“Free will” seems to be something that you are categorizing as something that MUST fail to accept gospel. God can get His ducks in a row any way He wants including arranging for willing people to be there.
I have news for you, the gospel intensity in the world went way down since the 3rd century Roman church thought it a wonderful idea to make a bunch of unbelievers nice rather than keep to the actual gospel of actual salvation.
I don’t know about you and your blasphemies, however. That’s even worse than what the Roman church did.
And who’s forcing this on anybody?
Nobody as far as I can tell.
Basically, pooh pooh the cross at your own eternal peril. The cross works! And evidence of salvation of Muslims will be OBVIOUS if it occurs. Not even Taqqiya would be able to fake the fruit of the Spirit. Taqqiya can fake our modern hypocritical Churchianity very easily. It can’t fake the fruit of the Spirit.
And anyhow I never said count on EVERYONE becoming a friend. That’s a claim that you claim I claimed. HOWEVER, the gospel when shared with holy guts can mow down a lot more satanic opposition than you or most weak Christians (if Christians at all) give it credit for. And even if people refuse to be friends, the gospel can sap a lot of power from the demons that drive those people, and just plain bring you protection from both the Holy Spirit and from angels.
If you concluded that I am mad for the gospel you’d be quite right. And the big secret is that everyone could be mad for the gospel. They just have to stop saying no to God. When you talk about free will, look at your OWN will. If you do not believe in gospel power, you haven’t let the gospel power (or have let only traces of it) INTO your life.
