Example #11 - Judas and the Murder of Christ
If the very faith to be saved is "not of yourselves: it is the gift of God"; if "ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you" (Joh 15:16); if God simply has "mercy on whom HE will have mercy" (Rom 9:18) and if He truly "works all things after the counsel... [read more]
