Regeneration preceding faith is a lie.

It cannot be defended biblically when using correct methods of interpretation, like CONTEXT!

Once again for those who need simple language to display their oxymoronic beliefs.

You’re not unilaterally given life so that you can decide to come to the Giver of Life. No! You come to the Life Giver in order to GET NEW LIFE!

The idea that God has to fix you in order for you to come to Jesus is not biblical. Jesus is the fix.

We can also add.....

The idea that Adam had the power and authority to break us so we wouldn't come to Jesus, is also not Biblical.Calvinism makes Adam more sovereign than God.

Isaiah 30
King James Version
1 Woe to the rebellious children, saith the Lord, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
2 That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
 
Once again Romans chapter 1 explains that God manifest (makes Himself known) to everyone in various ways and from there it's on us who God made Himself known to to accept God.

Romans chapter 1 explains that everyone has no excuse should they choose to deny God because He made Himself known through creation, through the universe, through humanity, through everything we can see naturally. He made Himself known to others through the Holy Spirit, the Word of God, a multitude of different ways.

We either believe or reject this knowledge and information. This is what we truly will be judged for.
Could you plz site verses that you’re referring too? Thx!
 
In case you didnt know both elect and non elect will be at the Judgment, so I will see you there.

Oh, true. But I will not be surprised to wind up in heaven, because I believe God saves all repentant sinners,
whereas you may be surprised to end down in hell for demeaning divine righteousness and love for all humanity,
(which perverts the Gospel into heresy), because you mistakenly assumed you were one of the elect.
I urge you to repent of preaching TULIP before it is too late.

I dont know what your final destiny is, but I know right now you reject the Gospel of Gods Grace summarized in Tulip truths
