Romans922
Puritan Board Professor
We would all agree that Unbelievers are Totally Depraved, but what about Believers?
For God's people they are able to seek God, do righteous acts, cry out "Abba", strive after godliness, make our calling/election sure, and also God's people have eternal life right now, as well as the have the fruit of the Spirit now.
Yet I often hear Christian Calvinists claiming that God's people are totally depraved like unbelievers. That the only difference between a Christian and non-Christian is their standing before God in Christ, but the depth of their sin and the extent of their sin is just the same.
So what say you? [Posted to generate a good conversation and hopefully clarify for some who may be confused.]
