He allows you to choose Him, or decline Him. You are not born saved, nor forced. Sorry disagree..I was chosen. All part of God’s purpose and plan for my life. i didn’t say he forced.

We have all been chosen by God. But He allows us to choose our own destiny, to be saved or not; to choose Him or not. If you have not chosen to accept the gift, the instructions are in Romans. (ESV) Romans 10:9-10 9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.

Please don’t speak for me, you weren’t there when I was saved. my heart was open and received the Holy Spirit , my will never came into it.

You must choose the gift to receive it. Did God give us freewill? Does freewill exist in the Bible? Can I force you to accept a gift of chocolate candy against your will?
