    Mike Winger's "Why I think Calvinism is Unbiblical"

    It is finished. Jesus satisfied God’s required payment for sin for the whole world and whosoever would believe would have the blood of Jesus applied to them. 1 John 2:2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

    Dreams and visions

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    I have the pure and perfect word of God to define adoption. The Holy Spirit used the word adoption. It is the context of predestination, not salvation. I already have salvation, but I’m waiting on the adoption, that is, the redemption of the body.
