Yes, Dear Reader, the local pub was the place where one supposedly got the common man’s verdict on a variety of subjects … and this is called The Pub Test.
Yes, Dear
Reader, the local pub was the place where
one supposedly got the common man’s verdict on a variety of subjects …
and this
is called The Pub Test.
For
example, about seventy years ago in Australia,
governments would know in advance whether they would be unceremoniously
and
promptly bundled out of office, by the voting public, with the
following
question “I hear beer and cigarettes are set to go up?”
In short,
the Pub Test is a device used by
Journalists to ascertain the general consensus, indeed, the
‘temperature’ of an
issue, among the general public.
These ‘hit
and miss’ tests have now been replaced
with a more dignified, organized and sophisticated Focus Groups.
Here’s are
some more topics not passing the Pub
Test:
Interviewer: “Do you
think the moon is made of green cheese?”
Patron
thoughtfully stroking his chin: “Nup! … I don’t think that’s right!”
Patron: “No …
that’s
a very bad boss!”
Patron: “Now,
that’s one bad nasty dude!”
Yes Dear
Reader, but this is what the D.O.G.S would
have us theological donkey-brains believe about the character of their
God.
The basic
story of the D.O.G.S God is as
follows:
“God selected,
before the foundation of the
world, a small group of people to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ …
and the
rest to be cast into the everlasting and literal flames of hell … even
though
they hadn’t been born … and even though he commands all to
believe on
the Lord Jesus Christ … but they can’t believe no matter how hard they
try.”
Pub Test: “Look,
I’m
not a religious man, but even I know that is a definitely evil God …
and should
be condemned. How can God command you to
believe if he hasn’t chosen you to believe?”
The DOG
replies: “But Dear
Reader “You don’t understand. Consider the “all” of 1 Timothy
2:4 as
follows:
“Who
will have all men to be saved, and to come
unto the knowledge of the truth.”
It should
read as follows:
“Who
will have all elected men to be
saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.”
The common
man replies: “But the
Bible doesn’t say that … you are lying and being deceitful!
You’ve changed the meaning!”
The
DOG replies: “Oh
no I’m not … take for example another scripture “For God so loved
the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth
in him
should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16).
It
should read as follows:
“For
God so loved the elected world, that he
gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever of the elected world
believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John
3:16).
The
common man:
“Sniff! Sniff! I smell a rodent! You’ve put extra words in there to
completely
change the meaning!!!”
Oh yes dear
Reader, this is what the D.O.G.S (aka Calvinists) do … as they
come from
a long line of … Mmmm! Now let me think … how might I put it … swindling sophists, cunning
charlatans, hooded hoodwinkers, harmful hoaxers, imperious imposters,
deceitful
deluders, vicious villains, wearying wordsmiths, pernicious popelings,
rapscallion rogues, malicious monsters, snakish scoundrels, wanton
wastrels, tonsured
tricksters and subtil sophists …
Yes, starting with smelling
toilet of Greek
human wisdom, which is the wisdom of the world … and then passed down
through
the sewers to Augustine, the Doctor of Rome … then, with a bit of air
freshener,
a different wig and lipstick … into Calvinism … and into their latest
sauntering fashion on the catwalk … yes Dear Reader, you’ve got it … The
Doctrines of Grace.

Yes, Dear
Reader, watch TD and all his
friends …. Unconditional Election, Limited Atonement, Irresistible
Grace and
Perseverance of the Saints … disappear over the precipice …
like
one of
those trucks you see on TV,
with all the baddies inside.
