"Did God harden Pharoah's heart?"

Exodus 8:15 - But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he hardened his heart,

Exodus 8:32 - And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also,

Exodus 8:32 - And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh,



The Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart after Pharaoh hardened his own heart several times.

There comes a time when an individual has rejected God for the last time and He withdraws any further opportunity for repentance.



So did foreordain you to commit the last sin you committed?

The Bible recounts that episode specifically, by name. It is coordinated with his divine intervention in the form of miraculous events. One cannot claim logically that because the Bible expressly names the act of God hardening Pharaoh's heart the doctrine of Calvinism is true.
