that if the scripture cannot speak to them, and those here who have time and again proven the truth, how can they have any hope?
You have the same thoughts I did when I first came here and I don't see any hope
Now if I can see this and they can't it just proves they are fully entrenched and only Gods Spirit can open their eyes.
I said the same as you. We know the Holy Spirit does His job, so it is done already. But we also know He is rejected.
but they don't want the truth...so why do we keep on putting "pearls before swine" here?
They don't want IT, that is evident. Possibly for others to know HIS Word. It doesn't take one long to see the stark difference between His Church based on God's Word alone and The RCC with it's man made teachings with these posts.

Wonderfully put — it’s a great question, “pearls before swine” though. But having this information out for all to see is the point. God is sovereign and almighty — we can only pray (to Him) that he will soften their hearts of stone.

Yes, I found that too.. but still gave the benefit of the doubt for along time. I think maybe I didn't want to feel the pain of knowing their rejection of the truth...that somehow they might be persuaded to the Lords way of seeing things.
The up side is it does drives us into His word...(to pick up our sword) and get into the battle. I have found many discussions take place off line, in the real world, and for these exchanges made here, and a part of, I've been armed much better by understanding HOW they do fight the battle...and clearly uses the tactics of the enemy to do so.....
...It's one thing to read about his tactics..quite another to see them in action.... So these threads have helped position me well in the outside world when these issues are presented. So it's been very helpful in understanding the warfare and how it's played.
