  • I’m confused by your answer - you said “choice” does not enter into the monergist camp, but my question is specifically addressed to those who believe that we can (read: have the choice) reject God’s grace. So in some sense choice must enter the equation right? I’m also slightly annoyed because this answer consists of 90% quotation, quotation which is lengthy and is not elaborated on, only alluded to. Some brief summarization of the quote would be helpful along with some elucidation relating to the question I just asked.

  • @LukeHill Sorry to be unclear. I will summarize tomorrow as I have to shut down now.

  • I think the summary clarifies the matter (which is crucial) that justification is through the faith which is Jesus Christ's faith coming first and only thereafter does the faith of the believer respond to that first faith. Up-voted +1.

  • @Anne no pressure, just still curious to hear clarification if you can offer it.

  • @NigelJ Christ’s faith proceeding the response of the believer is perfectly compatible with synergism as well, I don’t know how that is a helpful distinction.
