Jn 6:44
44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
No man can come here means no man has the ability to come to Christ. That cancels out the myth that man has a freewill,
It also means that no man has the ability to believe on Christ for Salvation. Because Christ equates believing on Him with coming to Him. Jn 6:64-65
64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
What about those Jesus says to them Jn 5:40
40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
Thats answered in Jn 6:44 they simply will not come because they cannot come unless the Power of God draws them and makes them willing
Ps 110:3
3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.
If and when one comes to believe on Christ willingly, the credit goes to Gods Power !
op is incorrect.
for a soul Has a choice,
even if that choice is tiny,
even if all the choice is, is 'agreeing with God.'
if not, it seems the inverse would be true and choosing evil was not possible
for adam and eve, and the fall was God's will..
sin would not be possible as a concept!... so it would be a twisted
leibnizian
occasionalism... and leibniz was
the farthest thing from a real christian!
the theology mentioned is an utter inversion of things... created by
esaus to harm souls, since whenever the "i am saved already"
concept started as a way to HARM souls.
and not true.
saved means , not just accepting Christ but meeting Him on the
clouds as part of it... and getting out of dodge (this hellscape earth.)
otherwise one is jumping the gun.
as for sin, this world, body and type of nature is sin..
we are there, in it, and the point is to Return to Him
in His paradise Home he made for us..
not to enjoy or fallen matrix.
