yup, that's called rebellion...the nation of Israel repeatedly resisted the drawing of God. a true dyed in the wool Calvanist doesn't embrace free will, but rather "irresistible grace" which is a fancy word for "god will get u if he really wants to"...

This is really a different topic than the opener... but, Hey! Who cares, right?

staysharp, if God really "wanted to get you" - do you think you would be able to resist?

He is God, after all. He does do "all things after the counsel of His will." If He "wants" you - you're gonna be His.
