Exactly. In the original greek it’s the people who take it regard it as an honor to have, something desired and wanted.

So in their minds they are totally desirous and accepting of it, and voluntarily take it for whatever benefits come along with it.

Yep, exactly. Most bible interpreters pass right over the information from God that says it can be refused. Refusing gets you hounded, and then killed, but it CAN be refused.

God has made it so that it cannot be forced upon a person. It must be willingly accepted.
