John?

Where did you hear this? Please provide some sort of citation for this. I consider it utter nonsense. He was confessional and all of the confessions affirm that regeneration precedes faith. So, I want to know just who is telling you this. Are you on some group or forum, or is it your church that is teaching this? We have lots of articles by Spurgeon you could look at and gain proof of this. Further, I would say that only a consistent (true) Calvinist will always affirm that regeneration precedes faith. After all John, there is no life in a cemetery and since all of mankind are dead in their sin, there is no chance of them having faith apart from regeneration. 1John 1:10
