1 | Who Carried Jesus' Cross? | John 19:17 | Agent Archer | 128378 | ||
Hank, thanks for helping me to see this verse more clearly. When I first saw John 19:17, I thought it was saying that Jesus bore His cross to Golgotha, but on closer examination I realize that it is saying they took Him there and as He started out He bore His own cross, but not nescisarily(sp) to His final destination. I just finished reading John and Ive noticed that since it was the last gospel written, John included some details that the other gospel writers left out like Jesus actually bore His cross for a time before Simon assisted Him. | ||||||

4 | Predestination vs free will--a thought.. | Bible general Archive 1 | Agent Archer | 101326 | ||
Actually, now that I have read more, I have seen other people who share the same viewpoint as me. My wording might be confusing, but I believe what Norrie and Makairos where saying about being a plain ol Christian. If either of you see anything that is different from what you posted about in the "Whats is Calvin and Armawhattheheckitis" thread then forget it. I just couldnt find the right words and I couldnt agree more with what you said. Thank you for your help, even though you didnt know you helped me :) Blessings, Ian |

6 | Predestination vs free will--a thought.. | Bible general Archive 1 | Agent Archer | 101266 | ||
I was confused about this topic for awhile. One day this just popped into my head and I havent been confused since. I dont know if it was from God or just my mind trying to make this concept more graspable (is this a word :)) and I dont know if there is any scripture to back it up. Well, I understand God knows all. I just thought (or was told as I said I dont know) that mabey God knows both paths we could take when we are given a choice to make, and knows what effect what ever choice we make would have on us. This might sound dumb, but I think God MIGHT (if this is incorrect please let me know) hide from himself what ever path we take, but is never surprised at the one we do choose. I think if He wants to, then sometimes He looks into the future and sees what one we choose, so He can intervene. Although more often than not, I think he does this. If Im wrong, please tell me, as I dont want to believe lies. Its just the whole "predestination vs. free will" is a confusing topic for me and I try no to think of it. The thoughts you guys, and most people I have ever heard from, sound confusing to me. It makes it sound like we are puppets and dont have ANY control over what we do. Basicly I dont think our lives are all planned like a script for a puppet show (although I do believe that some parts, if not most are) and I dont think some of us are ment to go to hell. I dont know if I accuratley discribed my thoughts, and if you have any questions about them please ask. Also, if these sound like the beliefs of any cult, just let me know as Im not a member of a cult and dont want to share any false beliefs. I'm only 13 and am open to other thoughts, as long as you can truely say Im wrong, I wont find it disrespectful and will gladly listen to what you say. Sorry I dont have any scripture, but God does give people insite, even if this isnt a case, right? (I know this breaks the first rule it states before posting, but I had to ask/share) Blessings, Ian |
