I direct you to Romans 9: 18-22, the Potter has made pots FOR destruction.
We may not always like what the Lord has proclaimed, but who can argue with God? It says what it says. And God even explains why He did this......
And He did so in order that He might make known the riches of His glory upon vessels of mercy, which He prepared beforhand for glory, v23

You can direct me thereif you like but romans 9 is about god choosing Israel. the fatalistic view of Romans 9 is a misdirected consortium of God chosing babies not yet born for hell and other babies not yet born for heaven. When in reality paul is trying to show how God did not make a mistake chosing Israel, he planned it perfectly from the begining, not according to man way, but his way, so no one could say Isreal deserved a thing. But the world would (will according to romans 11) that he is the one true god.
god did not create hell for mankind, he created it for Satan and his angels, but men chose to join satan in that punishent by following him, yet God did not Creat mankind for hell either. He created him for a relationship, man rebelled God did not,

In Christianity the central point is the death ,burial and resurrection.
In Calvinism the central point is Total inability.
Christianity can exist without the Doctrine of ' Total inability ' , because its not the central point of christianity .
Calvinism cannot exist without the Doctrine of ' Total Inability ' .
This is the issue . This is why ' Total inability ' is the main topic in calvinsm . Everything is tied to it and dependant on it .
Christianity however . The main topic and as it should be, is the death , burial and resurrection.

I like the way you deny biblical concepts carelessly, without even looking in to them
Read Ephesians 3:1-11. Particularly verse 11
Ephesians 3:11. This was in accordance with His Eternal purpose which He carried out in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Unbiblical? Not so.
And did you not see the Omniscience passage in Isaiah 41:21-24? Read it with understanding.

Had this very same conversation with another Brother here a few weeks back. Nothing wrong with agreeing to disagree, but when the insults and childish behavior is displayed for all to see, it must have a negative impact on any seeking. Left this site myself for a few years because of it, and folk may not realize, but for some, this is the only fellowship they have. It is a real shame that this same horse has been beaten for months now, and so many threads about it. And not one single mind has been changed 
. Not to mention those booted because of their passion. Jesus can not be pleased. As said in another post, had to hit my knees and ask God to forgive me for some of my replies and comments, because they were not with love nor edification. Absolutely refuse to let myself be drawn into that behavior ever again.
God Bless, Brother!!

17¶And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.?
This is not saying everyone hears this Audibly in their ears . its a declaration of truth .A person reads this and sees the invitation or hears this letter read to them . We only have a verse which says after the cross the Son draws . Never the Father or the Holy Spirit . Its theological systems that say otherwise and some church sermons .

No one is saying God doesn't have eternal purposes . What I'm saying is what God has purposed and that is 1 cor 1.21 and After that Eph 1.13-14 amoung other things . I look for what the bible says He has done ( inductive METHOD)and not use inductive reasoning to declare what God has not said he has done .
Jesus equated “drawing” with hearing and learning from the Father. Yet the Father speaks through His Spirit and He spoke through the Son. You cannot say Father or Jesus is speaking, but the Spirit is not speaking. That’s ludicrous
Jesus is speaking in Rev chapters 2-3, yet He says “ hear what the Spirit is saying to the seven churches”
I can’t believe you’re debating this.
