" I have fought it for years but praise God He has opened my eyes to the revealed truth."

It sounds like you have recently changed your position.

You state that those who oppose your conviction of spiritual death are justifying their moral goodness which would mean according to your theological system a works salvation.

So are you trying to state that you were still saved even during the time you believed what is considered a works salvation? How can that be?

Salvation is either by works or by grace. If the position that you recently changed from and which I hold to is salvation by works, I would think that you either recently got saved or you still believe in salvation by works.

I do not think they use John 3:16 at all. I was just agreeing with your hermeneutical point and contrasting it with that of the Calvinist.

I wonder what they were up to when they were in salvation lymbo.

JD,

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him, should not perish but have everlasting life."

Don't worry, there are plenty of accusations that I have made towards Calvinist that you can choose from. I seriously doubt you have to make some up.

You may also want to look up what a strawman is.

That's if you care to be honest.

I and JD just happen to believe that God states what he means and means what he says. I know that you are used to redefining terms and funneling the Scriptures through your presupositions, but if I and JD would take the same approach then we would abase the integrity of Scripture to be nothing more than the private interpretation of one's theological whim.

By the way, I said a prayer for you. Seems like you are having a hard time. Remember:

Until then please look in the mirror.

"I try to avoid your stupid and childish and proud arguments but at times get drawn into them because of the EGO and PRIDE on your part."

Ha! Are you sure that it is not your EGO and PRIDE that is drawing you to me. Noone is forcing you to answer me. I guess its a matter of perspective.

Like I said. To the Calvinist "none" means everyone except me. Everyone else is guilty except the Calvinist. This is what is called the F_anciful L_and of the C_alvinist.

And speaking of strawmen here comes another one....

"You on the other hand sought after God of your own will, and you were so smart to see your own need, unlike the rest of the imbeciles out there in the world."

I take it very literal. Its the Calvinist who applies that to everyone else except themselves.

I do not know about you but I did not have cursing and bitterness before I was saved, neither have I shed innocent blood.

Nevertheless there is figurative language in play here. The passage is a quote from a Psalm. I suppose you have never heard of a synecdoche.
