Received with joyMaking up something that doesn’t exist in God’s word is certainly not correct, nor will it ever be correct.
Those by the wayside are the ones who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. But the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who believe for a while and in time of temptation fall away. Luke 8:12-13
- lest they should believe and be saved.
How is it Jesus said those who believe are saved, but in the next verse you make up some other believing (emotional) that isn’t in the text?

These people did in fact believe, thus fulfilling the requirement for salvation that Jesus Christ Himself said fulfilled the requirement for salvation.
Yet you come along and over rule what Jesus said, by inserting a false narrative that is not mentioned in the text.
Where is emotional believing mentioned in this text?
