God is in control of everything; He can even choose to control Himself. Thank goodness for that, or all everything sinful could be destroyed this second. Calvinists might say there are no lost causes, but in the words of one non-Calvinist, named Jonah, "Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the grace that could be theirs." (Jonah 2:8) There has to be something they forfeited.
Mungu ana mamlaka juu ya vitu vyote; anaweza kuamua hata kujidhibiti Yeye mwenyewe. Hili ni jambo la kushukuru, kwani isingekuwa hivyo mambo yenye dhambi yangeangamizwa mara moja. Wakalvinisti wanaweza kusema kuwa hakuna mambo aliyoyafanya Mungu ambayo hayakufanikiwa, lakini kwa mujibu wa mtu asiyekuwa Wakalvinisti aitwaye Yona, "Watu waangaliao mambo ya ubatili na uongo hujitenga na rehema zao wenyewe." (Yon 2:8). Ni lazima kuna kitu kilichipotezwa hapa.
