Subject: Hebrews 6:6 explained |
Bible Note: Brother Tim, "God's plan in everything He did, every choice He made, was to extend mercy to everyone." I agree Tim, God does offer mercy to all, however it must be pursued through faith. Unredeemed mankind are incapable of faith because they are dead in sin. God extends to those who are being saved the gift of faith and this is a purely gracious act on His part. I cannot accept the unscriptural notion that man is not so dead that he cannot make a positive response to the gospel. I believe that the redeemed are born again by the will of God, and not by the will of man. Thanks for your thoughts, but we are diametricaly opposed on the soverignty of God and the sinful condition of man. I can see why it takes God's enlightenment to change a persons doctrine.
