"Give that Titus says that grace has appeared to all men, I come to the conclusion that you are 180o wrong."

Ping to 63.

And, there is no epistle penned by Titus. The epistle of that name is Paul to Titus and nowhere does Paul claim that men have a will that is not conditioned by God. He was granted grace because, as he says, "He who had set me apart, even from my mother's womb, and called me through His grace, was please to reveal His Son in me,..." Gal.

And Paul's explanation of the Gospel of grace discloses the same thing everywhere: God accomplishes everything. It does not depend upon the man who wills (chooses) or the man who runs (acts), but upon God. Rom. For it is God at work in you to both will and to do His good pleasure. Phil.

Your conclusion is even conditioned by God. Some are granted an opportunity to see; others are not.

Wow. You take a reference to a book and pretend I'm referencing an author?

Since your skill at interpreting even mundane text seems to be lacking, I have no idea how to go about discussing text (and context) with you.

Is this how you normally get people to quit pestering you with facts?
