Romans 8:8 CSB - "Those who are in the flesh cannot please God."
The God I worship, the God of the Bible, lifts this Curse so that such a choice can . . . and will be . . . made.
Ezekiel 36:25-27 KJV - "Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you. A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them."
I don't know how anyone could ever ignore these kinds of passages that are scattered throughout the Bible . . . but "christians" do.
Deuteronomy 30:6 KJV - "And the LORD thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live."
