And probably the only true way to love God is by loving others.
Forgive me for not understanding you on predestination and original sin but i really do want to, not that i will agree with you but i would like to at least understand where you are coming from. Could you go to the story of Adam and Eve and explain to me how you understand it in terms that a child could comprehend? I have read R C Sprouls book, Chosen by God, at least three times and I just can not grasp it. THANKS
