God made us as he is but not as high as he is.God can see we caN see, God can hear like he made us to hear.God can tast as we can tast.God has a free will as he gave us a free will.He let Adam and eve have there own free will.Just as he does us.Never did he choice hell for noone but Satan.And in 1 tim2:4 you see..(who well have all men to be saved...)also (2 peter 3:9)People takes the scripture (Eph.1:4,5) and said God all ready knows he choice from the beganing.Thats not what was said in this verse.Paul was talking to christian people telling them that God has chosen us all from the world to be saved not just them but every soul a live.

You wrote: "God has a free will as he gave us a free will.He let Adam and eve have there own free will.Just as he does us." What Scripture says that we have a free will? Perhaps that is "man's teaching." You wrote: "People takes the scripture (Eph.1:4,5) and said God all ready knows he choice from the beganing.Thats not what was said in this verse.Paul was talking to christian people telling them that God has chosen us all from the world to be saved not just them but every soul a live." "just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will," --Ephesians 1:4-5 God chose EVERYONE (I don't see how that is "choosing," myself)? EVERYONE will be holy and blameless before Him? He predestined EVERYONE to adoption as sons? And you say that an omniscient God doesn't "all ready knows he choice from the beganing"? Dangerous theological ground there. You also wrote: "I pray you put a side that which you have been tought by man" I really wish this statement would be banned from churches. Every time you want to question any teaching whatsoever, just play the "man's teaching" card and watch every mouth close for fear of being classified as "spiritually dead." Yes, everything that isn't taught by my church or my preacher (oops...MEN!) is by its very nature "man's teaching." Put it away! Agree with me! The Holy Ghost is on my side, after all! I can feel it. You can too, CAN'T YOU?!? --Joe! |

Yes in deed God knows all,But to say God chose some and not some.Would be saying,You can be saved and not your friend.Prehaps I missed what you are telling me.The key to Salvation is to understand God is not going to make you are I do anything.(Acts 2:21)tells us..."Whosoever(Anyone) call on the Name of the Lord shall be saved."That means God did not pick who would be saved.He leaves that to us.Does God Know?I would think so,for he knows the very thought of the heart.So indeed he does know who well be saved.But did he pick out a few and say the rest cant be because in the beganing he chose?That my friend is not Bible.Bible is he wishes us all to be saved and we do have the free will to decide reather we do or reather we dont.Its on us to beleave not God.(2 pet.3:9) tells us,"Not willing that any will perish."!He wants us all,but well we all be there?I would never say God does not NO ALL,Because he is all knowing!God Bless!! | ||||||

You wrote: "But to say God chose some and not some.Would be saying,You can be saved and not your friend." No it doesn't. It is saying that God will save those whom He will. He can save me and has done so. He can save my friend, but He may not. Those whom he has predestined will come to Christ. Those whom He has not will continue to reject Him. There is no one who really wants to be saved to whom God says, "no." You wrote: '"Whosoever(Anyone) call on the Name of the Lord shall be saved."That means God did not pick who would be saved.' No it doesn't. It means exactly what it says: all those who embrace Jesus Christ as Savior will be saved. It says nothing about who will trust in Christ, who is morally capable of trusting in Christ, or whom God has or has not chosen for salvation. --Joe! |
