“I was never a hard core apologetic Armininan.”
“As i studied Romans 9-11, in the context of Romans as a whole, and as i looked at various commentaries, both reformed and arminian, my whole theology fell to pieces.
Looking at the text exegetically in it’s context i could no longer hold onto what i thought predestination was. As such i began researching reformed theology and thus my whole doctrinal position shifted.”

Mark,

Surmising from what you wrote here, while it appears that you perhaps you were a non-calvinst, but it’s also plain that you were never an Arminian in any solid sense. So that, whatever you “thought predestination was” was not Arminian doctine either.

Again, whatever your “whole doctrinal position” that “shifted” was, it wasn’t actually Arminian and this is why Cheryl (and others here) have to keep explaining the Arminian position.

The simple question I have for you is, ‘why’ would you be trying to refute a position that you obviously don’t know the facts of?
