I don't recall saying that. I've been saying things like we can't save ourselves only God's grace can do that. Is that clearer? God gave us free will. So we make choices all the time. The most critical choice, IMO, is whether or not to accept that we cannot obtain our own salvation. E.g. we can't work it off, we can't buy it off, we can't "intellectualize" it, etc. We have to accept God's grace, personally. So I don't deny God's Omnipotence, but I do think He uses it where He wants. So maybe He will bring all souls to Him in the end, I don't know. All I know is His words while He was here on Earth say that is not how it's going to be. -Charlie _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
