We somewhat differ.
Jesus Came to Earth to Accomplish several things. Highlighting;
* To GIVE His Flesh, For the life of all men.
^ He Did.
(That was Jesus' ACT)
* To OFFER TO all men, an "IF" / "THEN" proposal.
^ He Did.
(that was Jesus' TEACHING)
All men Can ACCEPT or REJECT Jesus' OFFER.
(Man's Response)
"IF" a man Freely Chooses to ACCEPT Jesus' Offering...
(Mans' Act of Free-Willing-ness)
"THEN" the The Lord Jesus "Will GIVE" the man His GIFT of SALVATION.
(Lords Act)
"IF" a man REJECTS the Lords OFFERING;
"THEN".. the man has Rejected Receivings, the Lords Gift of Salvation.
(Man's Choice, Act, Lords Response)
IOW- The Lord has a Gift for All, and Reveals What the Gift IS...but the individual Must choose To Accept the Offering, BEFORE the individual Will Receive The Lords Offered Gift.
(The Lords Gift is Forced on No one. A man MUST Choose to Accept the Offering...or He Will NOT Receive the Gift)
John 6
- [51] I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
Heb 10
- [10] By the which will we are sanctified through theoffering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
A man who does Not Accept OR Reject The Lords Offering??
Matt: 12
- [30] He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.
Just saying;
Something OFFERED, to you, IS yours To Take.
If you Take the OFFERING, Then you Receive a Blessing of A Prepared Gift.
If you Reject the OFFERING, Then you do Not Receive the Gift prepared for you.
Glory to God,
Taken
