The reprobate are not reprobated becasue of sin, they are reprobated becasue of His will alone. <span style="background-color:#FFFF00">So why does sin have to play a part? </span>

That's terrible thinking Joe.

Quote
. . . the reprobate are always damned to eternal hell in the way of their own sin. It is true that God determined what their final end would be -- and that He did so before they were ever born. --- But the wicked are definitely cast into the torments of hell because of their own evil acts. <span style="background-color:#FFFF00">Never can they point their finger at God, declaring, "God has forced me to do that which was contrary to His will; the fault therefore lies with God and not with me." </span> The wicked reprobate consciously and willingly sin, and for that sin they shall surely be cast into eternal desolation.
