More deflection, more stonewalling, more wasted electrons.Since god grants to us that saving faith even as a free gift, how can we get merited for something He provided to us? I am saying that those scriptures cannot mean what you make them out to be....
Does Y1 deny Romans 4:4-5, Romans 4:23-24? Take a guess. Does Y1 deny God credits our faith as righteousness? Take a guess. Does Y1 ever answer the question asked? Take a guess.
What is essential to being chosen, placed in Christ, and made alive together with Christ is God crediting our faith as righteousness. This is the truth the Calvinists try to bury in nonsense and deflection.
