    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    The unbeliever believes because he was predestined to do so. Man's will is always in sync with God's!

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    The "us" is Jesus. Don't you know that Jesus had a multiple personality disorder? I'm sure CV5 will elaborate on that for you. :rolleyes:

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Did you have a point to make? :rolleyes: When the soul separates from the body, what ability does the body have to restore itself?

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Ahh...you're feeling left out as a non-elect? Be of good cheer! God did make TWO lumps of clay. God chose the second lump, as well, albeit for a different purpose (Rom 9:21).

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    The condition of my heart is HONEST by the grace of God. Unlike you FWer heretics, I don't meticulously avoid explicit passages that appear to not square with my theology.

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    You deflect from my question. Since YOU do not believe that the grace/power of God has any efficacy to it, then what was ultimate, efficacious mechanism that makes a sinner repent and believe the gospel? Did your dog make you believe the gospel? Your cat? Your pet lizard? Turtle? What?

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    I didn't ask what Jesus was...but what He is now, as the REIGNING King of kings and Lord of lords. Do you think Jesus NOW -- in Heaven -- sitting on his Throne -- is the lowly Servant who came into this world to accomplish his Father's will?

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    What self-flattering, self-righteous, willfully ignorant attitude! ALL men are liars! And this is because all men are sinners. And indwelling sin itself is deceitful (Heb 3:13)! So, when you make such stupid, outlandish statement, you're in effect saying that not all men are sinners. :rolleyes:

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    It doesn't take much at all tear down flimsy, anemic, weak heresies. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Why is that? Because God hates sinners, as required by the moral nature of his Love? Ps 5:4-6 You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil; with you the wicked cannot dwell. 5 The arrogant cannot stand in your presence; you hate all who do wrong. 6 You destroy those who tell lies...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    So Jesus has no royal authority as King of kings and Lord of lords? Jesus is still in servant mode, is He?

    You're delusional.

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    But the natural man's heart is filled with self-deceit and pride and will not permit him to admit to his NEED! Sinners don't have to be spiritual gurus to see that the world is broken and that he is, too. Most sinners just brush those "little factoids" aside and says God made me like this, so...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    It's IMPLICIT in FWT. Since there's no efficacy in God's grace, then tell us what effectively and ultimately moves a person to believe the gospel if it isn't man's "freewill"?

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    No! What God "ensures" is that those whom He gave to Christ will go to Him. Besides, this has to be the case since small children are not equipped to be self-reliant, self-sufficient or self-sustaining.

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    FWers emulate their father of lies faithfully and flawlessly, don't they? They have NO idea how important the role of Agape Love is in effecting man's salvation. They are so willfully blind to the truth, all they can do is blaspheme God and picture him with whips and chains driving man like...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Of course, he has to be chosen. God only effectually calls those He foreknew in eternity. Even Christ was chosen and called! Since this is the case with the Head, how could it be any different for His Body? But I do appreciate you publicly parading your gross ignorance of the holy scriptures.

    Take it up with my "cohort". Just remember, though: Agape Love comes only in and through Christ. God only helps the children of Abraham.

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Heck no! Barely dead in a FWer's mind. Dead to them = a minor scratch. They continually downplay the serious, devastating and universal effects of sin upon the entire man.

    So, now you're a pseudo, wanna-be psychologist, too, Mr. Lover of the Word?
