So, you teach that you’re condemned by the sins Adam committed, no matter what, right?

Unless you are born lucky of course.

Are there any Calvinists who weren’t born lucky?

“Unless you are born lucky of course.”


That’s a pretty perverse way of describing the unmerited love of God. Does God have the right to have “mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth” or not? (Rom 9:18) Does God have the right to select for Himself His own peculiar people, as he has done since the days of Abraham, leaving out the Gentiles for centuries, and at that, leaving out Esau who had been the seed of Abraham before either he or his chosen brother had “done good or evil”?

No how, in his reply, he didn't actually answer you.

It's one of their favorite tactics.
