>>Decades ago, I was helping out with the youth in a good church. A few were asked to tell about their salvation experience. One simply said he was raised in a Christian home, and he had been going to church all his life. I just shook my head, and thought some of these people may be tares among the wheat.

You have to be careful with that. Being raised Christian so that it is your only worldview is God’s Plan A for his Elect. He wants families to raise their children as his children. Plan B is the person who lived away from him for years and suddenly has a dramatic conversion experience.

I’m a Plan B person and wish I had been a Plan A person so all those years wouldn’t have been spent on some of the things I spent them on.

I am also a plan B, as you call it. I wish the same, that I had been raised in a Christian home. Unfortunately, I was not. I also spent time on stuff that I wish I had not spent time on.
