Show me the scripture that says men have not been predestined to heaven or hell. Jn 3:16 does not say that.

John 3:16 totally and completely refutes Calvinism
God so loved the word, Means that God loves all of mankind. Not just some of mankind.
That he gave his only begotten Son. Means that God sacrificed his Son for the sins of the world.
That WHOSOEVER believes in him shall not perish. Means that salvation is for everyone.

Salvation is a gift from God. NOT an imposition. If you don't accept the free gift, you lose.

If it is a work it is a work that we should do.

So now you teach salvation by works, which is condemned by scripture, and also you deny salvation by the death/blood of Christ alone !
God offers salvation to everyone as a free Gift, Ephesians 2:8.
All that you have to do is receive it.

False statement. You don't believe that Christ death alone saved them He died for, that is unbelief!

Of course it does. You problem is that you would rather believe the words of a heretic than to believe God's word.

You are not able to refute what I say with scripture. All that you can do is make false accusations.

The Bible is a truthful book.
"Whosoever that shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved" Romans 10:13.
This one scripture refutes Calvinism.

Since when did you believe the scripture? You don't believe that Christ death alone saved sinners He died for, that is unbelief!
