The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

If predestination is true then why bother talking about Jesus to others and not just build a bunch of churches within walking distance and make Bibles and guides widespread and available in every single format so that way regardless if one is predestined due to natural inclinations or through 100% of God’s orchestration they will at least come across some Christian material or establishment and therefore eventually be saved?

Because Calvin was a victim of his own pride mixed with the demonic influence of Martin Luther. If you look hard enough, all prot theology doesn't hold water to the thousands of years of tradition that was established when Jesus gave St. Peter the keys.

How does disunity imply they’re all wrong? The Catholic Church isn’t in unity with them either.

At least read the damn Wiki page before starting a thread. It's clear you aren't familiar with the topic. Also, please use punctuation in future.

Predestination is true. It's the desire to explain it all in a system that's wrong. We don't know the mind of God to that extent. We only know him through revelation - it's true enough that the idea of predestination is divinely revealed. But understanding how it works is not. Scholastic theologians (which includes Calvin most of all), philosophers, and scientists together are all equally at fault for starting with the premise that the Intellect is some kind of divine tool in and of itself to understand God. It's not. We have no tools but revelation. Once that is settled, everything comes to it's proper place. "Be still, and know that I am God." Also, the "fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom".

I see zero fear in the man trying to dissect God, like he's some frog in his middle school science class.
