God's predestination is not based upon irresistible grace okay so irresistible you know irresistible grace is this doctrine by the Calvinist that teaches well because God has elected you or elected the you know the elect he's already chosen you he's selected you you're already saved before the foundation of the world you know the way you come to Christ is that you just have that desire you just have a desire to come to God you just have the desire to seek after God because their theology teaches that there's two segments of the population one part of the population is elect they're born they grow up and eventually they'll come to God why because they desire to come after God they're there you know the grace of God is just irresistible to them okay they're like a glutton walking by the bakery who just did the the scent of that you know that the muffins or whatever whatever it's cookies or brownies or whatever they just can't help it it's just irresistible they can't help but go through that street that block without going in that's how they view God's grace to the ones who are elect the second segment of the population are basically those who are totally depraved okay and they actually refer to them as reprobates so this is why Calvinism is actually so wicked it's wicked because of the fact that they believe that when a person is born and they're not elect they're totally depraved they are reprobate they are beyond the hope of salvation they can't get saved because God has already elected them for eternal damnation that's their lot in life so they they're boring they live they die they go to hell and they have no choice in the matter you said why is that wicked well I'll tell you why that's wicked because that would include babies who've been aborted that would include babies who've been you know women who have miscarriages those those children that would include children just in general who die early according to the Calvinist if they're not elect they go to hell and look folks you when you confront a Calvinist regarding that specific thing there they'll beat around the bush they won't give you a straight answer but that's exactly what they believe if you pin them in the corner and say is this what you believe they'll say well you know God's irresistible grace shut up just tell me is that what you believe or not and you know what that's exactly what they believe so they believe that reprobate that children can become reprobate or they're already born reprobate because they're rejected from the beginning of time from before the beginning of time because they're totally depraved that's a wicked doctrine folks okay God's predestination is not based upon irresistible grace where believers prior to become becoming regenerated you know they can't help but seek after God his predestination is based upon being saved understand so he doesn't choose you for salvation in the sense of you just can't choose whether to be saved or not that's what he wants for you that's what he wants for you he chooses the way of salvation which is to Christ but then you have to choose that salvation and once you're in Christ once you're already saved that he predestines you for heaven he predestines you to have a to live a life of blessings here on this earth he predestines you to inherit all these spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus that's what's predestined okay
