Ben and Jen's divorce announcement must have come too late yesterday to be included in the new issue, which is possibly not a coincidence. Bristol gets a sidebar story and I'm wondering, did she (or Sarah or anyone else with actual information about the "BREAKUP & PREGNANCY") talk to the magazine, or will the story simply be a recap of what's already been reported? I'm also curious to see if any of the other tabloids have Bristol on their cover with some kind of "exclusive." If so, you can figure she got paid to spill the beans. She (and Levi) reportedly got a six-figure paycheck when they gave US Weekly the exclusive scoop about their engagement in July, 2010:
This time around the story's already out there, so if Bristol wants a big payday, and there are rumors that she does, she'll have to spill something that hasn't been reported yet, like the name of the father or the reason why the marriage was called off. So far, Mama Grizzly hasn't weighed in about her soon-to-be third grandchild either. Is it possible Sarah isn't happy with Bristol? Three broken engagements, two out-of-wedlock children... Not exactly the conservative family values Sarah claims to believe in and represent.
And what about the Medal of Honor winner? So far he is completely absent from this story, but if he is indeed the father, which is presumably the case, he has responsibilities regardless of how things stand between him and Bristol. On his Facebook page he describes himself as a "Public Figure" and he appears to want a career as a motivational speaker. Abandoning his child? Not exactly the conservative family values he claims to believe in and represent.

WHY DO CALVINISTS PREACH THE GOSPEL?-BY STEVE FINNELL
Calvinists believe that God predestined each individual whom would receive salvation before the world was created. Is that a clear understanding of Scripture? No, it is not.
Ephesians 1:1-5 ....4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 5 having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,(NKJV)
Whom did God choose to be adopted as sons? He chose those who would believed and obeyed the gospel.
Ephesians 1:13 In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, (NKJV)
Who were those who were sealed with the Holy Spirit of of promise?
1. Those who trusted in Jesus were sealed.
2. Those who heard the word of truth, the gospel, were sealed.
3. Those who believed were sealed.
They were not predetermined to trust, hear the truth and believed. They had free-will to meet the terms for pardon.
Not one person was saved by grace alone. No one was saved before they believed Jesus was the Son of God. No one was saved before they were immersed in water for the forgiveness of their sins. No one was saved before they confessed Jesus as Lord and Christ. No one was saved before they believed that God resurrected Jesus from the grave. No one was saved before they repented. [John 3:16, Acts 2:38, Mark 16:16, Acts 3:19, Ephesians 2:8, Romans 10:9]
If some men have been individually predetermined for salvation and all other preordained to spend eternity in hell, then why preach the gospel?
Romans 10:17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.(NKJV)
Calvinists say faith comes by hearing only if you have been predetermined for salvation.
Romans 10:13 For "whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."(NKJV)
Calvinists say God individually predetermined who would be allowed to call on the Lord and be saved.
Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.(NKJV)
Calvinists say the gospel is only for those whom God has individually chosen for salvation.
Calvinists believe God forces His chosen to have faith and believe the gospel. They believe God individually selected most men to not believe in Jesus and to burn in hell.
In effect Calvinist believe God preordained most men to become atheists.
The burning question is why do Calvinists preach the gospel if men are saved by grace alone.
God predestined that Christians would have redemption through the blood of Christ. God did not predestined which individuals would become Christians.
Ephesians 1:7 In Him we have redemption, through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace. (NKJV)
