I quite honestly don’t remember… I remember doing a lot of personal research and debate on the subject back inundergrad, but I’m unsure what finally convinced me. Currently what I find the strongest argument, though, is that I am more able to trust in God than in myself; I can’t hope in my own will for my perseverance.
I had never really explored calvinism seriously until college. At that point I was like a 3 point calvinist.
Then eventually 4. Then eventually reading the Bible and listening to how John Piper described limited atonement won me over. I was also attending a calvinist church at the time… So I’m sure that helped a good bit.
