The TULIP approach takes this view of salvation:
If you seek it, you can't find it.
If you find it, you can't get it.
If you get it, you can't lose it.
If you lose it, you never had it.
Sorry, but it makes about as much sense as Obama's economic policies....

Nope. Calvinism goes more like this:
If it doesnt seek you, you wont seek it.
If you do seek it, it is already seeking you.
If you find it, you get to keep it.
If you have it, it will transform your life.
If you dont have it, you wont care that you dont have it, until its too late.
Makes sense all right, but mainly because that’s what the Bible teaches.

You're right, that's how it is with Calvinism and it's ridiculous. Romans 2:11 says that God is not a respector of persons. Well, if God unconditionally elected only a few to be saved, then it demands that he unconditionally unelected the majority. That's not fair when you consider that He will turn around and judge these people. Calvinism isn't something to be thanking God for. Thanks for you comment.
