The best evidence for something is of those when it happened, not from those who change ideas six and a half centuries later. How silly.

If there is anything you don't think I addressed, please ask it again. I am here to help.

Calvinism is a heresy. It is the pride of one believing they were premade for salvation, yet this is not what the Bible teaches.

How exactly is moving the thread to a venue that allows what was going on censoring? and how is what happened a 'bad sign'?

If certain types of posts consistently have a negative impact on the quality of the discussion, it is reasonable for those that manage this board to protect the interests of this board by taking measures to protect the level of discourse.

Some of the upper forums, including BC&H, prefer for posters that make bald declarations to back those bald declarations with evidence. You were asked early in this thread to support your claims, and you provided no support. It is entirely consistent with the regular function of that forum for such a situation to receive moderation. If evangelical Christians want to start threads in BC&H, and back their claims in those threads with evidence, I suspect the mods of that forum would allow such threads to continue, even if they personally disagreed with the content in those threads(given that there were no rules violations, of course).

As Always,

I have supported my claims. If I didn't you could show otherwise. The evidence summary is stated. That's why you can't find fault with it. Praise the Lord!

The subterranean motivation for moving a thread out of greater view is obvious.

Wrong! I doubt Christ is proven to be God. I doubt that there is a god.

Christian scholars don't question who wrote Revelation, though unregenerates would, for they lack discernment about that which has been solidly proven.
OK - where is the proof of the Authorship of Revelation?

Quote:
Augustine and Luther were calvinists, confused souls. Turtullian has his own issues, but the evidence speaks against them.
Didn't Augustine precede Calvin? Some trick, to be a Calvinist!

Quote:
Evidence is shown by intricate detailed examination in harmony and agreement.
Well, lets start with your claim that Moses wrote the first five books of the bible, in the light of one of them writing about his death.

Please address points, rather than continuing with unevidenced platitudes.

Why don't you go back to the infamous "17", and tell us what sources you hint at? You have provided claims of evidence, but no reference to anything but "all scholars know" or "it's all been proven" true.

Now just imagine a Islamic cleric saying such. Would you ask her to back it up with references? And what you say when the Cleric simply responded with "The evidence summary is stated. That's why you can't find fault with it"? Would you find this response obtuse or reasonable?

Are you arminian? Calvinists might call you heretical!

Btw, what must I do to be saved?

So it was Troy! I asked him this on another thread, and he lied to me about it. Not that I'm surprised.
