I once asked a Calvinist friend of mine, "Would you say that my 'sin' is an act, ordained of God, for which He will hold me accountable"?
His response was, "yes".![]()
If all my choices are predetermined, then they are not really mine, they are God's. I suppose He can, by His own sovereign right, hold me accountable, but really He is just passing judgment on His own divine fiat.
