If God has saved me, why shouldn’t I produce fruit

Because it isn't fruit. It's a meaningless imitation of fruit in a puppet world where your or anyone else's fruit makes no real difference to anyone. It's busy work that makes you feel good at best.

That's the conclusion of Calvinist theology. A god that you serve by doing something that doesn't matter.

If you end up with this as god, you have left Christ who preaches to us, exhorts us, loves us, calls us to love one another and help each other... because if we do, it really does matter.

LOL, I think we’ve reached the point in this conversation where you’re mind is just going “system error!”, and so it just keeps repeating the same thing over and over again. Since I can’t do this all night, and I don’t want to do this for days on end, I’ll go ahead and end my involvement in this thread here, unless something EXTREMELY interesting is said. You don’t have to give me an answer, but I counsel you to take the scripture seriously, and leave off all these vain things.
