"Well, gee , this guy was "evangelizing me", but I guess I'm just not one of the ones the Lord sees fit to "regenerate", so I went out and robbed a bank..... I only hope to get 12 predestination types on my jury..."
(I know, we're still held accountable, but the above example is an all too common reaction to the concept of predestination - humans being humans, give them even the most minute hint that they may not make it anyhow and they will then say, "If that's the case, I'm gonna party")
If God has regenerated the person than my words won't fall on deaf ears. If God has not regenerated someone, then, well, it doesn't matter how good I am at explaining the Word. It will fall on deaf ears.
