What does the Bible say about unconverted men reacting to the Gospel?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible illustrates that unconverted men often react negatively to the Gospel, as seen in Matthew 11:16-24.

In Matthew 11:16-24, Jesus addresses the unreasonableness of the Jewish nation in their rejection of both John the Baptist and Himself. Despite the different approaches of these messengers from God, they found fault regardless of the message or the manner of life presented. This reflects the broader condition of unconverted men who, when faced with the Gospel, often react with skepticism and criticism. The natural man, as stated in Romans 8:7 and 1 Corinthians 2:14, is inherently hostile towards God and incapable of accepting spiritual truths, indicating that this negative response is not a new phenomenon but part of human nature.
