Any interpretation that goes against the plain and clear teaching on the words of the Lord cannot be correct.
That means a bad tree cannot bring forth good fruit. Even though the heretics disagree, I go with Jesus on this.
They have the flesh, within which nothing good dwells, deciding in favour of God Whom they
hate with their incurably wicked heart which needs replacing, choosing to believe what is
incomprehensible to them, heard as foolishness, and to which they are opposed.
The heretic thinks this makes perfect sense and aligns with what Scripture teaches.
They claim that man needs nothing, not even from God, in order to come to belief,
but this is patently false, though some refuse to admit it. It is like they are allergic
to the truth. Like they are allergic to admitting to error, even when it is placed right
in front of their eyes. Watching a show recently a character said, there are three types
of people: those who see, those who see what they are shown, and those who do not see.
The heretics here do not even want to see. They deliberately choose to turn away from Scripture.
Man is incapable until enabled. But FWers claim otherwise. Repeatedly.
Romans 8 v 5-9Those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh; but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. The mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace, because the mind of the flesh is hostile to God: It does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Those controlled by the flesh cannot please God. You, however, are controlled not by the flesh, but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ.
