MDJ, so does belief (believer) require a decision by us? Do we choose God or does God choose us? If you are an infant of a Catholic or Lutheran does someone (your parents) need to choose to have you baptized? If you are a Baptist do you have to decide to “open your eyes” as an adult? If we have to open our own eyes are we then choosing independent of God. If so, God doesn’t know all things.
