So says you. You won't find that in any of my post. Deal with what i actually say. ;)

"For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in." (Ro 11:20) Is is appropriate that Paul speaks of ignorance and conceits for not...

So God did not give Adam a choice in the garden?

So you limit God's Sovereignty in that you declare God is not allowed to give man a free will to choose things?

Then man's will overrode God's will, correct?

God's will is always accomplished, we agree. What we do not agree upon is that God has factored in the will He has given man to make choices, even knowing the wrong choices man will make. It's a beautiful thing! A perfect plan to educate His creation and for Him to develop a creation that can...

Israel wanted an earthly king. God did not want Israel to have an earthly king. But Israel got their earthly king. So did man's will usurp God's Sovereignty for them not to have an earthly king? This is not about man's will destroying the Sovereignty of God. God by his Sovereignty has given...

Thanks! Yeah that pretty much shows the RCC is not preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Lol. Good one! I already know why, you do not because Calvinism will not allow you to see it. Those who cannot choose do to blindness do not need additional blinding.

Hey Menno, btw, guess what song we sang in church this Sunday? Victory in Jesus!! Ever sing that one? "He sought me and He bought me with His redeeming blood" Amen!

Ok, let me try once again.... Was it Adam's will to sin, or was it God's will that Adam should sin, or maybe both?

Here is what you posted.... "Read Ezekiel and Jeremiah to understand the Sovereign work of God in placing stumbling blocks before those who will not believe". Now if those who will not believe cannot believe without God causing them to believe then why does God need to place stumbling blocks...

You did not answer my question. I agree God ordained the fall. The question is... "Was it Adam's will to sin or was it God's will that Adam would sin?" Yes, according to your view, but you did not explain... "Can you explain why God would have to take additional steps to prevent someone from...

The Calvinist cannot fathom a Sovereign God allowing His creation a will to make choices which may go against His Own will that He would have them to do. Are you not limiting God's own Sovereignty?

Let's just clarify. Was it Adam's will to sin or was it God's will that Adam would sin? Can you explain why God would have to take additional steps to prevent someone from believing if God has already proclaimed that they could not possibly believe without God causing them to believe?

You are going to have to be more specific when speaking about God's will and man's will. When does God's will take effect and when does God allow man's will take effect? Does God have the right to give man a choice (will) without giving up His own Sovereign will? "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou...

When you say ordained by God, are you saying God caused all things that come to pass? Like God caused Adam to sin?

Then you have not studied out what it means to be born again. How can one stop believing in that which they have a personal knowledge is an absolute truth? "For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba...

You will not find any Scripture which supports such a thing. You must first know what the Scripture says about being born-again. Then you must interpret Scripture with Scripture and you will not find any Scripture which promotes a born of God Christian losing their eternal life standing with God.

Say you are not faithful, is she still your wife? Say you get yourself a certificate of divorce from the state, is she still your wife according to God?
