In fact my post was so long because I did address the alternative to the inclination perspective of free will and explained it's fault. :think: Did I take you to task? I explained why I believed your position does not make sense and why. If you believe I was merely shooting you a simple question about a Reformed perspective then you don't know me very well: I would never waste your time with such a simple question, I respect you far too much. I have dug quite a bit for an answer to my question on the web and in your own writings and could not find one, which is why I finally asked you...
I realize you see this sort of thing often as a Calvinist, which is exactly why I was so wary to ask you and tried to find the answer elsewhere beforehand :idunno:
