1 Peter 1, Elect; another Calvinist blunder.Posted : 20 Apr, 2010 11:07 AMLet's examine 1 Peter 1:1-2. This passage was grossly mistranslated by Calvinists. The Greek says things very differently. |

1 Peter 1, Elect; another Calvinist blunder.Posted : 21 Apr, 2010 11:03 PMTo: God's chosen people, literally, �Gods elected ones,� meaning Israel, living as aliens in the Diaspora. Peter directs his letter primarily to Jewish believers (including Jewish proselytes who later accepted Jesus), since he was �an emissary to the Circumcised� (Ga 2:7-8). However, the spiritual content of his Gospel, salvation by trust (3-9), was identical to that of Paul, the �emissary to the Gentiles� (Ga 2:6-9). Gentiles who have not converted to Judaism but have trusted in the Jewish Messiah and thrown in their lot with the Jewish believers are counted along with them, since by their trust such Gentiles have been grafted into Israel (Ro 11:17-24, Ep 2:11-16). What the phrase does not mean is simply �the Church,� as opposed to �the Jews�; since the word Diaspora (Greek for �dispersion� from the Land of Israel) would then be inapplicable. |

1 Peter 1, Elect; another Calvinist blunder.Posted : 22 Apr, 2010 05:38 AMBased on my experience, when Calvinists (Reformed Christians) defend their doctrinal beliefs, they usually read from large passages in the Bible (John 6, John 17, Romans 5, Romans 9, Romans 10, Ephesians 1, etc.) and let the words of scripture speak for themselves. |
