No person can come to Christ by their own freewill !

You ignored the point

No I haven't

 

[brightfame52]

Then show me where it says that Christ only died for the "elect". You have never posted that particular verse. Show it to us.

There's no scripture that specifically says Christ died for the elect and it is not a scripture that says specifically He died for all humanity without expectation.

 

[brightfame52]

God sets the conditions such as belief. You want to take that up with God? I highly advise you don't.

Christ met all the conditions God required to save His Elect. If you don't believe that, you don't understand what Christ accomplished, and you should take that up with God

No I haven't

Yes, you have.

Prohibited by scripture

Regeneration is the impartation of spiritual life

But those who do not believe will not see life

John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

John 3:18 The one who believes in him is not judged, but the one who does not believe has already been judged, because he has not believed in the name of the one and only Son of God.

Mark 16:16 The one who believes and is baptized will be saved, but the one who refuses to believe will be condemned.

John 8:24 Thus I said to you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.”

1 John 5:10–13 (The one who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. The one who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has testified concerning his Son.) And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. The one who has the Son has the life; the one who does not have the Son of God does not have the life. These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, in order that you may know that you have eternal life.

So scripture refutes Calvinism’s belief that unbelievers may be given life so that they may believe

 

[TomL]

Taken to extreme means that man is taken totally out of the picture. That perfectly describes calvinism.

No Sola fide does not take man out of the picture.

And protestant non Calvinists hold to free will not geared toward Calvinist determinism and will affirm faith is their input.
