    My Views on Calvinism and Arminianism (From a 'Neitherist.')

    This is not meant to be a point of debate. I am just putting forth a hypothesis. This is not the Word of God. I am neither a Calvinist nor an Arminian, but embrace both soteriological standpoints in a paradoxical way. The Bible teaches both, I believe. I was wondering... since God is beyond...
