Bro., it's in the same chapter where we read of The Lord teaching that repentance is not an action done by conscious effort, and we have no choice in doing it. It's used as the illustration of the point Jesus made in that same chapter.

Really? Can you quote that one? I'm missing where anyone was "seeking" for the Holy Ghost and couldn't get it. Most people...when they develop a religious creed or doctrine or dogma, have at least ONE verse to back it up. Could you, maybe, get just one? It'll help my understanding.

How do you play nice with someone who knows SO much of the bible but doesn't know what any of it means? It's like talking to Harold Camping. (yes, that was meant to be offensive, as well)
