"If He gives to the elect the eyes or the Grace to see their sin and be saved and to unelect He does not give such Grace, and it is this Grace that determines man's fate, then how can this be considered just. "

OF COURSE IT'S NOT "JUST"!!!!

That is why it is called ~GRACE~!!!!! -UNMERITED favor!!!!!!

It seems to me that insisting that God be just in dealing with those who are saved and those who are damned ~REQUIRES~ that those who are saved must somehow be ~DESERVING~ of God's favor.

Either it is by Grace Alone and All of God -or it is not.

There can be no other way.

What is it in man that he wants to elevate human justice above divine purpose?
