It would be an easy matter for God to allow everyone to believe


[/ QUOTE ]

God is not the cause of your unbelief.

[/ QUOTE ]

God is THE Ultimate Cause. All causes are under God's cause. As a Calvinist, you should know this.

As a former Calvinist you should know the answer to this. That God is the sine qua non because without His creation there would be no creatures to sin does not relieve the creature of responsibility. God is not the proximate cause of your unbelief, nor is He responsible for it.

[/ QUOTE ]

I didn't say he was the proximate cause (we have free will), or tha He is responsible (he made us responsible by giving us free will). However, he is still the Ultimate cause. The Prime Causer.

The fact is, Calvinist doctrine states that nobody can choose to believe except that God chooses to supply his irresestible Grace to them.

So, summary: God created man, gave him free will, man sinned & can no longer love/believe in God, until God chooses to save man. So, is God the "cause" of someone's unbelief... Primarily, yes, secondarily, no, finally, yes.
