04/23/24 SATAN'S MESSAGE
The devil says...
God loves only some people with a "saving love," but God "loves" other people with only an un-saving love, in other words, they promote these lies:
(lie) God does not love the whole world,
(lie) The atonement is not available for the whole world, and
(lie) Jesus did not die and rise again for all mankind.
The devil says...
God calls some people with an actual ("effectual call") to salvation, the others God calls with a fake call ("general call"), by which God does not intend to save all who believe, repent, confess and follow Jesus, (in other words, according to the devil, God gives a real call and a fake call).
The devil says...
God gives some people an actual assurance that they are saved, but God gives only a temporary and false witness of salvation (an "evanescent assurance," a false hope) to some other people.
However, the Bible says this about those supposed fallen believers:
They had received the word with joy, and endured for a while, but became offended and fell away;
They were enlightened and tasted the gift and were partakers of the Holy Spirit and tasted the good word of God and the powers of the world to come, then fell away;
They had believed, repented, confessed;
They endured for a short while then became offended and fell away;
They received the word but brought no fruit to completion,
They were branches in Christ, but bore no fruit and then were cut off and cast away by the Father.
Though there are no such terms or doctrines in the Bible (which deny God's desire and provision to save all men, or declares that God gives a fake call to salvation, or that God gives a temporary and fake assurance of salvation), you will find these lies taught in sinning religion.
God did not appoint or anoint men to interpret God's word or give new revelation, including Augustine, Luther, Calvin or anyone else. God did not choose or use any man to contradict and replace His word with sinning religion.
