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.
