No Man Can

    There is a direct and inverse correlation between terminology and ideas expressed by it. If one uses expressions like "easy believism", one is teaching both himself and others, that believing the gospel is an easy thing which anyone can perform at their whim. But what does the Bible say?

"Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot SEE the kingdom of God" (John 3:3).

"No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him..."(John 6:44)

"And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father" (John 6:65).

Wherefore I give you to understand, that...NO MAN can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost" (1 Cor. 12:3).

    No one can see the kingdom of God in the face of Jesus Christ without being born again, from above, by the Spirit of God. No one can come to Jesus by faith, except the Father draws them. No one can do it, unless it is given to them by the Father (God). And NO MAN can acknowledge that Jesus is the Lord, except is enabled by the Holy Spirit.
