Whereas an imbalance on His Sovereignity (the total inability of man and the irresistable grace of God taken to the extreme) can give a very distorted dishonoring protrayal of God
This is the typical ROMAN CATHOLIC and ARMINIAN salvation by WORKS theory.Michael denies that the sinner is dead in sin as the Bible teaches.
"And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins" Eph 2:1
"Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved)" Eph 2:5
"And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;" Col 2:13
Michael also denies that God's grace is irresistible.
Yet Jesus Himself declares.
"All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out." John 6:37
AND
"And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day." John 6:39
AND
"No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day." John 6:44 and 65.
Total Depravity and Irresistible Grace are Bible Facts.
