The Calvinism of Elder D.J. Ward!

The Five Solas of The Reformation:
♔ Sola Scriptura (Scripture Alone)! 2 Timothy 3:15-16
♔ Solus Christus (Christ Alone)! John 3:16-18
♔ Sola Gratia (Grace Alone)! Ephesians 2:7-9
♔ Sola Fide (Faith Alone)! Romans 4:5
♔ Soli Deo Gloria (For God's Glory Alone)! Galatians 1:4-5

I believe that salvation is ALL of the Lord. I believe The Father ELECTS, the Son SAVES and the Holy Spirit EFFECTS that salvation within us because of what Christ did on the cross FOR US. Christ's work and the imputation of HIS righteousness is OUTSIDE of us. The Bible teaches that we are born DEAD in our sins - Ephesians 2:1

It was GOD who settled the Doctrines of Grace, known by the acronym TULIP, in my heart. These are the words of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ on this:

1. TOTAL INABILITY or TOTAL DEPRAVITY-- "No man can come to me unless the Father who sent Me draws him." John 6:44
2. UNCONDITIONAL ELECTION-- "You have not chosen Me but I have chosen you." John 15:16
3. LIMITED ATONEMENT-- " I am The Good Shepherd. The good shepherd gives his life for the Sheep." John 10:11
4.IRRESISTIBLE GRACE-- "All that the Father gives shall come to me." John 6:37
5. PRESERVATION OF THE SAINTS--"They will never perish." John 10:28

The Bible speaks of SHEEP and GOATS! The Bible does NOT teach that Christ died for the goats, it says, Christ died for the SHEEP.

If you cannot come to grips with the Doctrine of Limited Atonement - deal with it - the Bible teaches it VERY CLEARLY everywhere you look.
