You sure are quite adept at taking things out of context...

Yet, another cryptic statement by a Calvinist! But hey, since you are a Calvinist you do not have to actually explain what you say.

He meant, that you have excerpted my proposal that we excise all considerations of Total Depravity from our reading of Matthew 11:20-27, but have neglected to acknowledge that point against which you have no defense: That looking through history at the fact that Tyre would freely choose Repentance if He performed miracles, and would freely choose Non-Repentance if he did not perform miracles, God chose not to perform miracles and so pre-determined that the Tyrians would choose to Not Repent and be eternally Damned.

You have admitted that God's choices pre-determined whether or not the Tyrians would choose to Repent, hence, God absolutely predestines some to Salvation and some to Damnation of His own sovereign Will and His election to that effect pre-determines Man's choices to Repent or to Not Repent.
