just wondering

I'll just put it like this: we agree on a fundamental level, that is we both believe that God is soveriegn and that he takes an active interest in the affairs of men. Our disagreement is simply over the extent of God's involvement. I am of the opinion that it is less than what you think, and you are of the opinion that it is more than what I think.

Ditto. I think we over-read the bible, over voodoo spiritualize things, and fail to understanding the text the way it was intended.

"God hardened Pharoah's heart" reads to me like a figure of speech, similar to "I made my brother mad".

And yet my interpretation of it is used to make a point in Romans 9. Just saying.

Fair enough. I won't disagree with that.
