God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
There are several problems with the Arminian view:
1. The doctrine of prevenient grace, on which the Arminian view of conditional election is based, is not found in Scripture.
2. Note well that there is no reference in [Romans 8:29] to faith or free will as that which God allegedly foresees in men. It is not what He foreknows but whom.
3. [Arminianism] assumes that fallen men are able and willing to believe in Christ apart from the regenerating grace of God, a notion that Paul has denied in Rom. 3:10-18.
4. Would not this view give man something of which he may boast? Those who embrace the gospel would be deserving of some credit for finding within themselves what others do not.
5. This view suspends the work of God on the will of man. It undermines the emphasis in Romans 8:28-38 on the sovereign and free work of God who foreknows, predestines, calls, justifies, and glorifies. It is God who is responsible for salvation, from beginning to end.
6. Even if one grants that God elects based on His foreknowledge of man’s faith, nothing is proven. For God foreknows everything. One must determine from Scripture how man came by the faith that God foreknows. And the witness of Scripture is that saving faith is a gift of God (Eph. 2:8-10; Phil. 1:29; 2 Pet. 1:1; 2 Tim. 2:24-26; Acts 5:31; 11:18).

In answer to the recent request for scones, I dug some up from: Hamlyn All
Colour Cakes and Baking cookbook. It is an honest-to-goodness British
cookbook.
Fruit scones are my favorite, so I'll write the recipe for them first.
Because this is a British cookbook, the measurements may look a little
different than you're used to. In these recipes, I assume that caster
sugar is roughly equivalent to the American granulated sugar. Next we have
Drop Scones. These are * a lot * like pancakes.
Sift the dry ingredients together into a mixing bowl and make a well in the
center. Add the egg and half the milk and mix to a smooth batter.
Gradually beat in the remaining milk with the oil.
Heat a heavy frying pan or griddle and grease lightly. Drop tablespoons of
the batter onto the hot surface and cook until the top is blistered. Turn
with a spatula and cook until the underside is golden brown. Serve with
butter.
Tip: Keep the scones warm for serving by wrapping in a clean folded tea
towel--this way they will keep moist and warm until they are all cooked.
