John 6:40 "And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who
sees
the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise
him
up at the last day." (NKJV)
Again, Scripture contradicts Ethan's order.
Ethan, God says: "believes in Him may have everlasting life."
Let's again pervert scripture to make it fit Ethan's order of regeneration
first.
And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who has everlasting
life (i.e., been regenerated) may see the Son and believe in Him; and I
will
raise him up at the last day (salvation).
