***when the Arminians have given a like response for ""Why does one choose and another does not?"we've been told the answer is insufficient"***
There is one subtle difference on that Corin, I'm quoting scripture, the Arminians aren't. The answer to the question why do some choose and others don't is clearly presented over and over again in Scripture. It is not a mystery.
And that's the truth.

You're quoting Scripture as interpreted by the Calvinists. And that is the way you understand it.
Yet there have been centuries of disagreements over those interpretations. You know that.
So, once again, as I have often argued, it comes down to man's fallible interpretations of God's infallible Scriptures.
You see it one way. We see it another.
You think you're right. We think we're right.
I'm comfortable with the realization that it is indeed a mystery that we will not ~solve~ here on FreeRepublic any more than it has been ~solved~ in centuries of debate.
