Subject: 'Conscientious Objection' Biblical? |
Bible Note: Sir Pent First let me say I do not think your a humanist. However you like most of us have been influenced to some degree by the humanist. I think the magnified value of human life many hold is based in humanism. While I believe in free will, I also believe God through the Holy Spirit plays a big past in salvation. I have prayed with and for many people that said to me they had no idea what made them come to saving knowledge of the Holy Spirit. I have seen people walk in from the street and say I don't know what I'm doing here but something told me to come in, I want to know Jesus! I have seen a man preach a whole sermon in English (he does not know Spanish) and have a woman come forward to receive Christ. He talked to her and she to him and together they prayed the prayer of salvation, it was only after the service did anyone learn the woman only talked Spanish and had heard everything in Spanish. How did she hear him and he her? I say the Holy Spirit. I know my life there was a time that I just knew that I knew I had to get right with the Lord. Do I think I could have done anything to mess any of these incidents up? I would have to say NO! I believe anyone that is going to come to Christ will have the opportunity before they die, I think this is what is meant by God wills that none would perish. Therefore to me your argument does not hold up. |
