Pilgrim,

re: "You asked for help in demonstrating 'to consciously choose to believe things'. What HAS been given, as stated several times via Scripture and logic, that all choices to believe something is, of necessity, a conscious decision."

And yet no one so far has demonstrated such an ability.



re: "Your personal perception of your alleged inability to do so is hardly a viable proof."

It's proof that I have never been able to consciously choose to believe things. I haven't said that that means that no one else can.




re: ". We here hold that the Bible is the sole and final authority in all matters pertaining to faith and life."

I have no idea what that has to do with this OP.




re: "If you consciously choose to not believe what God has written, there isn't much I or anyone can do to help you further."

I see I need to repeat that I have never been able to consciously choose to believe or not believe things.

At any rate, it's apparent that all I'm going to get here is a bunch of grief so I shall be moving on and you can close this topic.
