(John 6:50-71) We conclude our study in John 6, a passage which contains several verses used by Calvinists to support their doctrines, including our current topic: irresistible grace. Jesus declares Himself to be the Bread of Life, the One who alone provides spiritual life, everlasting life, In the last portion of His discourse He stresses that only those who partake of Him will actually receive this life. Many of those who had followed Him, when they heard His words, were offended and many went back and walked with Him no more. Only those who truly believed continued with Him, knowing He had the words of eternal life.
In this series, we examine the 5 points of Calvinism, typically specified by the TULIP acronym, to see whether they are consistent with the teachings of Scripture.
