Gene Cunningham presented “Election, Predestination, and the Plan of God: The Biblical Case Against Calvinism, Lordship Salvation, and Replacement Theology” at the annual conference in Prescott, Arizona, September 7th through 9th. Gene’s teaching refutes Calvinism (Romans 9), Lordship Salvation (Romans 10), and Replacement Theology (Romans 11).
“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those
who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also
predestined, to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the
firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called;
whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.”
Romans 8:28–30

Losing To Gain #3
We study the Word so that we can be changed -- transformed into the image of Christ. Paul wants the Philippians to know that the Hand of God's Providence was working toward the benefit of the Gospel and them (Phi 1:12-13, Phi 1:24-25). Philippians were using their material blessings for others (Phi 4:10-13, Phi 4:19). "I have learned" (Phi 4:11). Paul was a disciple (2Ti 2:15); it takes a disciple to make a disciple (Joh 13:7, Jam 1:21). Christ is both the master of the school and its topic. "I know how" developed through practice. "Wisdom is justified [verified] in her children" (Mat 11:19, Luk 7:35). "I can do". We have reasons to endure the little inconveniences to prepare for the big ones (Joh 14:17-18, Heb 13:5-6).
