    The one doesn't preclude the other. The point is this: the unfaithful amongst the Jews cannot say they weren't "called". "Theirs is the...

    Anger moves from the originator to the recipient, but may turn back again (not necessarily with the idea of return to the starting...

    "For many are called, but few are chosen." Matt 22:14. You need to revisit the Old Testament, to discover how the Israelites, who are...

    cjab replied to the thread Romans 9.
    Where does the bible say that anyone merits election? Isn't the point of Rom 9:11 to suggest that election is of God's mercy and not of...

    cjab replied to the thread Who is a Calvinist?.
    Contradiction and incoherence always lead to issues. And TULIP doesn't appear to resolve them. I would also discount "I" as a...
