Again, from what source does man receive his freewill?..........answer- "God"

So what this means is that God has given onto man a measure of freewill, without it being a threat to God in the slightest way.

This means that as to the question of believing or not, that we are called to believe, and that unless we hear that call, repent and believe, we will remain lost.

God does not force us to believe in Him....God stands at the door and knocks.


This is why Jesus sent his men out into the world to teach and make believers of men.
Because unless we go preaching, the lost remain lost.
