This is spot on DHK :thumbs: And I believe it needs it's own thread and Calvinist need to address this contradiction found in their own theology. I will set it up....

I believe the will of God is revealed in the scriptures, I don't find it illusive, and I don't find it Calvinistic. Why did the HS mess with my own personal path to eternal damnation? I do know. Because that is the work of the HS, to convict the WORLD of sin and truth. What that person does...

This is not the question. The question is unregenerate man completely unable to respond to God or not after his fall? The answer is crystal clear when we read how Adam was able to respond to God after his fall. As well as Cain. Should settle the matter, but Calvinist cling to Calvin's flawed...

It does indeed, so you believe Jesus was telling them to do something they could not do. This is the problem with Calvinism, all throughout the bible we find God commanding folks to seek God, repent and believe, while the Calvinist believes it is all in vain, God speaking in vain. Was the...

Adam, after he sinned, was capable of acknowledging God and believing Him. Nowhere do we read of Adam having hatred towards God. Yet that is where Calvinism must lead one, if it comes to pass then God caused it to come to pass, that would be everything. On the contrary, God set the plan up...

Exactly! :thumbsup: To give you an honest answer, he will have to drop the faith is a work strawman.

We can come to an appropriate definition of foreknowledge by asking and answering a few simple questions; Did God know Adam and Eve would sin? If Yes, Is this God having foreknowledge Adam and Eve would sin? If Yes, Does this then mean God's foreknowledge caused Adam and Eve to sin? If...

Tony can give his answer, but on your bolded parts, (1) God certainly asserts power and influence over the will of human beings, yet He gives them a choice, which leads to (2) God is going to destroy all who reject Him in the lake of fire.

One is born from above only when they call upon the Lord Jesus Christ and God gives them the Holy Spirit by which they forever cry ABBA Father. If God just zapped folks into believers through regeneration apart from any choice of their own free will, then He would have implemented a different...

Calvinism, as with all isms, is a battle waged within the intellect. But it is the heart, the spirit persuaded by Spirit, which determines what we actually believe. All Christians are free will at heart, it's how we live day to day, and it is how we even preach and teach when speaking without a...

Your free to hold that opinion, however I will stick with what Paul taught.

Amen! :thumbsup:

I don't know the numbers, but I would wager it is a very high percentage of born again believers who came to Christ through some other means than a Calvinism sermon. You call it all Satanic, do you really think that sits well with Jesus Christ? What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether...

Wonderful scriptures! :thumbsup: But back to my question, So do you have an answer to my question?

Not sure how you see sin pinned on God from those who understand freewill choice. I think it would be those who do not understand freewill choice who would look more as pinning sin on God.

If the scriptures so "amply demonstrate" this, there would be no debate. So why do you think God opted to give Adam and Eve a free will to choose their own spiritual fate and physical fate, knowing full well in doing so sin, death and destruction would plague His Creation? He could have not...

Then free will is not a myth....

Then it is not a myth......

Was Adam and Eve given a free will to choose between life and death?

You sure the DNC didn't send it?
