We are talking past each other. What makes you think the teachings of Arminius in any way degrade God’s sovereignty?
If it pleases God to give everyone a chance to repent, who are you to tell him he cannot? If God’s choice is ‘whosoever believes’, then who are you to tell him no?
“If you really knew Dr. E you would know just how gracious, loving and patient she is, otherwise she would not waste her time trying to educate lurkers to the truth.”

Because his teachings implicitly deny that God is righteous.

"30 The times of ignorance God overlooked, but
now he commands all people everywhere to repent, 31because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead." - Acts 17
Why does God command what he will not permit?
