Yes, if you are Calvinist. if you are a moderate Calvinist ala John Piper - faith and obedience work simultaneously. I believe that faith comes by hearing. The capacity to hear is first and hearing is the result and our choosing to believe ensues. Faith comes by obedience to what we hear.The capacity to hear is the gift of God and not faith as the Calvinist insist

You obey because you have faith. Obedience is the result of faith. The fruit of faith. We love because he first loved us. 1 John 4:19

Brief yet concise analysis of the Calvinistic view. You are regenerated that you might have faith and repent. Nonsense

I don't think a born again person can persist in unbelief (covenant disobedience).Faith is a way of life. How does a righteous man live?Gal 3:11...The righteous man shall live by faith.
