Bible Note: 'Lets not read more into "He is able" than what is written "He is able" means exactly that. The secondary part that must be considered is: Are you willing?' Funny...I don't see the words "Are you willing?" in the text anywhere at all...who is the one reading beyond what the text says? :) You wrote: "Or since becoming saved are you now a puppet, or robot, that is unable to still make choices?" At no time are we puppets or robots, before or after salvation. The essential question is whether God's grace accomplishes its purposes (i.e. in making us willing) or not. Does the efficacy of God's work really come down to me? What a reason to boast that would be! --Joe! |
