Author	Thread: Calvinism, Wheat and Tares
Admin	Calvinism, Wheat and Tares Posted : 17 Apr, 2011 07:46 AM In the parable of Wheat and Tares the expressed reason for Not pulling out the Tares to early is they can easily be confused with the Wheat. So to avoid accidentally pulling up any Wheat by mistake you wait until they mature when they can be identified as Wheat or Tares. This is God talking about people; let them mature so they can be identified as belonging to Him or not. Yet Calvinism has the elect identified from before the beginning of the world? Post Reply

Right. Don't know why John the Baptist preached "repent". Or Jesus for that matter. The non-'elect' CAN'T REPENT according to James the Calvinist. And the 'elect' can just sit around and wait to be chosen. Repentance isn't a prerequisite or for them since they are already chosen elect. Instant Believer. So preaching repentance is a misnomer.
