The revelation of God through creation and conscience is not God drawing an individual.

When God is drawing someone, there is revelation of the person of Jesus as the Christ given. See Matthew 16: 15-18. And that's how the church is built.

In salvation, God isn't responding to the individual; the individual is responding to God.

The drawing of God begins at what is called God consciousness.
Its progressive. Not one dimensional
The last phase is the Father handing the ones who remained positive to the drawing, over to Christ.

If you knew that Jesus died for you then you knew He was Messiah. To know that and be saved means God revealed it to you. That's how Jesus added you to the church.

You said "I knew" like I was an eyewitness to him on the cross dying for me.
Faith is not an eyewitness. It just knows.

look if you could just quit thinking your in control of a class room and stop the monkey business with your pettiness and pointless comments.

Could you answer the question

Now if you want to be a teacher then you should answer the question to stop the class room becoming disruptive

The question


Are you saved if your still under the control of your free will .

the spirit is at conflict with the flesh and it stops the flesh from doing what it wants

Then its not you that lives any more but the spirit when your saved

This is because your soul has been born of spirit,

You said yourself the will of man lives in the soul.

So are you saved if your still under the control of your own free will

In currently at work if you must know. And I don't need this crap anymore.

So quit your hatred
