2 Corinthians 4:3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: 4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

John 12:40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them

Understand that it’s not those whose eyes have been blinded that we are here for. Understand there is nothing we can do to change minds if God isn’t calling them. We see the craftiness of Satan on a daily basis with the twisting of scripture. The changing of a word or two or the implication of a different meaning for a word is the way of the enemty. Satan is sly that way.

It’s only going to get worse as Satan knows he has little time left. Pray that those who read these posts are those who God is calling and that they will see the truth rather than believe the lie. Faint not.

I am of a different vein...I believe God knocks on everyone's door...I believe it is those who are searching for religion and accept it as opposed to looking for God whose eyes are blinded...

Those religious who do not have nor accept the indwelling of the Holy Spirit are the ones blinded...

But just for the FR record, whether I am right or you are right makes no difference...Whether God picked us or we pick him, we are all still on the narrow path...
