“Would you show me where you get grace from that? I see knowledge that there is a God but no grace from God.”

I guess I consider God’s revealing Himself to unbelieving men an act of grace. We deserve nothing, yet God chooses to reveal Himself and to write His law on our hearts, giving us consciences - all without our first believing.

I consider the fact that God does not condemn men for what they cannot help, but for rejecting Him & His revelation of Himself to be an act of grace. We deserve nothing, but even those who God knows in advance will hate him still are given a conscience and knowledge of God - BEFORE it reaches a point where God abandons them.

There’s so much wrong in that post I’m not even going to attempt to cover it all. Anyone else is welcome. The whole thing is so unscriptural it’s amazing. Just the statement “I consider” has no scriptural basis and it seems much of your theology is based on that.
