The righteous folks in the Bible are righteous because they had faith in Christ.

It’s in the Bible.

“The righteous folks in the Bible are righteous because they had faith in Christ.”

Not arguing that! I’m asking (hypothetically) where there is an example of God turning a righteous person to wickedness - to show the extent of His sovereignty. The reason I am asking this is to bring light to the fact that God hardens wicked people - those who have already chosen wickedness (ex. Rom 1.)and He doesn’t go about randomly hardening people. He does, infact “... hardens whomever he wills.” but, according to Romans and Thessalonians He chooses to do so only to those who have already made their choice and rejected the light they have.

It’s also in the Bible.
