The problem I have with your theology and the thing which drove me to search the Scriptures for greater answers, can be demonstrated in the egocentrism of your following statements: "He died to make [my salvation] possible and I took advantage of that possibility.  I turned from my sin, to Christ." I say this not to offend you but to point out that humanity has but one Savior, Christ Jesus our Lord. Your theology espouses a subtle but nonetheless fallacious form of co-redemption; by that I mean your gospel has at its center two Saviors: Jesus and yourself; for had you not taken advantage of the possibility of salvation offered you, and had you not turned from your sin, you would not have been saved. Am I correct? My friend, that makes you your own savior, along with him who died to make your salvation a contingent possibility. Do you not know in your heart that this is wrong?

Bill, to believe otherwise makes God the co-determiner of those who are lost—since He is control of everything, and our participation is not necessary.  Izzy
