So do agree with Wesley on the "second Blessing ",and that you can loose your salvation?

A Wesleyan Pastor told me that Foreknowlege = predestination...Ummmmmm

Just because I cite someone doesn't mean I agree with everything they say.

The point that Wesley was making was that God is not arbitrary and cannot be unfair.

Choosing some and damning others based on His own choice, for no objective reason would be so.

The scriptures state very clearly that is not God's nature (1Tim.2:4, 2Pet.3:9, Jn.3:16)

As an Independent Baptist, I believe in eternal security not the perservance of the saints .

So, hopefully, you will not do anything to doubt that you are one of the 'elect' as many Calvinists come to think, not really being sure of their salvation since they can always 'fall away' thus, revealing that they were not really the 'elect' at all!
