Author	Thread: Monergism, Synergism and James.
Admin	Monergism, Synergism and James. Posted : 8 Jun, 2011 08:42 PM James Posted: Monergism means God alone saves. Synergism means God and The man work together and the man is partially responsible for saving Himself. ---------------- Yes God alone saves, no one disputes that except the fantasy people you create. Synergism: the working together of two things to produce a sum greater than the total of their individual effects. This is what the Gospel IS! ...About God and man, if it was only about God we wouldn't exist to be having this conversation. The question would be : If it is Monergism then God could snap His fingers and save the elect? And if it is Synergism would it be more of a process ? Look around, which is reality? Which begs the bigger question: If God has free will, are we created in His image? Post Reply

View Profile History	Monergism, Synergism and James. Posted : 8 Jun, 2011 08:58 PM Good post, Two. When I saw James use the term "synergist" today, I could only think of muscles and drugs. :laugh: But then when I first saw TULIP in one of his posts, I only thought of the flower. :goofball: Interesting how Reformed Theology takes certain words with certain meanings and applies them in ways not normally known. Anyway, I'll be interested to see what James pops up with in this thread. Post Reply

Then the real Jesus has never changed and if you wanna know him you can, unless of course if you are of another doctrine and you can help the lord get it write because somehow, some think he does not what it takes to be born again.
