What’s interesting is that some folks seem more enamored of making points where they weren’t even called for by the context (the answer could easily have been “Yes I hope they accept Christ so that just that happens”) than they are enamored of God.
If a soul won’t accept Christ it isn’t by some accident, it is after God has exhausted all possibilities which is the only approach that is consistent with His character. In which case the person would sadly be self centered and have nowhere he or she wanted to go in the end but to the king of self centered spirits. Is conduct like we see here consistent with enslavement to the king of self centered spirits? Some skepticism would be justified to entertain about that.
And Christians who would be vessels of impact for good in the world would do well to avoid their own liaison with the king of self centered spirits.
“And Christians who would be vessels of impact for good in the world would do well to avoid their own liaison with the king of self centered spirits”.
That’s certainly right.
