Bible Note: Hey Nolan, I was so pleased to get your note, thank you. And yes, I do agree many of these types of discussions laspe into arguments that stray far from the questions or text at hand. As to James 4:17, wouldn't one's realization of right from wrong result from the Spirit's indwelling, thus the quickening of their spirit? Or to use the words of Jesus, they now have eyes to see, and ears to hear (see Matthew 13). Doesn't Paul say in Romans 8:7-8 that the person who is in the flesh (unsaved) is not even able to please God? In Christ our King, Peace. --JCP |
