R.C. Sproul’s Obfuscation of Double Predestination | Religio-Political Talk (RPT) - go.shr.lc/4ebmBGo R.C. Sproul’s Statement on Predestination (from Chosen by God): ✦ “What predestination means, in its most elementary form, is that our final destination, heaven or hell, is decided by God not only before we get there, but before we are even born. It teaches that our ultimate destiny is in the hands of God. Another way of saying it is this: From all eternity, before we ever live, God decided to save some members of the human race and to let the rest of the human race perish. God made a choice–he chose some individuals to be saved unto everlasting blessedness in heaven and others he chose to pass over, to allow them to follow the consequences of their sins into eternal torment in hell.” (Chosen By God, p.22, emphasis mine) This is double predestination in practice, even if Sproul calls the active-positive version for reprobation a caricature. ■ If the elect cannot fail to be saved, ■ and the reprobate cannot be saved because God withholds the only grace capable of producing faith, ■ then what practical difference remains between active reprobation and passive reprobation? Exhaustive Determinism: Sproul affirms that God ordains whatsoever comes to pass (echoing Westminster): [....]

"I think it is in the highest degree probable that, with regard to these Territories of NE & KS, there will never be any slaves in them. I have no more idea of seeing a slave population in either ot them than I have in seeing it in MA; not a whit. It is possible some gentleman may go there and take a few domestic servants with them, and I would say that if those domestic servants were faithful and good ones, and the masters did not take them with them, the masters would deserve the reprobation of all good men. What would you have them do? Would you have me to take the servants who wait upon me, and live with me, and to whom I have as strong attachments as to any human beings on this earth out of my own immediate relatives and connexions, and because I want to move to Kansas, put them in the slave market and sell them? Sir, I would suffer my right arm to be cut off before I would do it." -Judge Badger (Whig-NC 2/16/1854) (He will oppose secession until Lincoln resorts to coercion. His speech shows he had no desire to make a slave empire and saw entry into the territories as a legal right. Southerners with slaves were barred unless they would destroy slave families.)
