Who, pre tell, is 'by themselves'???? Do they not have God's revelation? Has God not made himself clear to them? Do they not have the gospel? Do they not have the Church? Do they not have the scriptures? Do they not have the Holy Spirit convicting the world of sin???? Do that not have everything they need? Why do you people want to give unbelievers an excuse for their unbelief so badly?????
Let me ask. Does the following factor into the equation at all?
Rev 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan,
which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
What is so important about the following verses and what does it have to say about the free will of man? Is this done at the return of Jesus the Christ to sit on the throne of his glory?
Rev. 20:1-3 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him,
that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled:
I also wonder why this last part is done? and after that he must be loosed a little season.
Do we have a picture of 1-3 in the OT anywhere?
