[Salvatore Mazzotta]

"I may be called Antinomian or Calvinist for preaching a limited atonement; but I had rather believe a limited atonement that is efficacious for all men for whom it was intended, than a universal atonement that is not efficacious for anybody, except the will of man be joined with it." --Charles Spurgeon

[Jeremiah Greenwell]

You know, Calvanists can play this "take a verse out of context to fit whatever you want it to say" game too. For example:

"...He said to them, 'But who do you say that I am?'

Peter answered and said to Him, 'You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.'

Jesus answered and said to him, 'Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven."

Matthew 16:15-17

...Oh wait, that is in context. My bad; I'm really bad at this game.

Great and well thought out video!

"I think you are confusing God with Megatron" - 2:50

Best line.

[Mitchell Witteveen]

Silly Protestants, Grace and Free Will work together, but God condemns no one.

[Randall Senn]

This is the best one of the series

[CanadianOrth]

That last line is classic!

Just like the Westminster Confession ch.18 stumbles all over itself looking for infallible assurance while knowing the decree just may be otherwise.

"I think you are confusing God with Megatron"

Why do I foresee a "Finding God in Transformers" book in the future?

[ElJibaroBravo]

You're right. He made that statement to the twelve. And one of them was a devil.

So it is true then that in Lutheranism grace only makes salvation possible, but does not actually accomplish it.
