Bing, and who placed your preferences into you?
Well, I was gonna go sarcastic, but instead....
I would first change the verb to "who is placing your preferences in to you" as I believe that I am still being sanctified though I have already been declared righteous in God's sight. And it is the work of the Holy Spirit in me which is giving me those preferences as I crucify the flesh daily. And He (the Holy Spirit) is placing those preferences in me as a natural follow of my acceptance of the gift of grace which He freely offers to whosoever will. And whosoever really means "whosoever." It's quite a radical doctrine, I know, but I'm particularly enamored with it.
