Regeneration precedes Faith. This is vital to understand in the Christian faith.Some have a more Pelagian view of salvation ,unfortunately.
You may prefer the idea of original sin and no free will, others will disagree. Regardless of whatever belief you’ve been taught to believe in, there’s always doubt. None of us know for sure if we are correct.
I personally don’t believe in any good, I don’t believe there has been a Roman census requiring people to return to their place of birth. I don’t believe there was a global flood (I will happily believe there was a large flood in the river basins around mount Ararat). But I might be wrong, just as bpg might be wrong and
Pelagius might be wrong
