Okay, I got a plus rep on the German gals, so let's broaden that out beyond the World Cup.
I, for one, have always been a fan of Miss Universe. Good looking women always bridge the cultural gaps.
I don't even like beer, but did have some really good German beer once.
Forget that restaurant with the crappy chicken and orange hot pants. This is Hooters!

And some famous German women.
I don't care what you say. I was in love with Steffi and her nose.
Marlene Dietrich with a dangling cigarette. This broad kicks ass!
Ursula Andress. Okay, not German, but great in The Blue Max. And James Bond, of course.

So you are not going to answer the question I asked you prior to the witch hunt you are engaging in for deflection?
We will be known forever by the tracks we leave. - Dakota
Go Forward With Courage
When you are in doubt, be still, and wait;
when doubt no longer exists for you, then go forward with courage.
So long as mists envelop you, be still;
be still until the sunlight pours through and dispels the mists
-- as it surely will.
Then act with courage.

The Bible does say that all idol worship is fecal matter and garbage, so I will continue using that terminology when the Bible uses it. And if you step back and look at the insanity of it, you are proposing a worship of dead people who cannot save. How much more complete garbage is that!
Jesus Christ actually saves! God is going to call you to account on the last day, and if you don't have the righteousness of Christ, you will be judged for your sins. Have trust in Christ ALONE, the One who can actually save and present you without spot or blemish before the throne of God.
But all men are commanded to repent and believe the gospel, elect or not.
Acts 17:30
In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent.
hmmm.... that's an interesting question actually.
Why should someone repent and believe the gospel if they are not part of the elect?
- Don't lie.
- Don't cheat.
- Don't steal.
- Don't kill.
- Don't commit adultery.
- Don't covet what your neighbor has, especially his wife.
- Honor your father and mother.
- Remember the Sabbath and keep it Holy.
- Don’t use your Higher Power's name in vain, or anyone else's.
- Do unto others as you would have them do to you.
"For the love of money is the root of all evil..." -- I Timothy 6:10, KJV
Because God commanded them to.
But commands do not imply ability. The command of God is not abrogated because of the inability of the subject to do the command.
But they're already going to hell, right? So what's the downside of disobeying God's command?
Why not just rape and pillage to your heart's content?
- Don't lie.
- Don't cheat.
- Don't steal.
- Don't kill.
- Don't commit adultery.
- Don't covet what your neighbor has, especially his wife.
- Honor your father and mother.
- Remember the Sabbath and keep it Holy.
- Don’t use your Higher Power's name in vain, or anyone else's.
- Do unto others as you would have them do to you.
"For the love of money is the root of all evil..." -- I Timothy 6:10, KJV
Your question assumes that we know who the elect are. No human does, only God does.
But to your question, it's not that the reprobate can go ahead and do whatever they want because they are not saved, but that they will do it because it is in their nature to do it.
So no one knows who the elect are, but we know some are elect and the rest are not. So everybody just jump on board and cross your fingers?
- Don't lie.
- Don't cheat.
- Don't steal.
- Don't kill.
- Don't commit adultery.
- Don't covet what your neighbor has, especially his wife.
- Honor your father and mother.
- Remember the Sabbath and keep it Holy.
- Don’t use your Higher Power's name in vain, or anyone else's.
- Do unto others as you would have them do to you.
"For the love of money is the root of all evil..." -- I Timothy 6:10, KJV
The elect person knows that he is saved, but other than that, no, only God knows who His elect are.
Wait. First, no human knows - only God. Now your saying the elect human knows.
How does the elect human know he is elect?
- Don't lie.
- Don't cheat.
- Don't steal.
- Don't kill.
- Don't commit adultery.
- Don't covet what your neighbor has, especially his wife.
- Honor your father and mother.
- Remember the Sabbath and keep it Holy.
- Don’t use your Higher Power's name in vain, or anyone else's.
- Do unto others as you would have them do to you.
"For the love of money is the root of all evil..." -- I Timothy 6:10, KJV
Because the Holy Spirit gives him that knowledge.
Is everyone who knows they are saved part of the elect?
- Don't lie.
- Don't cheat.
- Don't steal.
- Don't kill.
- Don't commit adultery.
- Don't covet what your neighbor has, especially his wife.
- Honor your father and mother.
- Remember the Sabbath and keep it Holy.
- Don’t use your Higher Power's name in vain, or anyone else's.
- Do unto others as you would have them do to you.

Okay. I'm pretty sure in another thread when someone asked about the Holy Spirit directly speaking to people you said that God only speaks through scripture. Glad the Holy Spirit revealed you that were wrong about that.

The Holy Spirit causes a person to believe the promises of God. The promises of God are found in the Scriptures.Okay. I'm pretty sure in another thread when someone asked about the Holy Spirit directly speaking to people you said that God only speaks through scripture. Glad the Holy Spirit revealed you that were wrong about that.
One of the promises of scripture is that God speaks through more than just scripture.
Psalm 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.

So if a person believes the promises of God, they know the Holy Spirit caused their belief, and thus they know they are part of the elect?
Similarly, if a person believes the Holy Spirit has given him the knowledge that he is saved, can he conclude he is part of the elect?
- Don't lie.
- Don't cheat.
- Don't steal.
- Don't kill.
- Don't commit adultery.
- Don't covet what your neighbor has, especially his wife.
- Honor your father and mother.
- Remember the Sabbath and keep it Holy.
- Don’t use your Higher Power's name in vain, or anyone else's.

Yes. But there are many ways that man deceives himself. So the claim of knowledge of salvation is not the same as salvation.
Such as?
- Don't lie.
- Don't cheat.
- Don't steal.
- Don't kill.
- Don't commit adultery.
- Don't covet what your neighbor has, especially his wife.
- Honor your father and mother.
- Remember the Sabbath and keep it Holy.
- Don’t use your Higher Power's name in vain, or anyone else's.
- Do unto others as you would have them do to you.
"For the love of money is the root of all evil..." -- I Timothy 6:10, KJV
If a person believes the gospel of Jesus, that it is the atoning sacrifice of the second Person of the Trinity alone that is the reason he is saved, that it is nothing in himself which is the reason for his salvation, that the sinless righteousness of Jesus has been imputed on his behalf and that is the only reason he can stand before a holy God, if he believes this gospel, it is because God has chosen him to believe it. Election.
You are deceiving yourself right now.
No no no. God is deceiving him using a demon pretending to be the Holy Spirit. Keep it straight! Man does nothing.

Satan masquerades as an angel of light.
God uses demons to deceive men:2 Corinthians 11:14
And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.
God sends powerful delusions to men:1 Kings 22:22–23
And he said, ‘You are to entice him, and you shall succeed; go out and do so.’ Now therefore behold, the Lord has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; the Lord has declared disaster for you.”
God hides his knowledge from men, and reveals himself to others:2 Thessalonians 2:11
For this reason God will send upon them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false, in order that they all may be judged who did not believe the truth, but took pleasure in wickedness.
Matthew 11:25
At that time Jesus said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children.
You try to make my position sound "ridiculous" with how you word it, but it is Biblical. God is in control of ALL things, including the unbelief of man.
You were running from your own position. I put you back on the righteous path that makes God the one that temps men with evil and the author of sin. You should thank me.
