The God of Calvinism is a Mocking God

If Calvinism is true, God is mocking man in much of the Bible, pretending to offer salvation from the penalty His law requires for the evil He has decreed that each one commit ("Whatever is done in time is according to [God's] decree in eternity" 1); "God foreordains everything which comes to pass." 2 He pretends to be sincere in calling for repentance, while withholding the very grace men need to repent, having foreordained that man can't and won't repent without sovereign regeneration. Calvinism mocks God, His Word, and man himself!
