I was reading an article about Vermeer's children and this quote about the 1700s Dutch parenting style took me out.

Every day I understand a little more why the pilgrims were driven out of Europe.
Also wow we're really still deconstructing this Calvinist way of treating children in North America to this day. Props to 18th century Dutch people for being real chill I guess.

What is the doctrine of Limited Atonement? - Dr. R. C. Sproul
▶️My Twitter page https://twitter.com/RichMoo50267219 What is the doctrine of Limited Atonement? – Dr. R. C. Sproul John 10: 11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it. 13 The…

Daily Devotional: Romans 10:1-11
Daily Devotional: Romans 10:1-11
After writing about God’s work of predestination, Paul, still referring to Jews who were not predestined, shares his desire that they be saved. They have a zeal for God, but their zeal is without understanding. They are trying to establish their own righteousness instead of resting in God’s righteousness—something many religious people in every context do and is blasphemy religious people…

my guide to denominations
(I admit there are some exaggerations occasionally, but all exaggerations here have some basis in fact. Except the Baptist Bible-thumping competition, that part might not actually be true but it is close enough to explain the behavior of my local Baptists)
1. Catholic - you don't have to talk to anyone, actually we discourage it inside the worship area because we keep part of Jesus's body up front. BTW, we have 2,000 years of doctrine regarding suffering...wait, why are you splitting off already?
2. Orthodox - we are just as much the original church as the Catholics, even though we didn't break off from the Catholics until 1054 AD. It was all their fault, BTW. Want to go kill some Ukrainians? Who cares if they are Orthodox too, they are Ukrainians and our Russian Patriarch says it's ok!
3. Pentecostal - Do you like guitars? Do you like shouting languages that nobody understands, not even us? What do you mean? Nobody has Tourette's Syndrome here!
4. Baptist - the winner of this week's headcount in Bible thumping goes to...NEWBIE SHOWED UP! GET THEM! We need to warn them about all the different ways they are going to hell!
5. Presbyterian (PCUSA) - We have a potluck after church, please come and join us. Oh, you don't believe the same as us? That's ok! We don't actually have set beliefs!
6. actual Calvinists - So if you look at this chapter of Romans, it clearly explains why God made everybody to go to hell like a potter making pots in order to break them later. Unless, of course, God decided at creation that He would pick you out of the all the others who have ever lived.
7. Mormon - Of course we belong on this list! We are Christian too! (then mumbles quietly: along with some extra Scriptures and secret rituals that our founder added).
8. Jehovah's Witness - If I don't keep saving people, I will lose my place in the only 144,000 people join the heavenly bureaucracy pyramid scheme!

"If people aren't born guilty sinners incapable of doing anything but sin, then wouldn't that mean that someone could hypothetically live a sinless life?"
Yes, His name is Jesus Christ.
Your hypothetical is an essential reality of the Christian faith.

Meaning of the Rainbow
It's fitting that God made the rainbow the sign of the Noahic covenant. The colors rainbow can only manifest in rain, just as deliverance can only make itself known in light of destruction.
God's wrath and love are two sides of the same coin, it's only by passing through negation that the true light of redemption can be seen.
