It is so sad that many people who attend church are trying so hard to save themselves and not loose their salvation. But this ridiculous heresy is precisely what we get from Billy/Franklin Graham.The dead man cannot be born again by his own decision - a statement which sounds ridiculous - and yet there are many who believe in it, as part of their religion. They exclude the quickening which can only come from God.
John 3:6 "born of the Spirit"
"Born" ~ Thus from the beginning from the very beginning of the work of the Holy Spirit man can do absolutely nothing about coming to Christ.
The Puritans realised this Biblical teaching and so never held the silly evangelical meetings which modern people get up to today. Like the Graham family and their followers.
"of the Spirit" ~ A NEW creature from a brand new beginning - 'OF' the Spirit.
Yet we still get the self savers trying to teach sinners "What they must do" to be saved.
Asking some sinner to make their decision to decide for Christ, is an insult to God. As the Bible teaches God's plan and purpose for the elect is not initiated by some depraved sinner making some decision???
I guess the Graham types think they can control God!!
