    No, rather God knowing what Adam and Eve would choose to do, would use their sin choices to bring even more glory to his name, as He turned what Satan sought to do for evil to be for His glory in the Cross of Lord Jesus!

    Before posting any more like this. Please do yourself a favour and check with the dictionary on the meanings of these terms.

    Because what you said is complete codswallop

    Obedience without works? (It's possible, I just want to get your position)

    Those of us that do not hold to your DoG or your view of sovereignty will point out your errors. We do that because of Christian love for the misinformed. Over the years there have been a number of distortions of the Christian message, yours is just one more such distortion.

    If God grants repentance and faith simultaneously when the person is regenerated The person then exercises those gifts

    There are ZERO good works that any sinner can do to merit their salvation. It is because of God's Grace that we are saved, through REPENTANCE and FAITH

    How so, Oh right you think you hav
    Well of course not as according to Calvinism God has picked out all those that are lost and they have no chance to trust in Him.

    Delete "in the sense of 'ordaining it'' and we are agreed.
    To some extent, God is responsible for allowing the free will of angels and men to introduce sin into his worlds.
    That it not the same as predestinating things, in which case, God causes sin, deny it as forcibly as many do.

    I reject both Calvinism and Arminianism, so it's consistent for me.

    So are you saying that faith = repentance? I.e. that the repentance is a change of heart from unbelief to belief, apart from doing any good works? Just trying to understand you.

    Just shows you do not understand free will.
