Evan Berg: Grace Christian Fellowship is a Calvinist church which believes "God" chooses the minority who gets saved i.e. goes to heaven and forces everyone else to go to hell (they have NO FREEWILL). The Pastor spoke with me the first time visiting and said "God sends people to hell for His glory" and smiled as if the Lord Almighty needs to do that for increased glory.
John 3:16 says "whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life" meaning everyone has the potential to believe and go to heaven. This is the most famous verse in the Bible, even non-Christians have heard of it and seen it.
Dont bother getting into a discussion with any hardcore Calvinist or church that believes in TULIP; total depravity, unconditional election, limited atonement, irresistibility of grace and final perseverance of the saints. Total waste of time and will NOT bear fruit.
On another note, the congregation was welcoming and obviously does not know or understand the meat of the Word to contest the blasphemy of John Calvins false teachers.
Grove Ayers: A beautiful Catholic church on the campus of Gonzaga University. The grounds are always well cared-for, the roses well groomed. There are self-guided tours of the church available...worth spending some time admiring the craftsmanship and care that has gone into the building.
