Why I Think Calvinism Is Unbiblical
I present this in Christian brotherhood to my fellow believers. Expand this description for TIME STAMPS for the video...
I am not intending to attack or misrepresent Calvinism but to offer an honest biblical critique of what I see as one of the major pillars in Calvinism. I welcome responses and encourage them to stay on topic and to focus on clear exegesis. However, if a comment or response ignores what I am saying and how I am building my case biblically I probably won't give it much time.

Bible verses: Romans 3:20 ff, especially 3:27. 4:1-6; 4:13-16. Galatians 2:16 (minute 10:00), 3:5-6. Key points established: Bible contrasts work with faith, justification by faith vs work-righteousness, one rules out the other

17:29 - the relation/ use of M. and S. in regard to salvation
18:03 - Calvinist take on Monergism and how faith when viewed as a free choice based, decision-making act is defined as being synergism. "You did some of the work"

28:35 - reformationtheology.com quote on "is faith a work"; commentary
31:55 - going through the online "TULIP test" and why it is misleading
37:56 - going through Calvinists´ answers to Mike´s FB and Twitter account poll:
a) "Do you consider faith to be a work in the sense that it merits anything?"
b) "If not then how can a non-Calvinist position be considered synergism?"
47:35 - PART III: Q&A SESSION (addressing objections from Calvinist audience first)
short comments on Acts 13:48; John 6:44; Peter 2:8

1:08:06 - reader´s question: Do you believe in "once saved, always saved"
1:09:35 - summing up what the video is about when reading another Calvinist asking "Isn´t faith a work when we have the choice to believe or not?"
1:11:17 - "Do I want you to change from Calvinist to Non-Calvinist"
1:11:45 - OUTRO. Topic of next week´s livestream: the "Passion" translation. Appeal to listen to and learn from each other as a healthy Christian thing to do. Mike informing that he won´t be able time-wise to respond to comments apart from the first hours post-stream. Welcoming Calvinists to share opinion. Blessings
