Man's Total Inability **

Many wars have been waged over the understanding of a sinner's depravity and spiritual inability — or ability! Some have taught varying degrees of incompetence on the part of Adam's fallen race; others have placed almost entire freedom to will and to perform spiritual acts within the ability of lost sinners.

Hear this message as "the old prophet of God" deals with the challenging reality that no natural man can in any sense respond to God or even prepare himself to make a positive response to his Creator. Man in nature needs God's quickening grace at the outset of his spiritual life — and all the way through. The sinner cannot even comprehend the Scriptures ("the things of the Spirit of God") until God touches his heart with Divine discernment (Read 1 Cor. 2:14).
