David Pawson - Sovereign Grace & Calvinism

A few months ago I asked the Lord to direct me to a church for that morning.  I looked at several and chose a church that I knew nothing about. I had no idea it was a Calvinist Church, for after many years of teaching others, I was delivered from Calvinism. Had I known it was a Calvinist Church, I would not have gone.

When I walked into the building there were a lot of smiling faces. One lady walked up to me boldly and asked me if I was new to the church. I said yes. She said "you are in for a surprise". "Wait until you hear about tulip". How horrible. I was so sad for her and the people. Most of Calvinism's beliefs do not hold water. I can almost see Jesus standing outside the door and knocking to come in.

I asked the Lord why He sent me to that church, just to sit through false teachings? He did not answer, but at the end of the meeting, as I left the building, a young man about 40 came up to me and we talked for quite some time. The Lord gave me words and I warned the man as the verses came to me. I trust he will never be the same. I rejoiced in being used by God. I love Calvinists, but the teachers are in trouble for deceiving the people, along with much of what comes from the pulpits today.

Seek Calvinism or Seek God's Kingdom?
33“But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Matthew 6 NASB

Please see the "WARNINGS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT".    I spent years reading and gathering the warnings in the New Testament.  I put them together and started posting them with 1 Corinthians on June 12, 2014. I then went through all of the books in the New Testament. They can change your mind. They can change your life! We have been so deceived by the preachers and teachers.

  1. SEEKING GOD BY STEVE FINNELL

    IS IT POSSIBLE FOR MEN TO SEEK GOD? IF THOSE OF THE "GRACE ONLY" PERSUASION ARE CORRECT IN THAT GOD SELECTS A FEW TO BE SAVED AND THE MAJORITY OF MANKIND, THROUGH NO FAULT OF THEIR OWN, WILL BE SENT TO HELL FOR ALL ETERNITY, THEN OF COURSE MAN'S ATTEMPT TO SEEK GOD WOULD BE FUTILE. ARE THEY RIGHT?

    CAN MEN SEEK GOD?

    MATTHEW 6:25-33.......33 BUT SEEK FIRST HIS KINGDOM AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND THESE THINGS WILL BE ADDED TO YOU.

    Why would Jesus say, seek God's kingdom? Men can seek God. Seeking God is not an impossibility.

    Acts 15:13-18......16 'After these things I will return, and I will rebuild the tabernacle of David which has fallen, and I will restore it, 17 So the rest of mankind may seek the Lord, and all the Gentiles who are called by my name,' 18 Says the Lord, who makes these things known from long ago.

    James answered, Simeon has related, and the Prophets have agreed that mankind may seek the Lord, however, those "grace only' advocates who believe in the doctrine of predestination, without qualifications, disagree.

    Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.

    Men come to God. Men seek God. God does not force men into salvation. God does not force men to have faith. God does not compel men to repent. God does not overpower men and then force them to be baptized in water for the forgiveness of their sins. God does not force men to confess Jesus as the Christ the Son of God.

    GOD IS A REWARDER OF THOSE WHO SEEK HIM!

    SEEK GOD-------IT IS POSSIBLE!
