I would agree with you that ftd hasn't shown the slightest inkling of understanding the doctrine of Total Depravity.

In fact, the Scriptures he quotes, and his continual insistence that man is seeking after god (notice the small "g") continually affirm the doctrine that all men are "dead in trespasses and sins" and that they are incapable of performing any God (large "G") actions prior to regeneration.

And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. (Genesis 6:5) Just as true today as it was in the day's of Noah.

re. 142.

The paragraph should read:

In fact, the Scriptures he quotes, and his continual insistence that man is seeking after god (notice the small "g") continually affirm the doctrine that all men are "dead in trespasses and sins" and that they are incapable of performing any God (large "G") pleasing actions prior to regeneration.
