Is There A Calvinist Conspiracy Against Christmas, Charlie Brown?

- Oh no, Charlie Brown! The Calvinists are conspiring against Christmas! According to some, Calvinists (being the diabolical little devils that they are) have managed to hijack the proper reading of Luke 2:14 and changed it to fit their theology. Calvinists apparently have regard neither for the text of scripture nor for Linus and the true meaning of Christmas. Is this true? In today's podcast, we will take a look.

Just a quick observation about Linus' speech: When he quotes the angel "Fear not", he drops his security blanket. He no longer needs it. And, if memory serves, he never picks it up again (at least in this special). I've just always thought it's great that they included that detail.
That is a cool detail, although I believe he does pick it up again as he later uses it to support the little tree
That's beautiful. He is our security.
Yes you're so right. No blankie
I have watched this Charlie Brown special every year for nearly 50 years. Charlie Brown's search for Christmas culminating with Linus' speech, along with the antics of the rest, is a true classic. It's said, that originally ABC wanted to omit Linus' speech, but Charles Schultz was adamant. I once read an interview with the guy, as an adult, who voiced Linus at the time. He stated that it had such an impact on him, it became the center of his life.
I love this movie. It gives the Gospel to all who watch it each and every year. ❤
That is the only time Linus ever lets go of his blanket in any of the Charlie Brown shows.
Notice Linus had dropped his security blanket when he started talking about the Savior ...
Thank you so much Justin for this teaching! Especially introducing me to “antinomy”! It unlocked a struggle I was having between God’s sovereignty and man’s will. Praise God…
Praise God, Audrey! Blessings to you :)
@@JustinPetersMin Is paradox interchangeable with antinomy?
@@JustinPetersMin Justin is God’s Sovereignty in Salvation and Man’s free will response of faith an antinomy or paradox? Or something different? Mostly focused on Romans 9-11.
We find it very suspicious of him saying how he didnt raise concerns with his pastor since he's not one to complain, but yet he has no problem making complaints to the whole world through his social media platform
Yes, I thought the same thing!
lol Same here.
lol ikr
His whole channel is based around him complaining. How ironic.
Oh my Great Pumpkin! A cold, calculated contrived Calvinistic conspiracy!!!😲
Whatever are we to do???
😲😲😲😲😲
On a serious note, thank you so much, Brother Justin, for your godly service. Merry Christmas.✝️
Did somebody say, "Great Pumpkin?"
Who's Calvin ?
@@ritaschultz6859 John Calvin, a 16th century French theologian.
@@TheGourdKing yes thank you , why is he a boogie man ?
@@ritaschultz6859 It’s a rather lengthy subject, but there is a divide amongst Christians in regard to doctrines such as predestination, free will, total depravity, etc., and is typically simplified to Calvinism vs Arminianism, making Calvin something of a boogeyman to the Arminian side.
Appreciate you breaking this down for us, Brother Peters! I wish you, your wife, & Mia a safe & Happy Christmas! God bless you all!🌹🎄⛄⭐
Thank you, Sarah! Blessings to you as well!
The problem on this days with media is some brothers try to put they personal interpretation without go to a seminary or I le college, even without a God’s calling. This is dangerous. Thank you brother for addressing this situation.
That guy would have problem then reading this KJV : " Therefore hath HE MERCY ON WHOM HE WILL HAVE MERCY, AND WHOM HE WILL HE HARDENETH."
Romans 9:18 (KJV)
There is nothing wrong with reading either KJV or ESV/NASB, you just have to understand how they came to be and do exegesis. Faith on fire is not even in accordance with most baptists because he is just weird theologically
Thank you Justin peters. I use the NKJV and my husband uses the ESV. My brother gave me the Message I it went straight in the garbage. If someone gave me the Passion, that one I would burn. Thanks again for explaining this. I love your ministry. God bless you and your family this Christmas.
😂
Very well said dear. Burning that is what it deserves🔥 Blessed Christmas to you🙏
Both trash
I used to be really bothered by the idea that it’s God who elects us, not we who choose Him. I grew up in an arminian tradition so I thought it was a given that it’s up to man to choose to accept God’s grace. I remember being so grieved by the idea of unconditional election, thinking it was unfair-but as I continued to read the word and grow in sanctification, it only made sense that God chooses us. We are dead in our trespasses, slaves to sin before Christ. Only by His divine grace can we even begin to fathom loving God. So I understand that man’s aversion, but I pray he allows the word of God to speak for itself
Thank you Brother Justin your always a pleasure to listen too
Wow! I read the ESV and the CSB. It all means the same thing. That’s a ridiculous reaction. Merry Christmas, to you and your wife, Justin. Love the tree. 😊🎄
May God continue to shine upon you Justin. Stay blessed!
I love it when he says......Have no fear and drops his trusty blanket........Yes have no fear. Thank you for this Justin. I love your videos. So much truth we all need.
Thank you JUSTIN PETERS for making this very clear to me and to all that GOD ALMIGHTY have chosen before creation. 😇🙏🏻👍🏻
Just wow! Thank you Justin Peters. Just love the way you simplify the text for some of us who don't have a degree in theology but, love to understand these things.
God Bless you Dear Brother, Thank You for always sharing the Gospel and the Light of Scripture and showing the error of men
"A Hyper-Calvinist is an orthodox Calvinist being described by an Arminian"
-- R.C. Sproul
It's funny because it's true.
This is the the first time I have seen the Charlie Brown special . It’s so sweet
This was wonderful brother Justin. You have blessed my family and me so much, helping to bring us out of the WOF movement three years ago. Thank you dear brother…
Thank you Justin for your biblical teaching.
I find it a great blessing to view your videos.
I use the Reformation study bible ESV, and I find it to be great to study with.
Excellent. Blessings to you :)
ESV teaches Saul was one when he was King.
Samuel 13:1
English Standard Version
Saul Fights the Philistines
13 Saul lived for one year and then became king, and when he had reigned for two years over Israel,[a]
@@JustinPetersMin do a video on why the ESV teaches that Saul was one when he was King:
Samuel 13:1
English Standard Version
Saul Fights the Philistines
13 Saul lived for one year and then became king, and when he had reigned for two years over Israel,[a]
The original numbers have not been preserved in this text. It lit. reads, “Saul was one year old when he became king and ruled two years over Israel.” Acts 13:21 states that Saul ruled Israel 40 years. His age at his accession is recorded nowhere in Scripture. Probably the best reconstruction of 1 Sam. 13:1-2 is “Saul was one and (perhaps) thirty years old when he began to reign, and when he had reigned two years over Israel, then Saul chose for himself three thousand men of Israel . . . ”
This was an awesome video! Very interesting.
Merry Christmas! 🎄
We love you brother Justin. God bless!💙🙏
Thank you for that. What a wonderful exegesis and explanation.
Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Merry Christmas to you and your wife and family! Thank you so much for this teaching, I love Charlie Brown's Christmas too. God Bless!
Brother Justin thank you for your dedication and rightly dividing the word of the Truth. Thank you for breaking this down.
Thanks for this video! "A Charlie Brown Christmas" is my favorite movie! 🙋🏼♂️🌲📖Merry Christmas!
Thank you, Justin. I enjoyed and appreciated your efification on this subject. I just ordered that book on the Greek, here in Australia!
Love your videos! Keep them coming.
God bless you and Merry Christmas.
Thank you Mr. Peters.
Your work is continually appreciated.
Brian has said that he wants a one on one conversation/interview with you, private or public. I think that would have ironed most of his misunderstandings.
I have learnt so much from your teachings. May you have a merry Christmas.
That little tree is So cute !! 😍 Linus is Right !! JESUS Came to give HIS LIFE for us !
WOW! What an amazing explanation! Thank you!!! Merry Christmas and blessings to you and your family🙏🏻
A question to Justin Peter & all???? Moved by lust at the sight of her, King David called for Bathsheba to be brought to him and slept with her. David committed adultery with a married woman called Bathsheba, wife of Uriah. what's more, David murdered Uriah by proxy by ordering all of Uriah's comrades to abandon him in the midst of battle, so that he ended up getting killed by an opposing army. The Prophet Nathan was sent by God and warned King David. well, Torah verses clearly say that both URIAH and DAVID Blessed by GOD.
Well, the question is, if Uriah, David and Bathsheba go to heaven. To whom will Bathsheba be given?
Is Jesus a bastard? In the discussion Rabbi Yosef Mizrachi said that he had proof to prove that Jesus had a biological father! But he has not yet made it public! Why?
Thank you Justin for putting this podcast together for us. It is very helpful. Merry Christmas to you and Kathy.
Some people just have to get their opinions out there. I love Charlie Brown!!
Thank you Justin, awesome teaching... He or she who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved....Amen
Anyone else ever noticed how awesome his bookshelf is…. I mean the alligator skull is pretty cool
Merry Christmas to you and your family, Mr. Peters!!!
❣
Thayer’s Greek Lexicon found for free on Blue Letter Bible app gives the same explanation as Justin is giving. This is a great resource for anyone wanting to really geek out in the Greek.
Thank you!
I absolutely love your Channel. God Bless
Thank you for breaking things down the way that you do. I especially appreciate you defining "antinomy", as I had not heard of this and have struggled to understand and accept the idea of the sovereignty of God and "free will" to both be true. I've actually engaged in multiple debates on this taking the stance against free will and in support of the sovereignty of God alone. I can not deny the scripture that you point to that supports the position of both, resulting in an antinomy. Thank you for allowing God to work through you to help me and many others obtain a better understanding of what the Word of God truly says. God bless you brother!
Reading this makes my day, Christopher! I'm so glad it helped! blessings to you and your family and Merry Christmas!
@@JustinPetersMinThank you brother! A Merry Christmas and blessings to you and yours as well!
@@christopherlippens3168Your comment blessed me as well. Beautifully said. Blessed Christmas brother🙏
Wishing you and yours a blessed and Merry Christmas, Justin.
Taking a break from working with a Catholic friend concerning the authority of the NT (talk about multiple rabbit-holes of nuance to wade through), and this came across my feed...a welcome breath of clarity! When we seek to do "what is right in our own eyes," the hoops we're willing to jump through to justify our own opinions is simply breathtaking. Thank you for being faithful to His gift of teaching, and I pray for your ministry daily.
Merry Christmas to both of you,peace on earth.🎄🎁🎈🎉
When I'm seeking to explain a biblical antinomy to someone my favorite go-to verse is Proverbs 26:4-5:
"DO NOT ANSWER A FOOL ACCORDING TO HIS FOLLY,
Lest you also be like him.
ANSWER A FOOL ACCORDING TO HIS FOLLY,
Lest he be wise in his own eyes."
Thank you... Merry Christmas to you too brother.
Thanks a lot for this expository teaching sir.
Great video brother!
Thank you, love your Christmas message
Merry Christmas Justin! Thank you for faithfully presenting God's Word.
Merry Christmas Justin. 🎄 Thanks for this excellent video.
I went ahead and got The Charlie Brown Christmas on DVD, along with most of the other Charlie Brown shows. I knew I could not depend on the MSM to air them.
@22 mins
I love it when Inigo Montoya facilitates my Bible studies with Justin 😄.
The clip from the princess bride...lol!!!!
Thank you brother peters for all your content, you just don't know how much your videos have helped me recently with my faith walk...merry Christmas to you and your family
Pray for Brian it's not what is right or wrong he seems to get enjoyment out of proving others wrong God bless you brothers and sisters stay strong in him love from australia stay strong
Thank you brother for your ministry that refutes these unbiblical and at times bizarre theological positions. Some Arminians are so paranoid about anything that sounds Calvinistic in scripture.
Brian is not arminian... neither of those doctrines are biblical though.
Jesus came into his own and they received him not. How's that work out for a Calvanist.
@@josephphillips590 why do you think this verse wouldn’t work for a Calvinist??
This was a wonderful lesson concerning the person and work of Christ.
Listening to that clip of Charlie Brown brought tears to my eyes. I remember as Children my brother and sister and I used to love to watch Charlie brown. I loved going to Church to have our magical Christmas concert and as a child I liked Santa Claus but I always knew that the real reason for Christmas was all about the birth of Baby Jesus and I loved that story so much as a child. When they took more and more of the Bible and bible stories out of the schools and other public places the only result is a world in much more corruption and hate and division than ever before. I would love to have one woke know it all tell me one good thing that has resulted in demonizing God and further persecuting Christians in America and Canada. There is none. Nothing good has come from removing God.
It seemed to have started in the US
with SCOTUS IN JUNE 1963
5 months later, was JFK ASSASSINATION
If they knew what would happen 60 years later, they wouldnr.
People thought we'd be on the JETSON era in 2023..not 🏳️🌈swallowing up companies
Justin, I thank God for you. I love you, and Merry Christmas.
My kids, Won't do Christmas or Easter, b/c they ARE NOT in the bible.
Amen Brother.
All depends what you're defining as Christmas and Easter.
Im watching Charlie Brown Christmas this year as well. Ill be thinking about You and wife Cathy. Youve inspired me to get my own charlie brown tree after looking at your very, very, cool replica. As far as a "Calvinist Conspiracy" is concerned? All I can say is "Good Grief."
Well played :)
Thank you Sir for explaining this so clearly!
I don’t know if you’re the shepherd or the rod but you keep the flock safe. Keep up the good work. We love you, Brother!
Hrs a liar
Wow Justin. Thank you. I loved this one!!
Excellent teaching! Thank you, my brother!
I have a Greek/ Chaldees/ Hebrew Concordance... this is precisely why some people shouldn't assume they are intelligent enough or led by the Holy Spirit as to comment, critique such things... this guy is another example of a self-righteous individual leading many away from the true word.
Bless you, Justin, Cathy, and Mia.... Wishing you lots of love and happiness always. Thank you again for your magnificent ministry, Justin... have a safe , happy new year 🎉 ✨️ 😊 ❤️❤️🙏🙏🇦🇺🇦🇺
How could all of those bible scholars not consult what's his name before doing their translations?😤😁
My family bought an old bachelor friend of ours a Charlie Brown Christmas tree like yours about 10 years ago. He also uses it as his Christmas tree every year.
Wish I could talk my little ones into us doing that! I’m planning on a smaller tree this Christmas anyway. But a Charlie Brown tree would be amazing! We went to a tree farm to pick out our tree and we saw some really small ones and joked about getting one of. Those weren’t for sale but I might could have talked them into it.
Beautifully taught sir! God bless you & your family! Merry Christmas!
Great video!!! Merry Christmas 💚
This was very helpful!!
Beautifully put Mr Peters. He shall save His people from their sins. Merry Christmas! 💚!
Brian needs our prayers; and I hope others will join me in doing so, for to call out the saints [Justin, Susan Heck, John MacArthur], and to say: "Thus says the Lord" so openly places Brian on dangerous ground [Eph 5 v6]. Having a "zeal for God, but not in accordance with knowledge" [Rom 10 v2], only leads others into error. IF Brian is sincere re: Biblical truth he will take an honest look into what Justin has said though not to "save face," but to stop leading others astray and to glorify God.
Merry CHRISTmas Justin, Kathy, and the saints. I love your tree btw. :)
God is sovereign. Amen, Justin. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thankful for your sincere, humble teaching this past year!
The term ANTINOMY really helped me finally understand how predestination and free will can both be true
He shall be called Jesus, for He will save HIS PEOPLE from their sins.. All that the Father GIVES ME Will come to Me. Thank you Father. Thank you Son. Thank you Spirit three in One!
Merry Christmas to you and your sweet wife sir.
Thank you so much, Susan - Merry Christmas to y'all as well!
And I liked Charlie Brown and especially when Luke 2 is quoted by Linus. Brian is at it again… Justin I wish you a very Merry Christmas 🎄 and please pray for me. To pray better and to be granted repentance. My church uses the ESV, I don’t think there is anything wrong with the ESV.
Thank you for everything Justin
There is? I saw that title and clicked quick lol
Merry Christmas Justin
God bless you bro!
Justin - thank you so much for this, it was really enlightening!
I don't understand why some professing "Christians" hold such vitriol against Calvinism. Why is it so offensive to them the possibility of God being sovereign over salvation? Is God not sovereign? Then he is not God. I think it's a good indication that someone might not even be saved to hold such hatred of a doctrine reflected all through scripture.
Edit: I'm not saying anyone who doesn't believe Calvinism is not saved. I'm friends with lots of people who reject Calvinism, but don't condemn it as heresy. But his quip about the sermon being good because it doesn't have Calvinism in it is very telling.
It's good to differentiate between people who aren't Calvinists and people who are anti-calvinist. The former group is likely composed of many well meaning believers who have been poorly instructed. The latter group are usually composed of people who hate the biblical gospel, often legalists who see the gospel call as antinomian.
After watching this man with grimaced face slander our sister Susan Heck I’m not shocked he doesn’t do his due diligence to investigate the classical reformed faith.
Interesting he comments he wouldn’t be in a Calvinist church while I’ve been a Christian for 30 years and up until 3years ago I’ve only attended Arminian type churches because there were no reformed churches in my city. I didn’t agree on everything obviously and often endured mocking of the doctrine of election from the pulpit.
I remember RC Sproul taught if your in a church and they preach the gospel faithfully and aren’t teaching heresy you don’t have a great reason not to attend so I stayed.
We moved in 2019 and by God’s grace I found a small but great reformed baptist church near me that upholds the doctrines of grace. Our God is so gracious and merciful to his children.
Peace in Christ to all at this blessed time of year🙏 Excellent teaching Justin!
I remember when they cancelled the original spoony on lice for one year. People complained so much that Knott's brought it back the next year. And every year people cheer when the Luke passage is quoted. People want to hear the true meaning of Christmas.
The ESV is what helped me understand Gods Word years ago. I’ve been attacked by KJV only people. I will be sharing this video with them.
Just tell them to do research about how KJV came to be
As a KJV only person, I sincerely apologize for that on their behalf. I personally believe the KJV to be God's preserved Word for the English language and find issues with other translations, but I don't think we should alienate brothers and sisters over it and it doesn't make someone any more or less a child of God.
I have many friends that use other translations and I consider them dear bros and sisters in Christ, as well as having learned greatly from preachers that cited other translations.
I am 100% KJV when it comes to differences in translations. That is the ultimate authority over other versions .
@@LitoLochoss perhaps you should do a little research yourself mate th-cam.com/video/RmXBj2N9fhY/w-d-xo.html
and this might also make you see why i always use the KJV as the go to th-cam.com/video/Y6PI8TmdvdY/w-d-xo.html
@@agornath1 No
Thank you Justin. You have been a great blessing to me and my family. I believe that this type of clear exegesis is so important. It has been so helpful to getting many texts sorted out. Have a blessed Christmas and new year.
What he doesn’t know is the KJV translators were also at least Calvinistic leaning. Article 19 of the 39 Articles.
Justin -thank you for explaining the antinomy of Scripture so thoroughly. I have always believed in it but could never explain it to others. No one ever seems to accept the fact that their/ our understanding of God is so limited. I appreciate your ministry and your videos, and you are always in my prayers.
I hope that you and your family have a peaceful and blessed Christmas, and that all of us who believe can draw closer to Christ during this season. Merry Christmas.
PS- I also love the Charlie Brown special .. and your tree brought back a memory of my wife and my first Christmas after we married. We lived in a small apartment, and our tree was small Norfolk Pine in a plant pot.
The concept of antinomy is an eye-opening for me.
That’s how I am. I know things are true but I’m not good at explaining them to others!
I've listened, reluctantly, to this guy concerning his rebuking of Calvinism, and especially Justin Peters and John Macarthur. He doesn't even understand Calvinism but sure spouts off about it. I rebuked him about his comments one time, as they were ignorant, demeaning, and baseless. I find it better to avoid having to listen to him at all. Keep preaching Justin, you're a blessing to so many God fearing Christians.
You are correct - he does not even understand that which he hates so much and teaches so hard against. His ignorance is on full display with every video he does. Thank you for your kind words of encouragement - blessings to you.
I probably would not be surprised how many people have Charlie Brown Christmas Trees.
Thank you kind Sir. ❣
A very clear understanding! Thank - you.
My heart was warmed and my soul was blessed. 😁 Merry Christmas Peterson family!
Thank you Justin. I always learn a great deal from your videos. Merry Christmas to you and your family!!
So thankful!
Merry Christmas to you and your family, Justin!!
Thank you for your ministry!
Merry Christmas to the Peters house and thank you for your ministry.

Just the title made me laugh! Being one of those "waskly" so-called "Calvinists" I thought I've heard it all before. But no! Those with CDS (Calvin Derangement Syndrome) are the gift that keep giving! 😂 Downloaded this episode and plan to enjoy it in full later this evening. Thank you, Justin, for your faithful witness and stance of the Scriptures. We'd obviously have a couple disagreements here and there (who gets baptized, eschatology, the nitty-gritty of soteriology, etc), but we certainly agree that Christ is the only begotten son, God come in flesh, He died for our sins and was raised the 3rd day, as a propitiation for all who'd believe.
Thank you brother. And merry Christmas to you and yours
I know Calvinists who are in the TR camp.
It's hard to drop all the baggage you started with. The best I can tell it's the people who heard someone else complain about something and didn't bother to look at it for themselves.
I recommend understanding how we got our English New Testament so you can handle those arguments intelligently.
Bless you
I still have my kjv Thompson chain reference bible from the 80's, I wrote on every page of it back then, and mostly what I was doing was translating it into modern English, today on my computer I can open multiple versions at the same time to seek out a meaning.
Good will toward men is simply saying that the Lord is not willing for anyone to perish, He takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked. But by changing the text in these other versions, it is saying that the Lord has a "select" bunch He will show favor to. That is Calvinism 101.
