The Freedom of Faith

To be human Man’s response to Eternal God by faith must be free Therefore nobody is to be forced to embrace the faith against his will The act of faith is on its very nature a free act Eternal God calls men to serve Him in spirit and in truth Consequently They are bound to him in conscience But not coerced This fact received its fullest manifestation in Father Christ Jesus Indeed Father Christ invited people to faith and conversion But never coerced them For he bore witness to the truth but refused to use force To impose it on those who spoke against it His kingdom Grows by the love with which Father Christ Lifted up on the cross Draws men to Himself 1252015
