I would like to know how you have arrived at this conclusion since the bible and every other christian we've had on this forum thinks differently.
Quote:It is the view that "regeneration precedes faith" (monergism). To see what Scripture teaches about this, just look at the conversions in the New Testament. Look at Paul (Saul): what is it that he believed or did that led to his having faith? Or how about Lydia (Acts 16)?

Ahh, so god has decided to make you one of his special little friends(the elect) and is going to ignore the rest of us therefore consigning us to hell. How very merciful.

Quote:It is also refreshing to see that with all the death, pain and misery on this planet that god consistantly ignores,he was able to find the time to convince you to be a christian.
Quote:It was my being convicted of the fact that I am responsible for pain, misery and death that began the whole process.
Perhaps you would think it better that God simply wiped out human beings to prevent our evil; in which case, I am thankful that you are not God.

No, I think god does not exist and therefore is not in a position to do anything.

But I find it interesting that you think that you are responsible for all the misery in the world, that's some guilt trip you're on there.....
