You confuse me. Your friends (and I don't mean this mean spirited towards you) at least seem consistant most of the time. On 1 post you tell me that Gods grace spares some and that He chooses them for no special reason and then you post that anyone who accepts Christ as their savior is saved. You were easier to understand when you were just plain baptist. Eph 1:5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
1Cr 1:27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
Cindy you would not have come to Christ if the Father did not draw you (John 6) , that is the bottom line.
All those that call the name of Christ he has adopted, and like all adoptions the parent (the Father) chooses the child .
I agree. The only difference I have with you (unless you also believe in salvation thru works) is that at some point in our lives He calls us all. Whether we answer or not something else.
