The Illustration of the Patriarch

Written By Ricardo McGee

St John 6:44

Only those whom the Father who sent Me attracts can approach Me... The reference is from the book of John, chapter 6, verse 44.

Upon the commencement of God's initiation to attract me towards Himself, the issue of my volition arises promptly. Will I respond favorably to the truth that God has disclosed? Will I approach Him? Engaging in discussions or contemplations about spiritual subjects when summoned by God is deemed inappropriate and insulting towards Him. When God communicates, refrain from engaging in discussions with others in order to deliberate on how you should respond (see to Galatians 1:15-16). Belief is not derived from cerebral deliberation, but rather from an intentional act of my will, in which I consciously devote myself. Will I wholeheartedly dedicate myself to God and obediently follow His instructions? If I choose to do so, I shall discover that I am firmly rooted in reality, just like God's throne.

When delivering the gospel, consistently emphasize the aspect of volition. Belief is contingent upon the volition to believe. To achieve the desired outcome, it is necessary to relinquish one's personal volition, rather than succumbing to a compelling or influential reasoning. I must consciously and intentionally take a step forward, relying on my belief in God and His absolute truth. I must not rely on my own accomplishments, but rather solely on God. Relying solely on my own cognitive comprehension poses an obstacle to achieving full reliance on God. I must possess the readiness to disregard and abandon my emotions. I am compelled to have a strong want to believe. However, achieving this goal is impossible without my resolute and vigorous endeavor to detach myself from my previous perspectives. I must fully submit myself to God.

Every individual possesses the inherent capacity to extend their reach beyond their current limitations. However, it is the divine entity that attracts me, and my connection with Him mostly stems from an internal, subjective experience rather than a rational one. I entered the relationship by divine intervention and my personal choice to have faith. Subsequently, I have a discerning comprehension and insight into the marvel of the metamorphosis in my existence.
