Potter's Freedom!
You assuming she had the ability within her self to accept the Gospel offer, but Paul tells us what man is like in there natural state: Rom 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: Rom 3:11 There is none that understandeth, THERE IS NONE THAT SEEKETH AFTER GOD. Rom 3:12... -

Predestination and Free Will
Quickly... Augustine taught reprobation: [God] used the very will of the creature which was working in opposition to the Creator’s will as an instrument for carrying out His will, the supremely Good thus turning to good account even what is evil, to the condemnation of those whom in His... -

Potter's Freedom!
Vic, we need to allow the context to speak for the meaning of the word “all.†In the greater context of scripture we know that Christ’s blood was shed for many [Matt. 26:28]. The problem I have is with the assumption that man is honestly trying to please God, giving the... -

Potter's Freedom!
How are we saved Vic? Through the blood of Christ. No matter which way we define the word elect, the elect need the love of God thru the blood of Christ...both Calvinist and Arminians declare it so. We are saved by the blood of Christ which was shed for many [not all]. Can you show me the... -

Potter's Freedom!
I agree with much of this, but we are described as clay, not finished pots. I was with you until #3. The idea of choice was inserted by you golfjack. Jeremiah’s illustration also reads, “ And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter:†That is... -

Potter's Freedom!
God bless ya Vic, good questions. I’m back to work now after the holidays so I’ll respond quickly, if it sounds a little disjointed forgive me. This is off the top of my head without my favourite Bible or commentary. For sake of speed I’ll use a few quotes from myself in... -

Potter's Freedom!
Vic, your question was asked of Paul, "why doth he yet find fault?" Paul answered the question with a question. It's not what most would accept, but it's the word of God: Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will? Nay but, O man, who art thou... -

Christianity and the Meaning of Life
Ok, common problems in communicating soveriginty and responsibility, so let me try to clear it up. The idea of free will needs to be clear to avoid confusion. You’ve probably noticed by now that I have claimed freewill and also have denied based on the context of the post or by what...- JM

Begging the question. God gives laws that no one can follow perfectly, thus breaking all of them, how is it different? You insert the idea and then fail to supply proof from the text we are discussing. ~J~- JM

Calvinism
I don't believe RED is talking about the epistemological foundation of the word, but it's common use. We do have different starting points, one uses the Bible as it's starting point the other tradition. ~JM~- JM

Potter's Freedom!
With all the recent threads on salvation and faith as well as a need for Biblical analogies in these dicussion threads, ever consider the potter's analogy from scripture? Why did the Holy Spirit use this analogy? The analogy seems very simple, the potter does whatever he likes with a... -

Is faith a condition?
John Gill wrote: 1. Faith is not the cause, but an effect of justification; it is not the cause of it in any sense; it is not the moving cause, that is the free grace of God; "Being justified freely by his grace", #Ro 3:24 nor the efficient cause of it; "It is God that justifies", #Ro 8:33 nor... -
