VII.58. PREDESTINATION AND REPROBATION
Summary
1. Predestination is double; it has two sides to it.
2. Some teach that God is equally responsible for election and reprobation. This is characteristic of hyper-Calvinism.
3. The Reformed view of double predestination reflects a positive- negative schema.
4. God passively, not actively, hardened Pharaoh’s heart.
5. God hated Esau in the sense of failing to give him a blessing of grace or in the sense of abhorring him as a vessel fit for destruction.
