In reply to:
[color:"blue"]I would say you were just misled by Satan.

Although it is true that Satan is the great "Deceiver", in such matters it is doubtful that he or any of his minions have to do much deceiving to convince someone that Arminianism is taught in Scripture. The depth of depravity that permeates a man's mind and heart is incomprehensible. Thus semi-Pelagianism/Arminianism is what would naturally attract men. For it caters to the desire of all men to be autonomous to one degree or another and to usurp the right of the Sovereign Creator and Ruler of the universe. Arminianism allocates a certain percentage of sovereignty to God with the greater portion going to oneself. Further, even this "allowance" of God's sovereignty is limited to power and not to His divine authority. Thus, at the end of the day, man determines his own fate through the exercising of his alleged "free-will" and allows God to save him.

In the beginning, God created man in His own image. And every since that day, man has been trying to return the favor.
In His Grace,
