“Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.”
One of you will say to me: 'Then why does God still blame us? For who is able to resist his will?' — The objection: if hardening is divine action, how can blame attach to the hardened? And if God wills all things, who ἀντιστήκω (antistēkō, "resist") his will? The question presses the tension between divine sovereignty and human accountability.
