Oh, maybe some get kicked a little differently than others, some a gentle nudge, others drop kicked, but yep,..I tend to think He's acted on us first to allow us to respond.

"Tending to think" this, that, or the other is quite different from advocating the Biblical Gospel, as preached by Jesus Christ (John 3:3).

• Calvinists preach that Man must be Regenerated in order to Believe.
• Arminians (and all who agree with Arminius on this central point, like yourself) preach that Man must Believe in order to be Regenerated.

"He's acted on us first to allow us to respond" is nothing more than "the gospel as preached by Wesley and De Molina". It's not the Gospel Preached by Jesus Christ. To wit:

• Calvinists, together with the Bible, preach that Man must be Born Again in order to see the Kingdom of God (which is to see the Lordship of God's annointed King Jesus).
• Connecthedots, and all Arminians, preach instead that Man must see the Kingdom of God (which is to see the Lordship of God's annointed King Jesus) in order to be Born Again.

As a matter of Logical precedence, must a Man be Born Again in order to believe in Jesus?
Yea, or Nay?
