i believe no one seeks God before regeneration.

I believe in the doctrines of grace and I wholeheartedly embrace the doctrine of radical corruption of the entire human race. I don't believe that people "seek God." The Scriptures declare:

Romans 3:11 THERE IS NONE WHO SEEKS FOR GOD

I agree with RC Sproul: "We do not 'find' God as a result of our search for him. We are found by him. the search for God does not end in conversion; it begins at conversion. It is the converted person who genuinely and sincerely seeks after God. Jonathan Edwards remarked that seeking after God is the main business of the Christian life" (What is Reformed Theology, 125).

Again, I believe the Scriptures: Romans 3:11 THERE IS NONE WHO SEEKS FOR GOD.
