The scripture cannot be broken. When Paul says that no man can call Jesus the Christ, save by the Holy Ghost, we can believe it. Therefore, your 500 verses must make room for the ones you find inconvenient.

The Holy Spirit undoubtedly does reveal God to man, but not irresistibly:

“And Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, saying, “It was necessary that the word of God be spoken first to you. Since you thrust it aside and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we are turning to the Gentiles.”

The call to repent is an honest call. God does not lie. He doesn’t command anyone to repent without allowing them to do so. If they refuse, so be it.

“Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God, and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.”
