We're just going to go in circles. No, the carnal man is unable to choose God. It requires a new nature which requires being born again of the Spirit. All of mankind is condemned already due to their collective rebellion. And I never said it was the Gospel. It's an overview of God's relationship to man. He has found all of mankind guilty. Every last person who ever lived or ever will. For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, none are righteous, none seek after God, we are slaves to sin, the carnal mind is against God and cannot submit to his law, the carnal mind cannot please God, and so on. And then the other side, those he foreknew he predestined, those he predestined he called, those he called he justified, those hes justified he glorified. I highlighted mind because it proves that a man cannot think one day, oh, I think I'll be a christian and follow Jesus. Impossible according to scripture. We can do nothing to please God in our fallen state. Sin corrupted to the core. We see heart, mind, and flesh are all in a state of corruption and rebellion against God before salvation.
Jesus told the Pharisees that they do not believe because they are not of his sheep, not that they aren't of his sheep because they do not believe. He also said all that the Father has given him will come to him and his sheep hear his voice.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, 4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love 5 he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, 6 to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved. 7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, 8 which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight 9 making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ 10 as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth.
It's all about him, not us.
I know you will pull the foreknown card, so let me just say that God created time and space and he is not a fortune teller. He didn't choose someone based off of merit or some inclination they may have or by being intelligent enough to choose him while others were too stupid to. You do nothing to get your salvation. When you demand grace, it's no longer grace.
