I'm new here so if this has been rehashed before you can just point me to that thread. So here it goes.

I can not for the life of me understand how anyone who has read Spurgeon even marginally can say that he was not a Calvinist. My mom bought the 4 volume set of his sermons for me for Christmas. After reading just 10 sermons his stance on Calvinism and the sovereignty of God is blatantly obvious.

After being told by some Arminians that "Oh, we like Spurgeon" I can only conclude the following.

1) They have never read Spurgeon and are just name dropping

2)They have read Spurgeon and are just being (incredibly) intellectually dishonest

3)They are liars

Did he not take the position that only from an understanding of Calvinsim that one could be saved, and now Dave Hunt is turning that around? Am I missing something here??
