Go back and read my post careful. Instead of answering it with denials, innuendos, and unsubstantiated opinions, try refuting my answers with Scripture and see how far you get. All men have faith. That is true. However, all faith is not given to all men.
Keep pretending you've never been answered.
What Scripture did you provide that I was to refute? Provide that.
Believe me nothing you say needs re read or read slow. That you are inconsistent, confused, heterodox and all over the place on faith is readily seen.
You say faith isn't given to men by God.
Then you say all men have it including the unsaved.
Then you argue how asinine it is for Scripture and us to argue God gives to unregenerate men faith something you now argue unregenerate men have already.
Now you are arguing above 'however all faith isn't given to all men'.
Faith is innate. Faith is practiced by man every day; not faith in God but faith on others and faith in other things. The rich young ruler walked away sorrowful because he put his trust or faith in his riches rather than in Christ.
There you go! Faith is innate you say, including the unsaved then you mock when it is shown God grants the unregenerate faith. This shows how man-centric your system is.
You praise man for innate faith. You mock Scriptures provided showing it is God who grants faith. Your argument on the rich man is the same. You make it his responsibility to get himself saved or make a move, decision, exercise his own power source of faith, trying to prove man can do this. John 3 shows man cannot do this, it comes from above.
But as usual you're in error. In the same context the disciples were perplexed about this rich man and eternal life and asked the Christ of God
'Who then can be saved?' The Christ answered
'With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible'. That's right, man
cannot, as it is an
impossibility but you argue that he can. I'm siding with Christ not your man made man exalting soteriology. You're plainly wrong here as usual. Now put a spin on it and show us all how it is possible contrary to what the Christ of God did plainly show. You're an expert at it.
Jesus said that except you be like these little children you cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. Except you have faith as little children you cannot enter heaven. He was speaking of their simplistic faith. Even small children, as small as infants, have faith. That is what Christ was teaching. They have innate faith in their parents that it is their parents that will provide, nurture, protect, etc. them, and not some stranger. The object of their faith is their parents. What or who is the object of your faith? If it is not Jesus Christ and his saving work on the cross you cannot be saved. That is what biblical faith is all about.
You have
enough to answer about what Christ said above and give Him
all the glory and none to man.
You're simply making the same error still claiming that man can when the Christ of God, being consistent, is showing man cannot, 'with men it is impossible...'
