Calvinism
in the Bible (John 3)
I don’t know how many times I have heard people
state that the Doctrines of Calvinism are not found in the Bible.
Yet they are all throughout Scripture.
The Scriptures Scream of Gods Monergistic Nature.
In fact Luther in his Bondage of the Will showed
over 300 verses
that dealt with this, and this was NOT an exhaustive
list.
Today we simply look a few excerpts from Dr. John
MacArthur book “The Jesus You Can't Ignore: What You Must Learn from the Bold Confrontations of Christ”.
We can clearly see how Jesus DESTROYS a Synergistic
or Free-Will theology.
It is so plain and simple in the opening verses of
John 3 just how much Jesus is in control.
The wind blows where it wishes…
Yet so many Christians seem to think that it is mans wind and not the wind of God.
They lay claim to a Synergistic yet almost Monergistic to the point where it is more and more ALL of them rather than some of them.
Yet clearly God does as He pleases, again and again, because He ALWAYS does as He pleases.

I think this is a real great illustration of the fact that God is Sovreign.
