AMEN, Dahlseide. Wonderful post.

Not one soul feels he has anything but "free-will" when he chooses to believe God in a saving way. Later upon reading with understanding, he will soon realize that it was God all along. That when he reached out to accept salvation God behind the scenes had caused his hand to move.

What in the world is the downside to believing this? Why do men balk at giving God all the glory for their salvation?

Maybe because the more glory there is for God, the less glory there is for men and institutions.

"The nature of the Divine goodness is not only to open to those who knock. but also to cause them to knock and ask." -- AUGUSTINE
