DR.E: The choice we make is God's plan.

Ah, so you believe that God's plan is dependent on YOUR CHOICE?

So that's how you read my sentence? Backwards?

Figures.

God's plan precedes everything (Eph. 1.) Our choices follow as part of God's plan.

If that were not true, then it would be our plan and God would be going along with our plan which is what all Roman Catholics, Arminians, Pelagians and semi-Pelagians believe.

As you said yourself, salvation only occurs because we agree to it, thus making our choice to believe the deciding factor.

Which is not Scriptural. We have not chosen Him. He has chosen us and conformed us to His Son through His mercy and not debt.

His plan. His mercy. His grace. His salvation.

To: Dr. Eckleburg

So going by the statement, is it right that the OPC believes that God’s plan is dependent on YOUR CHOICE?
