What about someone who believes that justification comes through the exercise of free will to accept Christ's offer of salvation? Can that person be saved?
Must someone know exactly how they are saved in order to be saved?
No consistent and TRUE arminian can ever be saved. All arminians I have met who demonstrated thru their lives that that they were born again, inconsistently believed that Salvation is 100% of God, but yet a sinner has free will. These kind of arminians are as Martyn Lloyd Jones put it very well, right in their hearts but wrong in their heads. Sadly these kinds of arminians are a minority in Arminian Churches.
