The Calvinists eisegesis of John 6:55

No one says we do make a choice.
In your system of thought, which choice comes first, God’s predetermining choice or our choice?

Are you free to act outside the sovereignty of God?
If God’s sovereignty allows it, yes! God created us in his image and after his likeness. Part of that image is sovereignty itself. God gave man the sovereignty of free will choice, just as God can freely choose to do as he pleases.

God withholds his right to interfere with man’s decisions, thus allowing man to go against God’s wishes, as man chooses of his own accord and desire.



If your once save always saved, are you free to walk away?
I am a Wesleyan in my theological perspective, and thus do not hold to OSAS or ES, so yes, I am free to walk away. Thus, the various and frequent calls in scripture to persevere in our faith in spite of our trials and tribulations encountered in our journey.
