The point is and has been that ALL non-Reformed churches and organizations ALL teach that it is one's own faith that saves. Without "me" believing, despite all that God has done on my behalf, I cannot be saved. As Billy Graham unashamedly said and wrote, "God has done all he can do to save you... Now, it's up to you!" Ask any non-Reformed person why he/she is saved and not his/her neighbor and invariably, the answer will be, "Because I chose to believe/ask Jesus into my heart/read the prayer on the back of the card/went forward at some crusade or revival meeting, etc., etc., ad nauseam. Their "faith and assurance" is grounded upon their "faith". Since God loves everybody and Christ died for everybody and the Holy Spirit tries to bring everybody that which differs between those who are allegedly saved and those who aren't is what the professing Christian has DONE... "I chose to believe".

Yet, even though these churches teach/preach an idol for God, a false Jesus, a false Spirit, a false Gospel and countless other false teachings, you insist that many (most?) of those associated with those churches and teachings are to be considered "brothers and sisters in Christ"... which is the very definition of "Tolerant Calvinism"!
