I agree. It would be a lot more honest if they simply told them "Look, some of you will be saved no matter what, and some of you will be damned, no matter what. God made that decision before you even existed, so quit bellyaching. Those of you who will be saved will "know" it but others won't. Amen." End of preaching. This sums up the entire Reformed theology.
If (God forbid), Forest Keeper (e.g.) was of the selected elected elite and decided that he would spend the rest of his life murdering left handed Carmelite nuns simply because it occurred to him to do it, then he would go to the Reformed heaven regardless of his actions.
Reformed heaven? Is that like a refomed home for delinquents? (/sar) Sorry, FK, couldn't resist. :) It's not personal, FK. We do love you and I know you'd never do anything to left-handed Carmelite nuns unless they were dirty liberal democrats. :)
Well I appreciate that Kosta. :) Maybe there should be a codicil saying that if they were dirty liberal Democrats, then they never had faith in the first place. :)
