1 John 3:23
And this is His commandement: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment.

**Then it really seems to me that it could very well boil down to whether or not we "will" choose to believe the word, not whether or not we "can" or are "able" believe it.

With love in Christ, Daniel
