I am Happily Married for 2 years now!<br /> <br /> Total Depravity<br /> Since the fall of Adam all men are born in sin with Adam's sin nature. There is no part of man's nature that was not affected by sin. Man is totally depraved, and unable to change his inherit sin nature. However total depravity does not mean total inability and nowhere in the bible does it state or point to such a fact man still maintains free choice. Man can choose the gift of salvation.<br /> The basis for mans responsibility is man being able by having the ability to do so. Man cannot save himself and there is no conditions for Gods giving, there is a condition for receiving that being faith.<br /> <br /> <br /> Unconditional Election <br /> is affirmed Election is unconditional from the vantage point of the Giver, but there is one condition for the receiver. Faith is the condition for receiving salvation. foreknowledge in 1 Peter 1:2. Election is according to God's foreknowledge.<br /> <br /> LIMITED ATONEMENT<br /> John Calvin said,"Christ suffered for the sins of the whole world, and in the goodness of God is offered unto all men without distinction, His blood being shed not for part of the world only, but for the whole human race". God sent the Son into the world that the world through Him might be saved. That's why Jesus is referred to as the Savior of the world. In dying for the whole world, Christ tasted death for every man Hebrews. Jesus is truly the Savior of all men. Atonement is unlimited in aspect that the offer of salvation is for all men. Atonement is limited in effect in that only the regenerate.<br /> <br /> Irresistible Grace <br /> saving faith is the God-ordained means for regeneration, and not the result of regeneration. Regeneration or the new birth takes place at the moment a person trusts in Christ and not before they trust in Christ. The scriptural order is first faith and then life. Putting regeneration before faith is putting the cart before the horse. God's Word consistently conditions justification and or eternal life on faith, not the other way around.In short it is possible for someone to deny salvation.<br /> <br /> Perseverance of the Saints <br /> I like to look at it preservation of the saints The Biblical doctrine of Eternal Security teaches that the believer will be preserved by the grace of God. No saint will ever be lost even if they die in a sinful state. The believer is eternally secure. One can have assurance in his salvation.Salvation is Gods work not man he seals our salvation Jude 24 say's he keeps us from stumbling no one can separate us from the love of God.
