It is by Grace that We Even Have the Wisdom to Believe
God knows and foresees our every thought, but He does not choose to save us because He peered into the future to see if there were any people who, in themselves, had virtuous thoughts, were more wise, humble or more spiritually discerning than others. No, being spiritually blind and hardened by nature, it is by grace alone in Christ that we even have the wisdom, discernment, humility, good thoughts or sound judgement to believe and embrace Christ (Deut 30:6, Ezek 36:26, John 5:21, 6:37, 63, 65; 1 Cor. 1:29-31, 2:12-14; 1 Cor 4:7)
