1 | Rom 3:11 and Hebrews 11:6 ???? | John 3:16 | Parable | 89259 | ||
Regarding your point with Rom 3:11 THERE IS NONE WHO UNDERSTANDS, THERE IS NONE WHO SEEKS FOR GOD; I note Hebrews 11:6 Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards THOSE WHO EARNESTLY SEEK HIM. (emphasis mine) What is scripture trying to teach with these two seemingly contradictory verses? Thanks, Parable |

2 | Rom 3:11 and Hebrews 11:6 ???? | John 3:16 | prazn | 89262 | ||
The text that you reference in Romans 3 is a quotation from the Psalms. Specifically: Ps 14:1 The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, they have committed abominable deeds; There is no one who does good. Ps 14:2 The LORD has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men To see if there are any who understand, Who seek after God. Ps 14:3 They have all turned aside, together they have become corrupt; There is no one who does good, not even one. Please notice that the psalmist is referring to those who do not believe that there is a God. I believe that Hebrews 11:6 is referring to those who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and have had their spirits quickened (i.e., made alive) to commune or fellowship with God. Hope this helps! prazn |
