Did their paganism and total lack of Godly
comprehension keep them from
understanding how to repent?

I'm with Bill on this one. God is with Bill

I'm not surprised since you and Bill are
so into culture and all that - but don't bring God into your
folly.
The pagan Persian City of Nineveh
repented at the preaching of Jonah (Luke 11:32) And what do
you
suppose his message to them
was?

How interesting - Debbie Sawzak is of a
Calvinistic bent; because after all it is his doctrine that claims one
must be regenerated before it is possible to repent because of "total
depravity" and this comes outof a
misunderstanding of the spiritual realities
involved.

Is repentance part of the Gospel? Yes, the NT is
replete with directives to repent. But repentance is not a means by
which or through which people are saved. It is Jesus Christ who is
our Savior. Salvation is in him, complete with mediation on our
behalf. Repentance is therefore our response to the greatest
news the world has ever heard; it is our response to the good news
of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Lance, I now see what you meant today about the exchange bw
Bill and David, having read the full message from Bill. The above is
the crux, isn't it? It (esp the part I bolded) reminds me of what
Victor said numerous times in his Human Person course: I know Christ
first of all, before anything else, as my Saviour. The
accountability, the repentance, arise out of
that.
