Question for Christians

[John V]

Why would we need to ask ourselves?

You don't. You don't need to ask it of anyone, as you already know the answer. The fact that the question is asked of Christians specifically therefore implies that the author sees incompatibility between demographics and the Bible/Christianity. If so, then someone should just plainly state the case.

Hello guys,

My being a Christian now is 100% dependent upon God's grace.

Ephesians 1:3-6
English Standard Version (ESV)

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, 4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love 5 he predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, 6 to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved.


If I was predestined to believe in Christ Jesus as Savior, then I believe that I would come to the same convictions now even given different circumstances because God would draw me to Himself.

Alternatively you can argue that, as you were predestined to believe, God put you in circumstances in which you would believe. Same result but defuses some arguments.
