My question is in light of passages in Acts where the unbelievers ask what they must do. The response is for them to repent and believe. Then they do. So my questions are:
1) is there a lot of time between regeneration and faith? I thought that faith happened immediately after regeneration.
2) if there is no time between regeneration and faith, then it seems people in Acts are desiring God before they are regenerated. Therefore is man able to desire salvation with pure motives before regeneration?
Obviously no, (right?) I’m not sure how to answer this argument I received from someone.
