Open Letter To All Arminian And Calvinist

I believe there is one important biblical truth the Arminian and Calvinist had missed. There are so many debates, accusations, and arguments that have been going on in the past and until now, but it only focuses on the spiritual side. They both overlook the other side of the truth which is on the natural-physical side and it is all about their body-the human body. It is not the two opposing views are the real issue, but the body that is contrary to the Spirit. The main conflict is not on the two contested views, but on the body and Spirit. Gal 5:16-21

In the spiritual realm, there’s no problem at all and there’s no question at all, anyone who is in Christ is a new creation 2 Cor 5:17- forgiven, justified, blameless, holy and righteous in the sight of God because all sins have been paid by Jesus. It is finished nothing more to be done.  However, in the natural realm, in the physical body which is the mortal body actually lies the big problem that there must be something to be worked out.

In the area of the physical body there are sin-causing-parts namely the eye, the hand and the tongue where sin is active and living ever since at childhood. Everybody has an ingrained sin from birth.  And for as long as the “saved person”   is in the body, the part that causes sin can still live and be active at any moment anytime, anywhere and under any circumstances.

No one can’t deny it, those wretched and fleshly part craves for the lust of the eyes and the lust of the flesh. It’s totally has no desire for spiritual things only lustful desires Gal 5:16-25. Like an airplane flying on autopilot, the body yield automatically to its lustful cravings, always acting on its own and the more trying to control it, the more struggle it becomes Rom 7:14-20. For that reason, many who claimed they are truly saved or always saved were still slaves of the sin living in those parts of their body. Only a few are in the good ground and grow in the Spirit while many are with among the worldly Mat 13:7-9, enslave and entangled again and again by the sinful workings of those parts.

Let all be reminded that not all who say “Lord, Lord” will enter heaven Mat 7:21-23 that in the same way not all who   claimed they are “truly saved” or “always saved” will enter heaven. Why will they not enter heaven? Because they didn’t know that their eye, hand and tongue conceives sin little by little Jam 1:15, until sin reign and become their master again Rom 6:12.

Regardless of the views claimed by one and the other, there within their body are the dangerous parts- the eye and the hand with the tongue which is the most dangerous part Jam 3:1-8. All parts are restless evil. Everyone should always watch out their own parts. Charles Spurgeon said, “Beware of no man more than yourselves; we carry our worst enemies within us”.  Apostle Paul himself knows very well the condition of his own body and he always disciplined his body and put it into subjection. 1Cor 9:27

Both Arminian and Calvinist dwell in the same corrupted body, has the same flesh and blood and no bodies are “holier than thou”. In fact, the bible said “No flesh and blood can enter heaven” 1 Cor 15:50 and God are no respecter of person Acts 10:34 and that includes group, church, denomination etc.

Unless they both settle on these bodily issues, (saving the parts of the body) there would be more soul along with the whole body that might be put in danger. Mark 9:43-48

Modern Translation of 1 Corinthians 1:12

Original Translation:

Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos… Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?  (1Co 1:12-13)

 Modern Translation:

Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Calvin ; and I of Armenian… Is Christ divided? was Calvin crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Armenian?  (1Co 1:12-13)

When it comes in the doctrine of salvation both (Calvinism and Armenian) agree that salvation is by grace through faith and not by works of whatsoever. But when it comes in the issue whether salvation can be lose or not , conditional or eternal, division exist in the Body of Christ which is the church and it creates a big separation wall between of them.  There have been many debates and discussions over that matter until today and it seems will never end. They even pointing each other as unbiblical, heretic, inspired by the devil etc..etc.., Did they know that they are actually condemning and judging each other?

One thing is clear, both missed a very important issue relevant to salvation. All of those who claimed they are “truly saved” or “always saved” should know that the Law which is the Ten Commandments is the vital thing to give an outmost importance.  

Look carefully on the teaching of Jesus about the law:

Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.  Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.  (Mat 5:17-19)

What law Jesus is talking about?

It is not the Ceremonial law, not the Sabbath law and not even the Law of Moses in particular is the Ten Commandments written in the two tablets of stone. The law Jesus is talking about is the law called the law “But now I tell you”. Unlike the Law of Moses that must be caught in the act such as adultery, murder, stealing to be declared guilty of sin, the law Jesus teach doesn’t need to be caught in the act to become guilty.  The former committing adultery is guilty punishable by death while the latter to look with a lust is already adultery and shall be in danger of the fire of hell.

Jesus said, “And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.  And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.  (Mat 5:29-30)

 All who claimed they are in Christ be reminded, ignoring the teaching of Christ regarding the “Law Now” is dangerous. Many think they are “truly saved” or “always saved” but in fact they are not saved at all because of their “hell-dragging-body”- (their eye, hand and tongue caused them to be in danger of the fire of hell).
