16 Don’t you realize that grace frees you to choose your own master? But choose carefully, for you surrender yourself to become a servant—bound to the one you choose to obey. If you choose to love sin, it will become your master, and it will own you and reward you with death. But if you choose to love and obey God, he will lead you into perfect righteousness. Romans 6:16 TPT
The TPT is not a real translation. Brian Simmons has no training as a translator. It is written for the NAR movement. I wouldn't use it for any serious study

Still waiting for you to show a scripture that teaches us their is a “gift” of obedience.
Why are you insulting me?
Just provide a scripture that says we are given some gift from God that is called obedience.
If you can’t, then you need to repent of promoting an unbiblical doctrine of deception.

No scripture here about a gift of obedience, just more insults.
I’m beginning to believe you are promoting a doctrine of your fantasy.
Peter warned us about people like you.
as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures. 2 Peter 3:16

That is simply not the truth. No matter what you think of Arminius, you have a duty to tell the truth.
So why don't you quote the Five Articles of the Remonstrants and show us exactly what is heresy, quoting the appropriate Scriptures to prove your point.
As I said earlier, Calvinists lie a lot about what Arminians teach, so let's see some truth for a change. And I am not an Arminian, as I have already mentioned. I believe in and present Bible truth.

You do reject the true Gospel, you use it like a smorgasbord; you put on your plate what you like, and reject what you dislike. Yours is a truncated gospel.
What I gather from reading your errant posts is you don't know how to use Scripture properly and tie it all together. That, and you hasve no evidence of eisegesis because there is none.
Of course most of us already know this to be the case concerning you as your track record is well known.
There is no eisegesis, nor did I ignore what is there. Stop bearing false witness and try implementing 2 Timothy 2:15 for once instead of your Finneyism?
Carry on, and get in your last word, there is no need for me to engage with a person who refuses to see what Scripture plainly teaches. It's remarkable to witness you and others outright reject what God has revealed in his word.

I can see you don't know your Bible at all so let me give you the ABC baby steps. The gift of salvation is a complete package deal, that God ONLY gives to His elect. One of the components in that package is the gift of obedience.
You will never obey God while you remain dead in trespasses and sins, God must first give you the gift of salvation which brings you to life so you can begin to obey all the necessary things to effect your salvation
