ONLY ONE

By Rick Mathes

Romans 2:10 (NASB77) ¹⁰  but glory and honor and peace to every man who does good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

There is only one gospel in the only one Bible. Anything added or subtracted from the truth is a lie, taught by the Father of Lies Reverend Lucifer. It has 5 points that all and only believers, believe; Any teaching other that what follows in these five points is a lie no matter what you believe and not matter that it was that lied to you. The truth will prevail and the only truth is what follows here.

Total Depravity: You can’t repent of your sins enough to be without sin. Darkness cannot enter the light. If there is a speck of sin in your life you cannot enter a perfect heaven. It is only Christ’s perfection laid on you that permits you inot the presence of God forever; imputed righteousness.

Unconditional Election: The Word had you in mind and your salvation before He breathes creation into existence. Listen carefully to this hard to believe absolute truth; you have had nothing to do with your salvation. It is only the Lord’s personal choice of you that saved you from the flames of hell.

Limited Atonement: God so loved the world that He gave His only Son that whosoever shall believe in Him will be saved. Not get this; those who don’t believe in Him won’t be saved and will have to suffer their own hell. He did not suffer and die for them, it was limited to believers.

Irresistible Grace: When Jesus wants you to be His, there is nothing you can do to resist His calling. In fact you cannot “un-save” yourself. I can’t remove my birth-father’s blood from my veins and you cannot remove His Holy Spirit from flowing through your soul. Once save means always saved.

Perseverance of the Saints: Christians don’t give up. We fight the good fight, keep the faith and finish the race. We always get up and press on!

Now I have studied the Word and comparative religions for over three decades and I have two doctorate degrees. I cannot dispute logically the five points of Calvinism. I’m not too fond of them because I want to be the god of my decisions but when the dust settles TULIP is the rock of faith I have built my faith on. I report and you decide!
