. I'm neither Calvinist nor Armenian (I'm Lutheran) and I tell you this is comedy gold!
Psalm 68:5 CSB
“God in his holy dwelling is a father of the fatherless and a champion of widows.”
Merry Christmas and Happy Incarnation
“'HE BECAME WHAT WE ARE SO THAT WE MIGHT BECOME WHAT HE IS'”
What a James *White* Christmas!
😂😂😂
"It just wouldn't be Christmas" hahaha
This is so well done. Great work with the images and the dialogue.
Thank you very much!
Vicious but extremely funny and alas spot on in bringing out the implications of Reformed Theology. Vipers in diapers is a particularly good phrase.
I am sure I was wrong in Critiquing this sort of approach. This was Brilliant. Thanks Warren...Gold...
Hey, some land, some fall flat... no worries and thank you!
I love this!
Merry Christmas......to the elect only...not you Bill!
@@aletheia8054The earliest mention of Christmas was from 336 iirc. That puts it before the Great Schism, so the entire church celebrated it, not just roman catholics.
Even the famous Saint John Chrysostom argued that the date of Christmas was based on public census records and could also be gleaned from Luke chapter 1. Now don't be a grinch and tell people not to celebrate the birth of God. I can't think of anything more worthy of celebration than the incarnation.
“Love” is truly emptied of all meaning from a Calvinist god. The only agent in Salvation has sufficiently paid all sin having poured out all wrath on Jesus, then would choose ANY for eternal torture must be an evil being.
They say God only poured out the wrath He had for the elect on Jesus but is storing up His wrath for the reprobate. The problem is that the Calvinist view of election equating salvation is faulty and God never poured out His wrath on Jesus, He's storing it up for the day of judgment. The first coming was for healing, redemption and deliverance.
@@IdolKiller You deny all wrath & hostility that resulted from human sin was absorbed by Jesus? What exactly did Jesus do on the cross in your view? Was He not punished for our sin?
@androcracy I affirm the Redemptive Models held by the Early Church: Ransom, Recapitulation, Moral Influence, Restored Icon and Christus Victor.
I have a LOT of content on the Worl of Christ here on this channel.
I believe Jesus assumed the totality of the human nature, underwent life as one of us, lived sinlessly, suffered, died, rose again and ascended bodily into heaven and thereby redeeming every aspect of humanity and setting us free from the hold of the grave, lives of futility and destroyed the works of the devil... all while drawing all men to Himself. (Not universal salvation, but universal provision)
"Fear not for I give you tidings of great joy... just for you David." rofl
Strong work as usual, Warren😂
This is just way too good
Keep up the mockery of Calvinism
The satanic doctrines of grace
Can you make these bite size so we can share them everywhere… plz
Yes! YT Shorts versions have been prepped and loaded. I'm just giving the main video another day or so before releasing them so they don't compete
Thank you, Warren. Great job once again!
Bittersweet Truth🤔
Awesome for all your hard work for the babies not vipers in diapers, of which Jesus takes to himself if they die young, and also died for thereby giving the ability of salvation to all at the age of accountability.
Yes! The notion that children suffer the wrath of God and damnation is so false and grievous it needs rebuked loudly
@@IdolKiller indeed.
Precious little ones.
I hope these reform leaders will see their error as even Matt Slick was forced to conceed unknowingly in your debate with him.
The Guys at the "Bee" are jealous. We must pray they are able to choose to repent.🤠🤠
😂 the vipers in diapers is just priceless… 🎉
MERRY CHRISTMAS teacher in advance
Merry Christmas!
Joy to the world THE LORD has come let a few hearts declare HIS TRUTH !
The Calvinist preachers must hate this.
Although funny and true, it's sad that people actually follow John Calvin,....not only a false teacher but a despicable human being who supported the murder of non calvinists. Run away!
It's an easy gig for elves that work for Calvinist Santa. Lumps of coal are easier to fashion than toys.
Genious.
We need a "love it" button.
You're flattening it out😊
Wow this is good! I wonder what you will come up with for Easter!
Oh man, I gotta get on that!
BTW, it was good to hear that David was the elect one😉
Ah yes, the Gospel as Good News for some 😆
Vipers in diapers!!! Lol great job
Absolutely brilliant, thanks for making it!
Love the Calvinist Santa -- no one gets presents, hahahahaha
After seeing the clip from Alistair Sim's 1951 version of "A Christmas Carol" in your video, I am so thankful that a Calvinist did not make that film. It would've been so short. This video really hits the target. Great job! I am going to ask a Calvinist friend to watch it and tell me if this is how Calvinists should preach on Christmas and if not, why not. Also, you used clips from "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town." In that special in its original form, Chris Kringle sings to the Winter Warlock (please, call him Winter) that "it's simply a matter of election, to vote for a chance to be reborn." Is that Calvinism? Maybe it's Calvo-Armenian Traditionalism or something like that. I don't know. Lol. Anyway, thank you for this and have a blessed Christmas.
I am curious how that orphanage clip originally ended after all their toys were broken...?
I suspect it would have ended on a note of hope which is exactly how Calivinism falls short as you depicted, because
they have no hope to offer a hurting world.
There was a kind old man named Pappy who was an inventor of sorts. He stopped by the orphanage and made them new toys, saving Christmas
@@IdolKiller Thank you!
I saw the original cartoon as a kid, and Warren is exactly right. Pappy was walking down the street singing happily about it being Christmas, heard the orphans wailing because all their presents had broken, and fashioned new toys for them out of whatever was on hand, MacGyver style, such as making a rocking horse out of old brooms, restoring their Christmas joy.
Satire has a great way of simply demonstrating the absurdity of a subject. This is a fantastic video. Very funny and sadly, very true.
Andrew was it absurd that in the OT God chose only Israel to reveal His word to? (Psalm 147:19-20)
That God purposely overlooked the times of ignorance of the gentiles, and allowed then to go their own way (Acts 14:16, 17:30)
Leaving the masses of gentiles “without hope and without God” (Ephesians 2)?
Was it absurd that even within the chosen nation of Israel not all of them were saved but God chose to have mercy on “some” (Ezekiel 6), only the “remnant” that HE chose? (Isaiah 1:9, Romans 9:29)
Why do you find it “absurd” that out of sinful humanity God only chooses to save some?
Isn’t it more absurd that He should choose to save ANY?
@@rolysantos None of this is absurd. What is though is your belief that because God chose Israel as a nation to reveal His Word and ultimately the Lords lineage, you think that somehow proves that there is no free will, and he chooses who to save and who he doesn’t. Your god decrees everything, including evil for his glory, then he writes the 10 commandments as a rule book to follow him, (as a choice, I might add), he allows, (even enables) people to choose wrong false gods, not him the one true God (because only he will choose you), and writes the first commandment, “choose no other Gods but me?” Yes your doctrine is absurd. Christ’s sacrifice was for all, and those who believe that Jesus sacrifice was for their sin, and believe in their heart, and confess with their mouth that God raised Him from the dead are saved. It’s that simple, man has always been given a choice to come to God, or ignore Him. To say otherwise makes a mockery of the Bible, the Gospel, and its message entirely, and worse, changes the very character of the one true Holy and Sovereign God.
@@andrewtsousis3130
First, Andrew I never said there was no free will .
But before I respond to that issue, I just want to make sure we both agree. God did show favoritism among men in the Old Testament.
We agreed on that, correct ?
This is the first error of Arminianism and proponents of “free will” that I want to knock down.
@@rolysantos I’m not interested in what you want to “knock down”. I’m not interested in arguing about a man made doctrine that lessens Christs sacrifice, takes away the requirement to trust in Christ solely for salvation, and changes the very nature and character of God. I pray that during this festive season the Holy Spirit will reveal the truth to you, that He is willing that none shall perish, and that all may have eternal life. God bless.
@@andrewtsousis3130
I’m interested in the Bible Andrew and refuting false, man centered doctrines.
Yes, the God of scripture showed favor among men Andrew.
And yes, Andrew there is free will , man has been free to do whatever he WANTS to do, and that has been the problem through the entirety of man’s existence Andrew, not the solution.
Adam had actual free where he could choose to obey God or not .
What did Adam choose by his free will?
Israel was given God’s word that they were told to obey by their free will Andrew
The old covenant was if a man, does these things he will live by them .
What did Israel choose to do Andrew?
How many would have been saved in the old Testament, if God had not had mercy on some by his own Grace and not because of man’s choice Andrew ?
Paul makes it very clear in the New Testament that the law could not be obeyed and was meant to be a school master that leads us to Christ .
And of course, what did the Gentiles do apart from God law? Andrew?
Acts 14:16 tells us they went their own way
In Hebrews eight God tells us the problem was not with the law, but with people
they turned away from God, so God turned away from them
How did God solve this problem on his own Andrew?
Read Jeremiah, 3240 for a synopsis of the new covenant
Where God says what he will do that those whom he puts his law into their minds, will never turn away again
Not only does God guarantee those he chooses will come to him, but that they will never leave him
This is why Jesus said all that the father gives me will come to me
This is why people who believe that you can lose salvation are wrong .
Those Whom God chooses WILL come to him Andrew
Because they receive his grace and mercy by his choice
Read Matthew 1127 where Jesus said he reveals the father to whoever he chooses
That is free will Andrew
Gods free will
And those whom God does not choose receive his justice
Nobody receives injustice, Andrew!
But this is the problem with Armenians, who think if God doesn’t give everyone an “opportunity” that somehow he is an unjust God
That is not a biblical doctrine, Andrew!
Man’s Freewill is like a rattlesnake, who can “choose”whatever a rattlesnake wants to do
What the rattlesnake cannot do, is choose to have the nature of a harmless kitten
Likewise, man has Adams nature
And in Adam we do as Adam did
We do not seek God
We do not believe the things of God
And the things of God, our foolishness to us
The only way to believe God is when God takes away our heart of stone, and gives us a heart of flesh by HIS will.
Just as Jesus said, and John 3, the spirit goes wherever HE wills and makes alive whomever HE wills
That’s what your Bible says Andrew !
You will not find anywhere in scripture in the context of salvation, where the Bible says, Jesus came to save “every single person”
The scriptures which speak of the world , all men or all peoples mean in context of salvation means not just Jews or the Jewish nation but Gentile nations too. But nowhere does it say every single person in every single nation.
Nowhere!
The problem with Armenian doctrine is that they believe God’s primary attribute is love
That his primary objective is the salvation of man
But God’s primary attribute is his holiness, and his primary objective is his glory
If you need scriptures for me to prove this to you, I will be happy to share
Once you get away from the man centered doctrine, you will understand the God of the Bible.
This is amazing. A playful way to poke fun at a hurtful theology and highlight there actually is a God full of Grace and hope for all who have breath in their lungs.
@@Skyhawk98 thanks and amen!
