“God’s grace is free and offered without merit; however, human beings have been granted freedom by God and can refuse his grace” (Calvinism Compared to Wesleyan Perspectives). The offer is for everyone, but not everyone will receive it as they may choose to resist the Spirit’s call. “The Holy Spirit can only draw to Christ those who allow him to have his way with them.

The History of Bela Bartok The composer that I will be writing about in the paper will be Bela Bartok. Bartok was born on March 25, 1881 and he died on September 26, 1945.
