Free Will or Total Depravity


I am not here to debate, argue, or try to prove a point based on the doctrines of men. If you choose to adhere to Calvinism that is your choice, and if I choose not to that is my choice.
We will all have stand at judgment seat of Christ and we better make sure we are following and abiding in the doctrine of Christ and not the doctrine of men (2 Corinthian 5:10).
EVERYONE IS STILL GIVEN THE CHOICE TO RECEIVE OR REJECT THE LORD DESPITE GOD BEING ALL KNOWING.
HE PREDESTINES US ON THE MERE BASIS OF ALREADY KNOWING WHO IS GOING TO RECEIVE OR REJECT HIM NOT BECAUSE WE HAVE TOTAL DEPRAVITY WITHOUT THE INABILITY TO CHOOSE OR REJECT HIM IN FULL COMPLIANCE WITH HIS MERCY, COMPASSION, AND BEING LONG-SUFFERING DESIRING FOR NO ONE TO PERISH BUT SADLY MANY WILL CHOOSE TO STILL REJECT HIM.
Here are just a few Scriptures that affirms that God desires for no one to perish but sadly many will because they refuse to receive Christ as Savior and Lord. I could post several more.
(John 3:16) For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.
(Rom. 11:32) For God has shut up all in disobedience that He might show mercy to all.
(2 Pet. 3:9) The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.
(1 Tim. 2:3-4) This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
Acts 4:12) “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.”
(1 Timothy 2:5) “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;”
(John 3:36) “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.”
(John 8:24) ” I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.”
(John 10:9) ” I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.”
(John 14:6) “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
(1 Corinthians 3:11) “For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.”
(1 John 5:12) “He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.”
(Revelation 3:20) ” Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.”
(John 1:12) “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:”
