More denial, more rewriting scripture to conform to false doctrine.
1) False doctrine: The lost have no ability to seek God. Biblical doctrine, Luke 13:24, many of the lost seek the narrow door but do not find it.
2) False doctrine: The lost cannot hear or understand God's inspirited word. Biblical doctrine, Galatians 3:24, God's word leads the lost to Christ.
3) False doctrine: The lost suffer from total spiritual inability. Biblical doctrine, the lost can understand spiritual milk, the fundamentals of the gospel, 1 Corinthians 3:1-3. Paul spoke to "men of flesh" (non-indwelt people) using spiritual milk.
Conclusion: The lost have the limited spiritual ability to hear and learn from God's word, the gospel of Christ.
What's your purpose in posting, Van? Have you ever spiritually edified your Christian brethren, or been edified yourself in these exchanges you have on BB? Do you believe your posts are persuasive? I guess you must, if you continue to post. But there are at least three "witnesses" now - Charlie24, myself and Silverhair - to the confusing and unbiblical character of your posts. What will it take for you to hear them, to actually seriously consider their criticisms? Or are you posting mostly because you're bored and find it stimulating to "cross swords" with others on these threads?
Maybe instead of positing your perspective in the antagonistic, polemical way you have in the quotation above, you could simply state what you believe, offer supporting Scripture and respond to whatever observations from others arise. Going at your detractors in the way you do, framing your views in the form of rebuttals of their "false doctrine," seems to me to produce more heat than light. Do you want a discussion? Or are you just looking for a fight? Mostly, from the general character of your posts, it seems the latter is your goal.
