Romans 1 states otherwise which
@reneweddaybyday has gone over and over maybe go back and catch up.
“But to all
who receive him,
who believe in His name, He
gave the right to become children of God…” (Jn. 1:12, ESV)
Do the Reformed crew CHOOSE to defy this precedent? If so I would like an explanation.
Actually no, I really do not want an explanation from them, as God would get the blame (for creating men evil) and none of the glory (for providing an objectively valid offer of salvation).
Isa 1:4
Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters:
they have forsaken the LORD,
they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger,
they are gone away backward.
Jhn 5:43
I am come in my Father's name, and
ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
Jhn 3:11
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and
ye receive not our witness.
Luk 9:5
And
whosoever ***
will not*** receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
Luk 10:10
But into whatsoever city ye enter, and
they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,
Zec 7:11
But
they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.
