The guys only point is “we are commanded to forgive others but He doesn’t have to!” Without even addressing how He is Lord and knows everything about anyone’s intentions, while we know absolutely nothing outside of our own sinful projection.
It’s pretty dumb and lazy.
It all comes down to an ego problem. Some people cant accept that they themselves are meant to be subordinate to a higher Being
I disagree, it’s really not easy. My heart desperately wants to sin and seems to rationalize it in any way it can. Only by being called by the Father was I ever able to overcome myself and ask for forgiveness. It felt like I had to be forced in a way. I don’t think anyone chooses Him on their own, and Scripture affirms this. No man comes to the Father unless he is called by Him.
Yes. We are all dead in our trespasses and sins and a dead man cannot reach out to God. The Bible says no one seeks after God and men love darkness rather than light. It takes the spiritual rebirth and regeneration the Holy Spirit works inside of the elect to even enable us to seek God. It takes the Holy Spirit's changing of our hearts of stone into hearts of flesh to make us want to seek God.
We are still strapped to our mortal flesh that is under the curse of sin in this world and that creates sinful desires in us. Someday we will be freed from that and we will never sin again.
