And there is NOTHING 'anti-scriptural' about that! Nothing at all. But you, no
doubt, will continue to insist it is, most probably because as SO often, you
insist on the intellectual dishonesty by applying your own false definition of
'regeneration' to make a straw-man argument.

Good for you. But you are not the only reader in the NG. You must take into
account the effect on the other readers too.

So what? 'Feelings' are a very poor guide. A man who trusts his own unreliable
feelings is very far from the saving doctrine of the Trinity, which is far, far
more than an intellectual cognition.

You miss the point. I don't think it is possible at all. Not, at least, until he
stops his brazen dishonesty. But if it is possible at all, then it can ONLY be
done by focusing on his behavior, since it is his behavior that reveals his
_+real+_ barriers to embracing the life-saving dogma of the Trinity.

You didn't look up the definition on the website I gave you, did you?
