Is that a straw man? Maybe. If you are actually a monergist but think you're a synergist, that might explain your difficulties. | |
| Jun 21 at 20:32 | comment | added | Luke Hill | This is a somewhat helpful answer in distinguishing Catholics and Lutherans, but I’m not sure that it helps solve the dilemma. If we just define synergism as “human beings cooperate with God towards their salvation, even though God freely chooses to initiate the process of salvation”, then Lutherans must bend over backwards in redefining cooperation such that it excludes passively allowing God to work on us. Of course, as I pointing out earlier, this might have unintended consequences in our discussion of the nature of sin. | |

remove JDDS as it's mostly a red herring (see https://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/65833328#65833328)
