I know what it is...tulip is the 5 points of calvinism.
I believe it promotes man over God... It takes some scriptures and blows them out of proportion to make it look like only a certain handful will go to heaven and the rest go to hell. That makes man glorified...and have the attitude "I'm one of the elect, you're not" which isn't too grand. Look at the Westboro Baptist Church in Kansas that is Calvinist and pickets military funerals calling every person who is military a fag. Yep..that's really God's love right there...(yeah..right)
God gave us the will to not accept salvation...it's one of those quirks. He sure gives us the tugging to get saved, but we don't have to do it. And on the subject of elect...that is wiped out with "whosoever" in John 3:16 and other verses...there is nothing saying "whosoever of the elect believeth" or anything like that. God doesn't force us to be saved...Calvinism supports that we're saved like it or not and only a certain few... which stops missions works.. Jesus HIMSELF said to go out and spread the gospel. So we do...to bring as many to Christ as possible. Calvinism does not accept that...because if there's only a few elect, why bother with everyone else.
Calvinism is a corrupt doctrine that puts man over God... Like it or not, it is what it is...Jesus comes first...not Calvin or his doctrine founded after the Reformation.

are those interior the floor or potted? If interior the floor, water the foliage with a intense phosphorous fertilizer like Miracle Gro or Jack's classic Bloom Booster to make particular the bulb can collect adequate food to construct a sparkling bud in the previous going dormant interior the wintry climate. by no capacity, by no capacity decrease the foliage back after the flora flower. basically enable them to die back on their own and fertilize the plant till the foliage is genuinely brown. throughout the summer time the roots take interior the food from the soil and use them to construct new buds for next flowering season. If those are potted tulips, plant them interior the floor as quickly as hazard of frost is over with slightly of bone meal approximately an inch under each bulb and water nicely. they'll flower next season.

I guess I would be classified as a Calvinist, but there are a couple of points I waver on as I hear different thought on the matter. The "T", "U" and "P" are not a problem, it is the "L" and "I" that I sometimes question. But, I am a man with feet of clay who is still learning, so my wavering may be my humanness coming through.

I think this is just the sort of nonsense that christians probably spend their time pondering, instead of asking themselves why they follow the teachings of an ancient work of fiction...
