[TruthTalk] Depraved minds

[ShieldsFamily]

how long one can be under conviction and refuse to repent without God writing that person off  That’s the Big Question!!! (I can think of a few that I wish He would have zapped a long time ago!)   What happens when God “writes them off”? Does He kill them, or just let them run around making other people unhappy for the rest of their natural lives?   Here’s another question: When God turns someone over to a reprobate mind, is there still a chance for them to repent? Could it be a way of trying to get them to repent, by experiencing the full judgment of their depravity?   A related question is this: Does God bring the lost under judgment (ie: experiencing the penalty of their rebellion in order to try to get them to repent), or just Believers?   Here’s another: Have you ever experienced God’s judgment? If so, how did you know it was His judgment? How did you repent? Were you glad it happened afterwards?   Izzy   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Terry Clifton Sent: Sunday, February 09, 2003 2:31 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: **Possible_Spam** Re: [TruthTalk] For the Record II/correction     I am not certain just what you are asking.  There is a time that God turns some over to a reprobate mind, and there is a time for some to fall from grace, but God's desire is for us to finish the race, endure to the end.  As to how long one can be under conviction and refuse to repent without God writing that person off, I have no idea, but I suspect that He is far more patient than me.   Terry     On Sun, 9 Feb 2003 09:57:30 -0700 [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Terry, re: 'under Grace', below, is grace [a] category on a timeline?
