Cornelius is definitely an interesting figure in the Bible. The scriptures state that there is no fear of God before the eyes of lost (Rom. 3:18). However, it is said of Cornelius that he "feared God" (Acts 10:2), which some have taken as evidence against total depravity, or concluded that he was regenerate before Peter came to him.
How do you explain Cornelius's fear of God in light of Romans 3:18, if we feel that Cornelius was yet unconverted at the time, which most(?) Calvinists would conclude?
