***If God had wanted men to fly He would have given him the airplane. So, He did. ***
Are you saying that the Heavenly wing of UPS delivered their prototype airplane to Kitty Hawk?
***God uses us to witness to others. If my faith is true, it will speak for itself to the other person. My job is to share the Gospel and give a reason for the hope that I have.***
Why? If the Holy Spirit indwells whomsoever He will, of what use is your witness? If you witness to the elect, that is of no use, since the HS will indwell at His timetable. If you witness to the non elect, are you taunting them with what they cannot have?
***Where have I said that? You have been showed hundreds of scriptures by many people, reasonably proving the faith to be true, but you have rejected them. ***
There is a huge difference between the reality of the world and what you believe. If you believe something to be true, then shouldn’t you ought to state it that way?
***If you witness to the non elect, are you taunting them with what they cannot have?***
You apparently have not been used by God as a tool to bring someone to Christ. I have, and it is a very awesome, humbling experience. God uses whom he will and what he will to bring his children home. It may be a rousing sermon, a quiet prayer, a particular verse in the Bible, an example of love and devotion by a servant of God, or whatever God wants to show the lost his love. We do not know who the elect are, so we are charged to witness to all what we know about the love of God. That is why we spend so much time with you, because we love you in Christ.

We are to share the Gospel because Christ sent us to do so. God uses us as His instruments to preach the word so that others can hear. Those who were predestined will eventually believe. ....... If I preach to a non elect, then it is not a taunt because my witness will be nonsense to him. In addition, as Irish said, we can never know whether we are witnessing to an elect or not. We are commanded to witness to everyone.

I believe that if I drop a hammer it will fall. I know that the faith God gave me in our Lord Jesus Christ is true. How's that? :)
