I have all my faith in a Jewish Carpenter.

and yet, technically, since Calvinism does not believe in free-will and that everything is predestined, shouldn't it technically read that you were predestined to have this pre-programmed faith in a Jewish Carpenter? Or, if later you change, then you were pre-destined and pre-programmed to do so?

Unfortunately to fully comprehend Calvinism, you need a stiff drink or two.
