Irresistible Grace

Elevating man over God

That's what these guys thought:

Acts 7:51 (KJV) Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye.

But you de-elevate God to having no other existing choice than to unilaterally actuate us. Like we are not arguing with each other but God is pretending we do.
 
God's power is irresistable in and itself but that doesn't mean God didn't prefer libertarian free will.

Many did resist God.

Acts 7:51 (KJV) Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye.
spot on brother
 
That's what these guys thought:
They did what they suppose to do, thats what the unregenerate void of Grace do always. Man by nature is enmity against God Rom 8:7-8

7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
Stephen called them unregenerate and stiff necked and uncircumcised in ears and heart, thats unregenrate and dead in sin Acts 7

51 ;Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye.

Thats why it takes Grace to save.

They were resisting grace. Thus grace is not irresistable.

Acts 7:51 (KJV) Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye.
