Some thoughts on Siouxland Presbytery’s document: Part 5-Effectual Calling

Posted here:

1. We affirm that all those whom God has predestined unto life, and those only, He calls effectually out of the state of sin and death unto grace and salvation by Jesus Christ (C 10.1).
2. a. We affirm that the reprobate may experience some common operations of the Spirit with the elect (C 10.4).
2. b. We deny that these common operations cause the reprobate, even those reprobate who are baptized, to truly come to Christ, be saved, effectually called, justified, adopted, or sanctified.

Yes. Fine. Great. Uncontroversial because tautological.
