These seem to reject all things gray. Consequentially they cannot find unity with other Christians, even the evangelical ones.kc bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17440862813109808755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6105354507156807393.post-39798717681202033272015-03-05T12:42:10.347-07:002015-03-05T12:42:10.347-07:00Nicely said.....Bob.....

Interesting....when I trusted the Lord Jesus Christ back in 1984....I knew nothing of Calvinism etc......but as the years have gone by....it seems to be a larger and larger issue in MacArthur's books and all round teaching......What I really struggle with is some being chosen for "Eternal Hellfire" and some chosen for heavenly bliss.... <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6105354507156807393.post-23954684102707605422015-03-05T09:44:58.949-07:002015-03-05T09:44:58.949-07:00I have found Calvinists, and MacArthur in particul...I have found Calvinists, and MacArthur in particular, a bit too arrogant and judgmental for my tastes. These use pejorative words like heresy way too freely.
