Calvinism is not Scriptural. When followed to it's logical end, it says that God has created billions of souls that he never had any intention of offering Salvation. It turns Christ and his sacrifice on the cross into an afterthought and the Bible into a book of lies. It only survives by changing the definition of words such as "All" and "Whole World" into "Some" and "The Elect" and offers no assurance of Salvation. Calvinism makes God the author of all evil.
The Calvinist view would say, it’s not that God condemns them to hell, rather their will is in bondage to sin, and they are choosing hell, it’s only by an act of God that they are set free. Which you are probably thinking, but if God created them, and he is sovereign, why doesn’t he just create a different plan of salvation. This is to me the most difficult piece of Calvinism, it’s why I am not a Calvinist.
This is so good and helpful in understanding Calvinism! 😮
Thanks!

What are your thoughts on Calvinism?
It's a fatalistic Cult that is in no way supported by Scripture.
So if I understand this correctly, God condemns most people to hell simply because they didn’t get picked? This is awful.
