    Oh, but you do have the power to choose to walk in your fallen free will. You do so, by neglecting to walk in the Spirit. So, I don't assume anything of what you'll say next, but I do know what scripture says about how we must CHOOSE to "walk in the Spirit". But if we don't choose, then we will...

    Continue the context: [16] But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? [17] So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. [18] But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words...

    Every time you sin, that is an expression of YOUR free will. Now go ahead and tell me that YOU don't sin, and both I and scripture will call you a liar.

    No, but I have experienced this: Acts 2[17] And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God,I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: > Does that make the Spirit...

    The Lord of the harvest is not at work in the fields? God is not hard at work at his own promise? Are you saying that after Pentecost, Paul and Ananias, He has been fast asleep under some shade tree? Not so! Acts 2[14] But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto...

    No! You are forgetting that we are talking about the UNsaved and not the saved! The unsaved are those who reject or neglect to have faith in Jesus for the free Gift of eternal life. They choose to not relinquish their self will for His. "They are gods" unto themselves, sitting in the temple of God.

    How was Paul drawn to Christ? Acts 9:1-9 And lets talk about who it was that spoke to Ananias about Paul. Acts 9:10-19. Are you saying that the Holy Spirit of God, through Christ, does not now approach every man since Pentecost?

    LOL...it was not the fault, plan or failure of God, that Judas didn't/couldn't HEAR His Voice!! The fault lies with Judas, in his own free will choice to KEEP his OWN free will. Jesus did say "ye are gods", which is to say that He repects the sovereignty of our free will, even though it shall...

    How about Judas Iscariot? You know that he was called "the son of perdition". Since there is more than one (see 2 Thes. 2:3), how "many" more are there?

    That is so for every person who "opens the door" by their free will. Rev. 3:20 But we are not talking about converted people. We are talking about people who choose unbelief. As long as they remain in unbelief, they remain to be condemned already. Mark 3:29 says that such people are "in danger...

    1. Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is unforgiveable. Therefore, the results will be eternal condemnation. John 3:18 2. The sin of unbelief is unforgiveable. Therefore, the results will be eternal condemnation. Mark 3:29 Yet, according to Jesus, there is only ONE sin that is unforgiveable...

    John 10[34] Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? In our bodies, which are ruled by our own minds, we all were made to be the potential temples for the Living God to dwell in. When God's Eternal Son Jesus was made to be flesh, the very Spirit of God the...

    How is it that you oppose Rev. 3:20? [20] Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. Ans. You honestly don't know!

    Wrong answer. So now, you are going to squirm on this also! Don't you know that unbelief is the only sin that condemns people to eternal destruction? That is what Jesus was saying in John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he...

    You have a dilemma in your conclusion #1. The "sin of unbelief" is the blashemy against the Holy Spirit, which is the only sin that is unforgiveable.

    You are missing the point! God knows how, and to what level He must go, in His attempt to bring us to repentance towards Him. But for all His work in doing so, we still must open the door by our own free will. We see that free will of Paul being dominated into submission by Christ, when Paul...

    You mean, that by our free will, we heard Him "knocking", and THEN WE opened the door. To that, I agree.
