“‘Well, I didn’t. He accepted me.”
No no no…I mean, when were you saved?
“Yesterday. Today. And tomorrow.”
Umm…you’re still not getting it…when did you become a Christian?
“At my baptism…when I was an infant.”
But babies cannot accept Christ!
“Now, you’re starting to get it.”

Where in the New Testament does it say that one needs to accept Jesus as his or her personal Savior?
Where does it say in the New Testament that we have to make our decision for Christ?
Where in the New Testament does it say that we have “free will” to choose God?
I have been told these things numerous times by Evangelicals but as yet no one has been able to show me biblical texts that say those things. I have, though, seen many passages that state the opposite is true.
Am I missing something? (It wouldn’t be the first time…today even!)
