***Faith is only as good as the object it is placed in.***

Actually, this is a critical distinction. Arminians, if they are going to be true to their theology don't place their faith directly and ultimately in the Lord; they place it in their decision to accept the gift. This really is synergism. Those who have true faith, and there are Arminians who are inconsistent in their theology, place their faith solely and directly in a Lord who has already procured their salvation.

In the service of the Lord,
Christian.

For someone who allegedly spent so much time as an Arminian, or at least amongst them, you sure don't understand it very well.

Just what Arminian denomination was it where you learned such things? Or should I say "didn't learn?"
