EUREKA!!! :)

I do find it interesting that many here seem to worship at the altar of free will as if God never interferes with man's free will. If God did not possess both the power to interfere with our free will and the desire to overcome our free will and to make us willing, then NOBODY would ever seek after Christ.

The fact that anyone would ever seek after Christ is evidence that God has interfered with their free will and has in some way changed their will to conform to his.

If God will not interfere with our free will choices, then we are doomed by our nature to reject him and we are wholly incapable of being saved.

Carry on.

Amen. Likewise I find it interesting that many take actual offense at the idea of God doing His will by interfering. :) As you just said, nobody would be saved if He DIDN'T interfere.
