To create mankind |
To elect some to eternal life and the rest to eternal separation | To permit the fall of man | To permit the fall of man - physical and moral deterioration | Gift of free will whereby each may do all that is required of him |
To permit the fall of man | To elect some to eternal life, leaving the rest to their just deserts | The atonement of Christ - where all men are made savable, with salvation conditioned on individual faith. | The atonement of Christ - where satisfaction is made for all men and all are given sufficient grace to believe, if they will | The atonement of Christ - to make possible the gift of sufficient grace and give this grace to all | Gift of the law and gospel to illuminate the way and persuade men to walk in it. |
The atonement of Christ - where satisfaction is made for the elect thus securing their redemption | To elect some to receive moral ability and the necessary grace to believe | To predestine to eternal life those whom He foresaw would believe of their own free will | Salvation of all who freely cooperate with this grace | Gift of Christ to (expiate past sin and) set a good example |
The gift of the Holy Spirit to regenerate and sanctify the redeemed | The gift of the Holy Spirit to sanctify believers | Sanctification of all who cooperate with the sufficient grace | Sanctification by cooperation with God's grace | Acceptance of all who walk in the right way |
