Nowhere does the Bible say that our natural abilities need to broken. What does that mean anyway? This error was in keeping with the LR's flawed transformation model, which said that magically by the Spirit our nature is being changed, by radiation or while we are sleeping or something.
That is not what happens. Yes, breaking is needed. But it is
US that needs to be broken, not our abilities or nature. Our selves, our egos, our wills, are broken by our coming to know through various experiences that we need God in everything, that he is trustworthy, and that obedience to him is the wisest course. This is breaking. This is transformation.
Something without consciousness or will does not need to be broken. Certainly our abilities have no such things, so you are correct.
