CharismaticLady, I agreed with you when you said, concerning Israel, God did not fail. But the reason I agreed seems to be different than what you are saying there. It's opinion, I'm sorry to say, not scriptures. I can show you in scriptures why God did not fail concerning Israel. It is off topic. But if you are interested, please just say so. Either I start a new thread or we'll just have a conversation.He set up the medicine, but did not make anyone take it. What good is love if it is forced? Is it true love? No.
Choice is free will and against Calvinist doctrine. Irresistible grace is what Calvinists believe opposes free will. Are you a Calvinist? I thought you were until this question.
No I am not a Calvinist. I am a Christian. It is Jesus Christ whom I follow and listen to. So, please take Calvin out of our exchanges. If my view happens to be in line with his view, that would just be coincidence and does not in any way mean that I am a Calvinist. Also, do not read into my post whatever it is you know about the beliefs of Calvin and hold me as though those were necessarily my beliefs.
