Physically not spiritually.

Heb 6:4 For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit, Heb 6:5 and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, Heb 6:6 and then have fallen away, to restore...

Yes, all that is mostly true. The key issue here is who, you or Adam, heeded the voice of evil and disobeyed God causing your spiritual death. I believe that was you not Adam that caused your spirit to die.

Born physically not spiritually. God does not blame you for what anyone else, including Adam, has done.

True enough that God does not reject the believer. But He does not prevent you, the believer, from becoming and unbeliever. He will, through the Holy Spirit, give you all the help you ask for to continue you in your belief, but He does not prevent it. Belief is a condition for being saved, it...

That is not what it says. It says that IF those believers fall away, it will be impossible to restore them again.

Zec 12:1 The burden of the word of the LORD concerning Israel: Thus declares the LORD, who stretched out the heavens and founded the earth and formed the spirit of man within him. Do you believe that God formed your spirit within you? When? And if so, do you believe that God formed a dead...

Are you excluded from that description?

You weren't in the Garden to hear, heed or listen to anything.

Well that is certainly true. It is either one or the other, but there is nothing that says that you can't go from one to the other or back again. You possessed eternal life when you were born. If you do not believe that, what about all those babies who have died at or soon after being born...

But Hebrews 6:4,5 list several things that are indicative of one who has been saved. Enlightened, tasted the heaven gift, partaker of the Holy Spirit, tasted the good word of God, and tasted the powers of the world to come are all descriptions of one who has been saved. It is that position of...

And here I thought I could at least count on you to be true to your post #190. Oh well, I guess not.

That doesn't make sense. You are saying that you are able to believe because you believe. Faith in God is belief in God. In the Greek, "faith" and 'belief" are the same word, there is no difference. When you said, "when I heard the Gospel preached and through the power of the Holy Spirit...

Oh if I could only count on that.

Your calling me ignorant was not getting personal? Perhaps any reporting you do should begin by reporting your own reply #180.

Rom 4:3 For what does the Scripture say? "Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness." Rom 4:23 But the words "it was counted to him" were not written for his sake alone, Rom 4:24 but for ours also. It will be counted to us who believe in him who raised from the dead...

Maybe you wouldn't but some would.

Doesn't change your condition of being a pot.

Can you provide an example from scripture of one being born again?

The pot calling the kettle black. Again.
