Subject: Submissive or Suppressed Wills |
Bible Note: Dear Doc, Concerning submission and suppression, I didn’t intend to imply that this is necessarily something we do to ourselves or something God does do man. In the terms relevant to my inquiry, and I’m sure I didn’t lay it out quite as clear as I would have liked to, I was looking for our state of responsiveness at and after regeneration and how the moral agent plays out it’s role to our role, or rather responsibility, in acting upon our will. Probably still not clear in all respects and maybe I can’t properly convey them at this time. If I can’t the best thing may be to take a moment or two to recollect my thoughts and better present them. In any event, I’m looking at this relevant to the redeemed and I did not intend to push it into the context of obedience, at least not yet. I seem to be more interested in our state at, and immediately following, regeneration as part of the salvation process and ultimately imagine that the desire behind obedience will stem from that.
