That doesn't give me the impression 1 John is useless. It gives me the impression you're a disagreeable moron.
I am disagreeable when it comes to someone who is wrong. Whether or not I am a moron, I do not know you well enough to determine whether or not you are qualified to give such a diagnosis.
Read his whole post. He didn't just say "you'll know," he mentined how you will know. You're arrogantly trying to project arrogance onto him.

This is a clear statement that was made that is not Biblical, and very arrogant. I do read the whole post. If he would have just dealt with how you will know I would not have a problem. However this statement is made made many times who hold to the Calvinistic teaching. I am not saying all but I hear it as I travel around the country in many different locations and congregations I am around. Where this statement is coming from I do not know but it is completely in every sense false.
