Is a unbeliever Spiritually alive?
Answered in the OP already see below.
lol deflecting questions with none of the answers- so predictable.
deal with the OP and address it- no rabbit trails today.
To summarize the tulip test failed the truth test in the parable :
T- man can choose to hear, see and receive the gospel
U- all can choose to believe and receive as demonstrated in the parable of the 4 soils
L- all soils received the seed without exception
I- 3 soils resisted all but 1 soil remained faithful and did not resist
P- 3/4 soils ( minds/hearts )did not preserver in the faith
* And as we can see they all had life to begin with in each soil. Only something alive can be choked. You cannot choke the dead lol.
* And only something alive can be scorched by the Sun and withered.
* Only someone alive can receive the word in the heart and have it snatched away
* Only someone alive can receive the word with Joy and endure for a while
oops
next
hope this helps !!!
