Yes! Good stuff. You are also right when you point out that when talking about regeneration preceeding belief, we are not atomically talking about a temporal order, but a logical one. This, I believe, is the true sense of 1 John 5:1.
BTW, what do you think about the efforts on this thread to paint Calvin as a synergist?
