Calvinists insist that the sole cause of regeneration or being born again is the will of God. God first sovereignly and efficaciously regenerates, and only in consequence of that do we act. Therefore, the individual is passive in regeneration, neither preparing himself nor making himself receptive to what God will do. Regeneration is a change wrought in us by God, not an autonomous act performed by us for ourselves. Man’s status in regard to regeneration is that of a recipient, not a contributor. Man is spiritually, in relation to regeneration, what Lazarus was physically, in relation to resurrection: dead, passive, unable to do anything at all, wholly subject to the will of Him who gives life and breath to whomever He desires.

Dear Hope Chest readers,
 
It's time for Gwen's Write On! classes again, and she's offering a $10 discount to Hope Chest readers.  My oldest daughter, Mary, took this class a few years ago, and it really helped her become an excellent writer!  
 
Blessings,
Virginia
 
Do you need a writing course for your kids?  Gwen Simmons is now taking enrollment for the next session of WRITE ON! and WRITE ON AGAIN! creative writing courses.  WRITE ON! is a course created by a home school mom for home school students.  The relaxed approach of this course, which uses the student's own hobbies and interests as a base, sparks enthusiasm in the reluctant writer and brings fresh challenges to the student who already likes to write.  Writing is simply "talking on paper."  If you can talk, you can write.  Let WRITE ON! show you how!  Visit http://www.writeonagain.com for course description, testimonials, sample lessons, cost, and enrollment form.  Gwen is offering HOPE CHEST subscribers a $10 discount from the regular price if enrolled by DECEMBER 10.   For more information, email Gwen at [email protected]
