Summary

Many people do not seem as if they are able to hear and willingly come to the well meant offer of the gospel, but why? Is it because they were born helpless, hopeless and rejected from eternity past by their Maker, or is it because they have become hardened over time after rejecting the loving and gracious gift of their benevolent Father?

Dr. Flowers not only answers this question, but also provides a link for more resources and a great endorsement for furthering your education:
