1 | Wo hardend Pharoh's Heart | Rom 9:1 | bronx hulk | 91994 | ||
Hi Teresa, This is one of those tough to accept topics. When we really sit down and know what God does, it seems almost unfair. However, we need to understand that God is God and can do what He wills. I'm not saying that you don't have that opinion. But many people try to question what God does. 1 Corin 2:16. "But who hath known the mind of the LORD that he may instruct Him?" Romans 9 talks about how God deals with people as He wishes. Pharoh is specifically mentioned in verses 17 and 18. So my view according to what is written here is that God hardened Pharos heart so God could glorify Himself. It's a really scary thought when you think about it. God could have made me to be Pharoh, but He chose me to serve Him. I am truly blessed because of that! Sal |

Hi Sal, i noticed you used the first part of this verse to prove that we can't possibly understand God. How does the second part of that verse bare out this fact? 1 Corinthians 2:16 16 For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE LORD, THAT HE WILL INSTRUCT HIM? But we have the mind of Christ. God bless |

Amen, Sorry I left that out. I don't usually do stuff like that. We have the mind of Christ now so that we can understand things with a spiritual mind. Notice I didn't say we couldn't understand God, but I said we shouldn't question what He does. We can get understandings on most things, but some things we will not. Like it says in 1 corin 13:12, for now we see through a glass darkly, but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. Before, under the law, they were just following the law without understanding. Now we can understand. The point I was trying to make is that we still cannot Instruct the Lord. Or question His motives. Did I clear that up a little? Thanks for pointing that out to me. The last thing I would ever want to do is mislead someone, even if it is by accident. If you still don't understand where I'm coming from, let me know and I will try to explain it better. God Bless, Sal |
