David writes:
The way I see it, no matter how hard someone tries to have faith in a lie,
with the kind of faith that Jesus is talking about in the passages above, he
cannot do it. No matter how hard he tries, there will always be some
reservation in his spirit. On the other hand, when we perceive with
conviction and assurance a truth, and we achieve absolute confidence in it,
we can be sure that such a truth is infallible and can never be wrong. For
example, when we see that Jesus is our Lord and Messiah with absolute
conviction, we can be sure that there is no possibility that this viewpoint
is wrong. It is impossible for such a viewpoint to be wrong.

You base the notion of infallibility on the feeling or conviction of assurance. You have criticized me several times in the past, David, for speaking as if I could not be wrong. And now, it turns out that such conviction is a sure sign that I am right !!!
You must know that I do not think I am wrong in anything that I share. That is assurance. But my intelliect knows that I am not right about all that I believe. That is fact in wating.
