Well then.....mind explaining how the people choose to do a dang thing in that passage? Enlighten me, Oh Great One.

In a nutshell, the minute you turn to Christ, you are regenerated by the Holy Spirit; you are indwelt and baptized by the Holy Spirit; you are put in the body of believers. “In that day,” God says, “I’ll put My Spirit within you.”

Now why don't you run along and read the last few chaptures of JOB.

Again, God is doing it all.....

In that day refers to when God does what he is saying he will do.

I like this one.

Gird up thy loins now like a man:
I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
Wilt thou even annul my judgment?
Wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be justified?
Or hast thou an arm like God?
And canst thou thunder with a voice like him?
Deck thyself now with excellency and dignity; And array thyself with honor and majesty.
Pour forth the overflowings of thine anger;
And look upon every one that is proud, and abase him.
Look on every one that is proud,
[and] bring him low;
And tread down the wicked where they stand.
Hide them in the dust together;
Bind their faces in the hidden [place].
Then will I also confess of thee That thine own right hand can save thee.

“In that day,” God says, “I’ll put My Spirit within you.”...and he does and we are converted...
