That's what I think too. But....

I have fat fingers and inaccurate placement of them on keyboard keys, and a reluctance to use the preview button.

John 6:44 No man can come to me except the Father which has sent Me draw him; and I will raise Him up on the last day." So, since those who came top Jesus must be drawn by the Father, (John 6:44); and no one could come to Jesus except it were given to him to come by Jesus' Father, (John 6:65)...

That should be Wrong. All will be raised on the last day: some to aeonous honour and some to aeonous contempt. The believers are not the only ones who are raised by Christ on the last day. John 5:28-29; Dan. 12:2

The Bible doesn't mention logic. But that doesn't mean you can freely ignore reasoning through biblical texts logically.

I edited it to John 5:28-29. So, you must have fired your response off within 5 minutes of my posting it. PaulThomson said: Wrong. All will be raised on the last day: some to aeonous honour and some to aeonous contempt. The believers are not the only ones who are raised by Christ on the last...

Jesus said, "No one van come to me unless the Father draws Him." Judas came to Jesus and was part of His inner circle. How did he come to Jesus without the Father drawing Him? So did scribes and pharisees come to Jesus to argue Matt. 15:1. How did they come to Jesus without being drawn by the...

You are committing the "negative inference fallacy". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_conclusion_from_affirmative_premises#:~:text=Negative%20conclusion%20from%20affirmative%20premises%20is%20a%20syllogistic%20fallacy%20committed,yet%20both%20premises%20are%20affirmative. Your line of...

Many people came to Jesus drawn by the Father who were against Christ and remained against Him. Judas Iscariot was attracted to Jesus because of what the Father was doing and saying through Jesus. Pharisees and sadduces came to Jesus to tes him, judge Him, oppose and accuse Him because of what...

I never said God is fully contained by time. What does that even mean?

It says time (everlasting time) existed before creation. So, if time was not created with the rest of creation, but existed before creation, when does the Bible say time was created? If God is from everlasting, and God has always existed, then time must go back to everlasting as well.

Yes it can. If Ms. Jones is a teacher and sends her kids to Mr Water's karaoke evening., Mr Waters may say , "All that Ms. Jones sends to me will come to me. That does not preclude other children also coming of their own volition, or sent, from other teacher's classes.

You are resorting to the fallacy of special pleading. You have left reason out of the defense of your opinion. You claim God is a special case, so normal analogies re receiving gifts from Him don't apply to those receiving from Him.

Ps. 90:2 BEFORE the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, even FROM EVERLASTING TO EVERLASTING, YOU ARE GOD. Psalm 106:48 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel FROM EVERLASTING TO EVERLASTING: and let all the people say, "Amen. Praise you the LORD. Mic. 5:2...
