Of course we have the power to believe!!!You have a strange way of defining the faith of God that works in us .as if it came from us who have no power to believe.
You keep preaching that Calvinist tripe over the Word of God.
God draws us with loving kindness---we are drawn to Him because of Jesus dying for us and the hope of a better promise.No I think God lovingly does the first work of drawing us to salvation. Called loving living commandments.
God doesn't do what Calvinists says and drag us to Him and put His faith in us because we can't have faith.
You preach against God and teach doctrines from men, and you know where those come from don't you?If you do not hear his voice and acknowledge it is his power working in us by which could do what is required .Then a person remains in un-belief. No faith not little none. And doubt is not the opposite of faith unbelief again in no faith is .
Study what it mean to both will hear the word ofGod and empower some to do it.
Again living in these earthen bodies of death suffering the pangs of hell Without him to do the first work we cannot believe Him. Believing requires doing
Why murmur rather than both hearing and doing?
Philippian 2: 13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. Do all things without murmurings and disputings:
Perhaps a better picture of him would aid in understanding the Philippian 2 passage above. God doing the first works making our hearts soft
Job 11-16 My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined. Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.
But he is in one mind, and who can turn him? and what his soul desireth, even that he doeth. For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him.Therefore am I troubled at his presence: when I consider, I am afraid of him. For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me:
Can you turn him ?
Who makes your heart soft.?
