Some say its by election 100%
Some by our choice to seek and find 100%
Some say a little bit of both.
There are dozens of religions, even denominations that all have their own formula for salvation which contradict other formulas in other religions. A universalist view would not make logical sense, so the formulas can't all = the same. We can see what we put our faith in as life and death when it comes to the afterlife.
Along with that some people are born under different circumstances. For example, a person who is born in a Islamic country may be more influenced in becoming a Muslim. Or some people may die at a young age and not be saved, while someone at age 80 finally becomes saved.
Information is vast, could one if given in their lifetime truly figure out which is the correct path given with the vast amounts of information?
There are 3 Abrahamic religions.
1. Judaism
2. Christianity, along with dozens of denominations with their own formula for salvation. Not to mention a new emergence of "Restorationist" Which almost all of them have a completely different gospel.
3. Islam
4. Then we have denominations of Christianity that are embracing some 2nd coming Messiah who they claim already came with a new method of salvation.
Then on top of that, we have dozens of other religions.
33% of the world professes to be Christian, who knows what % are born again. 33% alone is quite a small percentage when you look at it, because that means possibly 2/3rds of the world will end up being unsaved.
And this is what I mean when it means life and death.
1. Christianity says everyone who rejects Jesus will be in hell.
2. The Talmud says Christians will be in a unpleasant place in the after life.
3. Islam says Christians will be burned.
1/3=33.33% so that's the chance if we look at it in a probability perspective just including the three major Abrahamic Religions.
It wouldn't be logical to make a conclusion that those outside of Christianity all know that they are rejecting the Messiah. So I don't think that when everybody is born they automatically know who the Messiah is and have a choice to accept or reject because if it was the case then most of the world would be Christian.
Based on all this I would conclude that although we do have a choice, God ultimately is what plays the major role on who becomes born again or not. Because some peoples eyes will all of a sudden be open no matter how blind they were (Many testimonies of that).
How much would you say God's role plays when it comes to people becoming Born again and Christian?
