Arminian perspective on Gods Sovereignty and mans free will

[praise_yeshua]

Well yes, one must believe the gospel, but even more, we must obey the gospel. There are far too many who refuse to even consider what it means to obey the gospel and think that doing anything to be saved is a work-salvation based gospel. That is just not true.

Believing the Gospel demands allegiance to God.

ditto a call to be a follower of Christ, a disciple- counting the cost.

Yes I believe they are 2 side of the same coin. We are Gods workmanship created in Christ Jesus to do good works which God has prepared beforehand that we should walk in them ( Eph 2:10). James declares faith without works is a dead faith and Jesus taught believers will bear much fruit proving to be His disciples.

hope this helps !!!

It is "equal outcome" to him. Only those who believe the Gospel are saved. He isn't expressing the entirety of what He believes. He still believes that not just anyone can believe the Gospel. He still believes in regeneration before a man can believe the Gospel.

It is a endless circle for them.

Not everyone can believe the gospel, especially those who never hear it.

One can believe the gospel and yet not obey it. Both Paul (2 Thess 1:8) and Peter (1 Pet 4:17) warn against the failure to obey the gospel of God.
