Calvinists say, "I will be free when I die and go to heaven!" Jesus died, was buried, and rose the third day? So, through that death, burial, and resurrection we attain freedom from sin? But, the Calvinist does not have any freedom from anything until he dies, is buried, and later on is resurrected. So, Jesus' death, burial and resurrection didn't do anything? But, it is your own physical death, burial, and your own resurrection is what brings you salvation? Isn't that right?

I have never said what you say these Calvinists say. I think I have experienced freedom in a number of areas. Praise God.

The response was, "Could it be that he thinks a little too highly of himself?"
I'm not sure if that was from the Lord, but it came to mind. :-)
