Subject: Submissive or Suppressed Wills |
Bible Note: Brother Mark, If by consent you imply agreeable to or to show willingness, then yes I can feel comfortable with those terms but not necessarily pertaining to salvation, however, if the implication is one of granting permission, most assuredly no, pertaining to salvation or regeneration. I was more simply implying that we are responsive to regeneration, driven by an act of God that makes us now able to respond positively where as prior to, we were unwilling or arguably more appropriately, unable, to respond. The way in which God fully acts upon us however, I have moved away from and not tried to detail any further and would not want to now, as I don't believe Scripture has revealed in full the intricacies of that action. Consenting to salvation was not meant to be implied in general terms, rather responsiveness to regeneration and the influence thereof. WOS |
