In this section they affirm semi-Pelagianism/Armininism in denying total depravity by stating that regeneration follows faith and there is an openness to their statement concerning the scope of the atonement: Grace Life ........................................................ We believe that the death of Jesus Christ was the final and complete sacrifice for the sins of humanity. Salvation is obtained by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. All who repent of their sins and receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord are born again to eternal life as children of God. Jeff, Although it could have been stated more precisely, I don't see that quote as denying total depravity by asserting that regeneration follows faith. You may be reading too much into the word 'obtained'. They did use the word, 'receive' in the next sentence. 'born again' does not have to imply that faith precedes regeneration in the sentence. Maybe it does, but it doesn't have to be interpreted that way. Wouldn't we have to marry the two paragraphs along with some others to get a complete picture of their core beliefs.
