John, Rom 9:14-16 14What shall we say then? There is no injustice with God, is there? May it never be! 15For He says to Moses, "I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion." 16So then it does not depend on the man who wills or the man who runs, but on God who has mercy. NAS Some people say this passage speaks of man's inability to change the master plan of God, and that His plan is for man to chose Him. Mankind can not change the plan, but they can change their role in it. Does that make salvation centered on man or God? AO |

AO, How can you say that? You say that Mankind cannot change the plan, but, you can change your role in it?? What?? If you are put in His plan you do have a role in it! If you take yourself out, you change His master plan, because your name is written on the list to begin with. If God has cast you or has changed your heart of stone to a heart of flesh (Ezek 36:26-27) and helps you to see His wonderous plan for you why would you go against it? Yes salvation is of the Lord (Jonah 2:9) It is centered on HIM! He will build His church regardless. Sola Scriptura Mike |

Mike, Say someone works for a company whose "master plan" is to make a profit. That person can either decide to do good work and benefit or do shoddy work and suffer the consequences. Either way the company's master plan has stayed the same. They are still there to make a profit. Additionally, why would this employee, who knows that his company's motives are pure and that his work there supports himself and his family, fail to live up to his end of the employment contract? Is it not within the employee's scope of responsibility to serve his employer as his employer directs? Why does the employee decide to jeopardize his own welfare? Why would God require anything less for His creation? AO |

God’s Master Plan God’s Master Plan includes ALL, the just and the unjust. His master plan my be that one person dose one thing and only one thing. That person’s whole life is only preparation for that one thing. And after that one thing that person fades into the background of life. Consider the boy with the sack lunch. All he knew that morning was he was going out and needed a lunch jest like any other day. But he brought it to the Lord and gave it to him. And the Lord fed the whole group. Out of all the other people that was their and all the other sack lunches God had in his master plan that that one boy give his lunch away. We have free will but God knows all the choices that we will make, and it is in his Master Plain. To say that we can upset his master plain is to underestimate God. |
