See #50. By the way, ftD --- Does God have the perogative as the self-proclaimed, "master potter", to make out of the same lump of clay (all of mankind) some pottery for noble purposes, and some for common use as he says in Romans 9:21? Or do you think he doesn't claim that perogative over all peoples?

The fact is that Scripture points to a God that wants to share His love and happiness with men, not send them to a eternal, burning lake of fire (1Tim2:4)

Yes, if God were Satan He could think like a Calvinist, but since He isn't, He doesn't!

"The fact is that Scripture points to a God that wants to share His love and happiness with men, not send them to a eternal, burning lake of fire (1Tim2:4)"

Getting back to the subject:

Does God have the perogative as the self-proclaimed, "master potter", to make out of the same lump of clay (all of mankind) some individuals for noble purposes, and some for common use as he says in Romans 9:21? Or do you think he doesn't claim that perogative over all peoples?
