A person's own physical hearing of the Gospel can't save him, because they that are in the flesh cannot please God Rom. 8:8.
And the only Believing / Faith that pleases God is given to all His Elect Eph. 1:4 when they are Born of the Spirit, New Birth Gal. 5:22!
You quote scripture all the time but have not been given understanding of it Eph. 4:18.
Acts 10:34-35
34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
These verses simply mean that God shows no special favor to any nation by ethnicity, but shows Mercy exclusively to the Spiritual Seed of Abraham, the Seed of Christ Gal. 3:16, 29; Rom. 9:23 from all nations of the world Rev. 5:9.

Why if already determined is He praying for them?
And after He prays for those disciples He prays also for those who will believe through what they disciples teach.
“I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word..."
Why?

Because as Great High Priest of His Church Heb. 7:24, all those Elect in Him from the foundation Eph. 1:4, He intercedes for them as their Covenant Head, Surety and Mediator Heb. 7:22; 8:6 from Everlasting.
Heb. 7:25
Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
Rom. 8:33-34
33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.
34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
If already saved why this office of high priesthood intercessory mediation...it's a forgone conclusion...duh they be saved wanting it or not...
Calvinist try to mix Calvinism with Christian doctrine. It doesn't mix very well.
There are bunches of scriptures that tell us that if we want to be saved we will have to come to Christ. Everyone in the New Testament that was saved, were saved because the came to Christ as repentant sinners.

Christ in His Priesthood for His Church, fulfilled all the conditions for them, nothing for them to do or perform. And His Intercession for them ensures that all Promised Blessings are Spiritually applied to everyone of them.
Heb. 8:10-12
10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
If you have been declared by God to be saved from the foundation of the world, then you don't need Christ, nor do you need Christianity.
You try to mix Calvinism with Christianity. It doesn't mix.

You don't believe in the True God or His Words.
That's evidence of your being condemned already John 3:18, 36.

I am still waiting for your proof that Calvinists teach this. Where is it?
You, like Nanja, have a lot of trouble with the scriptures.
Your Calvinist doctrine is in conflict with God's word, so what do you do? You change God's word.
"I will put" or they are already put always been put...
Why will put if they are already determined saved?
Not only are they already always chosen but since they are already chosen and saved why do they Need the law?....grace yes? no law right?

More false witness, nothing new there, still waiting.
If God has declared from the foundation of the world that you are saved, then you don't need anything. Calvinism is a Christless religion.

I didn't ask for your opinion, I asked about four or five times now for you to post your proof that Calvinism teaches that the Gospel and justification by faith are not necessary.
How many times do I have to say it?
If you have been declared by God that you are saved, you don't need anything. You don't need faith. You don't need Christ. You don't need justification.

So now you consider yourself a Calvinist teacher? What an about face! May I ask who taught you?
The Calvinist doctrine that God predestinates people to salvation before the foundation of the world, refutes its self and eliminates Christianity. Anyone with half a brain can figure that out.
