Praying for Salvation – Michael Horton addresses Roger Olson on whether or not Christians should pray that God will save their loved ones. “Arminians shouldn’t pray for God to save their loved ones, because God could reply, ‘Look, I’ve done my part; now the ball is in your court.’ Yet, I note, Arminians are typically no less zealous in praying for the salvation of the lost than Calvinists. We’re at one on our knees.”

Christ is the cause of the greatest division, but he is also the medium of the greatest union.

—C.H. Spurgeon
