Axiom of Knowledge (by axiom is meant necessary starting point, in proverbs we read the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge and in Colossians all of the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are in Christ)

Divine Eternal Logos
I do struggle with the concept that God would seize some sinner who wants nothing to do with Him, and drag that soul kicking and fighting into Heaven to spend eternity with the One whom he loathed while on earth.

God calls, he woos, he beckons and entreats. But we remain always free to walk away from His offer of Salvation. (We must then, however, face the awful consequences of that rejection...)

George Whitefield should give more cause for struggle, just saying..
