People aren’t lost because agod didn’t supply them with all they needed for salvation. But because they reject it in favor of thier own designs or another they accepted and trust in.
people have the ability to have faith but they often put thier faith in lies or faulty things Islam , many Islam is folks are faithful Islamic people they believe it’s true so they live like they believe it’s true they heard the word of Islam and accepted it in tbier heart .
others heard the argument against even the existance of God and they gave thier hesrt over to it accepting it as truth they even have faith but they’ve put it into scientific theories that existsnce was a cosmic accident created from some mysterious explosion and then evolution over billions of years lol mutations and grotesque coincidence from microscopic organisms to tadpoles to human bieng
I’ve had many discussions with atheists and evolutionists and they are fully conviced thier entire heart is conviced by things they cannot see or prove but they heard someone else with a degree state is factual. Sven assuming to know what happened a hundred billion years ago.
faith is an operation of humanity people operate after what they believe and learn and trust in and the word they hear and are convinced of.
It’s how any faith or religion or even a cult spreads and acchieves believers. Charles Manson convinced a group of young drug addicts experimenting with psychedelics tbat he was “Jesus and also Satan in one “ in the end they believed so much they killed for him and carved in thier foreheads in alliegance to him . What had happened , was that they put thier faith in the wrong belief system and person , they were deceived
Faith in God comes from the gospel he sent into the world tbat Jesus and the apostles preached promising life and forgiveness and peace . But not everyone believes it when they hear about Jesus dying for thiers sins or God sending his son to save the world he loves
but the reason people don’t believe isn’t that he doesn’t allow them or didn’t make them able to hear and believe him it’s that they reject what he’s saying in favor of other ideas to believe. it’s that Satan deceived them and they believe in the wrong things. God says one thing , Satan says another ….man has a choice who to believe and follow “ faith is a principle of man’s design it’s how we operate we can put it in the wrong things and ideas and people though but everyone is able to believe something they hear and learn
