WHAT PRAYER DO YOU PREFER?
PRAYER NO.1:
"Lord, break through his hard heart!
Bring him to yourself, Father!
Could it be, O Hound of Heaven, that he receives no rest until your Spirit brings him into the kingdom!
Show him the light and life of our Lord Jesus Christ and never let him go! Amen!"
PRAYER NO.2:
"Present yourself to him, Father, in such a convincing way that his natural inclination to love You would stir him to choose the salvation that is to be found in Christ Jesus...
...but not so much that, you know, you're doing it against his will. Just woo him a bit, you know, how You do that thing you do. Amen."

Prayer No.1 is a Calvinist prayer...
Prayer No.2 is an Arminian prayer...
What kind of prayer do you pray???
J.I. Packer once said, "Calvinists should therefore approach professed Arminians as brother evangelicals trapped in weakening theological mistakes, and seek to help them to a better mind."
