Subject: Who, besides the elect of God,are saved? |
Bible Note: Dear Ed, Do you think that fallen man has a spark of good in him,and if he can just be made to see the truth, that spark will set a blaze of faith in his heart? The reason I ask is because you always appeal to a situation where a man wants to be saved but cannot if he is not elect. You then use this scenario to refute election. But the sad truth is that all men do know the truth but "suppress it in unrighteousness". They want no part of it. That is why I believe they must be born again in order to desire Christ and His truth concerning the gospel. Rom 1:20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.
