Bible Question (short): Which proposition is scriptural? |
Question (full): Dear Tim, I would appreciate it, if you would consider replying to the following: In the light of all of Scripture, which proposition do you suppose is the most reflective of the truth? Despite being "dead in sin", "without hope", and "loving darkness rather than light" fallen man still has the ability to choose spiritual good (Christ). or, Fallen man is absolutely unable to choose spiritual good (Christ)because he is "dead in sin", "without hope", and "loving darkness rather than light" and is totally dependent on God's mercy and grace? Please supply scriptural proof to substantiate your answer. Your Brother in Christ, John |
