[P-Marlowe]

I said choice, not chance. God deliberately gives us that choice, rather than making it for us.

But if he does not interfere with your "free will" decision, then he is leaving your salvation up to chance. Isn't that true?

So how does God leave it up to you but not leave it up to chance?

If we have no choice in it, then the only critical link in our salvation is election.

Even if you have a choice in it, the critical link would still be election. Is it not?

Do you get to choose where you will spend eternity, or is God going to be the one who makes that determination?

If God makes that determination, then when in eternity did he make that determination?

Is it yet future?

Is he waiting on you to make the correct decisions, or is he already building a mansion for you in Heaven?

I see you found the Institutes. Are they the original autographed edition that has been passed down to the Neeners?

I thought I had loaned them to xzins for some corrections but I must have left them at the last mud wrestling event. Are they still in pristine condition or did some of the thrown barbecue sauce get on them?
