The natural man cant and doesn't have the freewill ability to receive and understand any spiritual matters. 1 Cor 2:14
But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
Amen, all men by nature [in the flesh / not born again] are in spiritual darkness and void of understanding, regardless of how religious they may appear to be. For all their works, including the exercising of their imaginary freewill Dan. 4:35, are likened to filthy rags in God's Sight Is. 64:6.
John 1:5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
Is. 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.
