No, because the non-Elect will not reach for it. So it's not a matter of God withholding from the non-Elect something for which they are yearning. So God offers this gift to all, but knows some will not accept (reach for it)? I'm with you here. WILL NOT REACH sounds a lot like free will though ,don't you think? :')

Not for a corpse. They don't reach for stuff (except in zombie movies and Arminian theology). :-)

WILL NOT REACH sounds a lot like free will though ,don't you think? :')It sure does CD. Calvinists have affirmed this Free-Will over and over again. We agree that those who do not believe do so of their own Free Will. I have been saying that since I jumped back on this thread.
