"Always remember, when somebody comes up with something new,
it's usually wrong. We are to be plagiarists of the same information that
God gave the first Christians." -- Dr. Matthew McMahon, aPuritansMind.com

You didn't think Calvinism would go down that easy, did you? :-) After all, some of the greatest theologians in the history of the Church have been Calvinists, and they certainly considered this verse which seems to say that God does not want anyone to perish. Here's what I think is the most thorough explanation that I've ever heard for this key passage of scripture. It's a 10 minute audio clip from a caller to James White's radio program, asking how this verse coexists with the doctrine of God's sovereign election. Click to listen in. By the way, after you listen to this audio clip, be sure to watch the video clip on this page relating to the same passage in 2 Peter, which says: The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.
