Yes. Do you see Arminians as Christians?

Steer clear of 'nonsense questions' and threads.

I don't care for Calvinists and @JonC is not a Calvinist. Vote, substantiate, then vent

Valid point. I meant is it possible to believe all you have and conclude God as not authoring sin Ok. Thank you.

Clarify. Did God decree or permit the Fall? The dizzying frequency with which these terms are interchanged amuses me hence my asking. Calvin (not you @JonC ) reckons it was decreed as per your definition. He was categorical that mere permission was fiction.

Would you say they are inconsistent? I mean is it possible to believe all that and not to charge God with authoring Sin?

So it's all about preference. Ok. What would you say of someone who holds on to all you said but at the same time vehemently denies God authored Sin? Thank you so much for your worthy contribution.

Thoroughly enjoying slideshows, but have you voted?

God, for Satan and his angels Depends on your definition of sinful nature. Can either be resisted? That would seem to be the logical For you where do you draw your values from?

What am saying is, saying 'not logical' without demonstrating it is shouting

Ok. But I think he was saying if that were the case you can't question God. But is it the case? That you don't know, not that scripture is silent

God infallibly reprobating billions for his glory and saving a few for his glory makes it pointless. He is essentially a confused monster working to undo his own ddecrees by other decrees yet he is glorified in all. God creating free beings who walk away from him is better. His crime again...

Paul was addressing the question of Israel, and he was not ducking. Besides,his was hypothetical. Here we are addressing actual circumstances. Be humble enough to concede ignorance. God.
