  • @HisFatherlyHand If you would like to respond to anything I have said, then please do so.  But do not attempt to tell me that Piper did an adequate job of answering the question. He most certainly did not. Not only this, but a "paradox" implies that an argument, while reasonable, *sounds* senseless.

    Of course, God's precepts vs. His decrees *sound* senseless to the NATURAL MAN, but, indeed, are not (as I have already proven). Any questions?

  • @R1K2G3 Look up the definition of a paradox, because Piper would agree with you. "Paradox" is not the same term as "contradiction."

  • The "paradox" of "calling people to repent of their sin, and yet it is God [alone] who must grant them this gift": 1) There IS NO PARADOX! Imperatives (what men 'ought to do') in NO WAY imply man's ability to do what is commanded...plain and simple. Commands never imply man's ability to obey. 2) the term "responsibility" NEVER has "free will", or, "ability" as its prerequisite! The only prerequisite for responsibility is LAWGIVER and His LAW!

    Dr. Piper should know better.
