The 5 Points of Calvinism Poem


 

We are born lost in sin you see
Totally wicked
We are mired in depravity

Our heart is desperately wicked
That is the truth
Sin is our bed

God chose us to redeem
From the foundation of the world
What a marvelous dream

Not elected based on anything in us
It was simply God's good pleasure
For His purpose

Christ died at Calvary
His propitiation was complete
This is salvation history

He died for a select few
Only the Elect
The others He did eschew

We were quickened by the Holy Ghost
It was grace we could not resist
We have nothing of our own to boast

This grace was irresistible
God loved us so
We are no longer miserable

We're given a heart of flesh
We are made new
Our new life starts afresh

Our salvation cannot be lost
Christ will keep us on the right path
Persevering until our mortal life is past

The Immaculate Conception of Mary Debunked

Image
Bernadette Soubirous, a young teenager in France in the 19th century, reportedly experienced 18 visions of the Blessed Mother Mary. She appeared to Bernadette in a grotto near Lourdes. In one of these visions she exclaimed, "I AM THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION!" From Wikipedia: The Marian Apparitions at Lourdes were reported in 1858 by Bernadette Soubirous , a 14-year-old miller's daughter from the town of Lourdes in southern France . From 11 February to 16 July 1858, she reported 18 apparitions of "a Lady". Soubirous described the lady as wearing a white veil and a blue girdle; she had a golden rose on each foot and held a rosary of pearls. After initial skepticism from the Clergy , these claims were eventually declared to be worthy of belief after a canonical investigation, and the apparition is known as Our Lady of Lourdes . According to Soubirous, her visions occurred at the grotto of Massabielle, just outside Lourdes. On 16 July 1858, Soubirous visite

"2012: Ice Age" (2011) - film review

This movie is a disaster! The acting is so bad I often laughed out loud at the delivery. I could write better dialogue when I was in 9th grade! The plot is very implausible and the premise is ridiculous. One would have to be wholly ignorant of science to not be incredulous. First of all the glacier would not be speeding across the ocean no matter how big it was. If such a gigantic glacier shelf broke off (1,000 miles wide) it would have triggered a massive tsunami. The shortest over-water distance between Europe and America is 1,630 miles so if glacier will reach the eastern US coast in 19 hours it is traveling at 86mph! This is just not possible. The Indian scientist is a complete moron, he sees explosions less than a mile away and waits until the last possible minute to take off in the helicopter. Then the fool travels along the fault line! All he has to do was fly at a 90 degree angle to the fault line and he would have been safe. Or he could have just flown higher, the helicop
