Subject: What happens when you refuse God? |
Bible Note: Hello, I hope I haven't caused any ill feeling when I asked the question about refusing God. He did give us free Will and I used that Will when I refused to obey Him, for which I have been very, very sorry. Please explain your reason or justification, when you say "no man can refuse God" as I truely want to understand, just in caser I am wrong. |
