[QUOTE="aiki, post: 68918049, member: 178791"] Blind post. Sorry. What you describe of the few who find true salvation is quite biblical. [B]Matthew 7:13-14 (NKJV) [/B] [B]13 "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide [I]is[/I] the gate and broad [I]is[/I] the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14 Because narrow [I]is[/I] the gate and difficult [I]is[/I] the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. [/B] It is quite naturally of great concern to Christians that so many turn away from the salvation God offers to all. But God forces no one to accept His [I]gift[/I] of life in Christ. [I]God[/I] doesn't make the search difficult; the difficulty is all on [I]our[/I] end. We want to be self-centered, not God-centered, and this is where all the problems really lie. Paul the apostle wrote that every person has an innate knowledge of God that they suppress in unrighteousness. ([B]Ro. 1:18-20[/B]) It isn't, then, that God is hard to find, but that we simply don't want to find Him. Selah. [/QUOTE]
