It's the work of the Holy Spirit (not rational thinking)

Lately, I've been hearing a lot of this from fellow Christians.

My prompt response is: "Yes, it is the work of the Holy Spirit, not by reasoning, NOR BY LOVE!"

The last phrase generally comes unexpected to them. They sometimes get tongue tied hearing it.

If they take no reaction to my response, then it is strange, it is likely they did not hear my last phrase. If they had already agreed with it, I wonder how they imagine the Holy Spirit moves one to conversion. By miracles? They must be dreaming then.

If they take my response as hostile/incorrect, is not theirs hostile/incorrect at first?

But they are Christians! Why would I treat them so? Are they not doing the same thing in the first place?

Problem solved.
