Sandbagging Theology

You're statement (on your profile) has three alones none explaining your answer. Grace (You're saved by God's grace which begs the question put forward); Christ (by christ redemptive work which doesn't answer the question); faith (throughour faith in Christ which doesn't answer the question).

Starting from the begining. God elected those that are saved. There is distinguishing one group of people from another. That to distinguish such necissarily condemns one set. Before they are even born. From what we understand of justice is that right? You could say God is the creator and can do what he wants which just means that he is an unfair tyrant picking out the "teachers' pets" and torturing the rest of humanity. Does man truely have a free will? Then and is God not ultimately responsible for his choices not ours? And doesn't this conflict with the verse which states that God desires that all men be saved? (again this isn't my personal believe but my attempt to attack the question from a coworkers perspective.)

 

There is a lot of reading there. Do you think my co-worker is up to it? I'll read it though and it may be a while before I get back to you.
