1) It might also be said much wicked self-righteousness and religious pride came into the Church through "Calvinism" and "Reformed Theology"2) I would rather labor together with a zealous Pentecostal who is crying out in prayer for the Salvation of the lost, preaching hard against sin telling them of Jesus Christ, pleading with lost sinners to repent and call upon the name of the Lord that God might save them from their sins than uncaring TULIP Calvinists
1) The hate in your heart for other peoples convictions and theology is a very telling evidence. Be careful that whilst you are under the dominion of sin that you don't fall foul of your own lack of humility.Rom 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
Gal 6:3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.
2Peter 3:17 Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness.
2) This is why the Calvinist KNOWS the reality of Total Depravity, and deals with it. Whereas you exCatholics still have a legacy of works based religious theory.
May God bring you into the whole counsel.
