“Yes. I did not like the part in the begining which seemed to say that God rather than the primary Mover, is in need of external motivation, — but I trust it is just vagueness of expression common among Protestants,”

There is nothing in the post that remotely hints that God is moved by anything outside of Himself. He is the prime mover in dispensing grace based on His own sovereign choices. That man would reject Christ is evidence that saving grace was not offered as it is irresistible by derfinition: “Grace created our choice.”

“but I trust it is just vagueness of expression common among Protestants”.

Gratuitous “ad hominems” are not appreciated nor are they warranted.
