1 | Is God subject to change? | Bible general Archive 2 | John Reformed | 102278 | ||
"Nevertheless, the outcome of whether God would resort to plan A or plan B was up to the response of the people." Dear NC, Before we go jumping to conclusions, perhaps it would be wise to consider that God has no need to resort to anything at any time and that a perfect Planner has no need for alternative plans. If plan A is less than perfect and must be scrapped in favor of plan B, we might as well abandon our bibles and turn on the ballgame! How would we know that further changes may not be required? I know you believe that new creatures may chuck away their faith; What if they all did and Christ died in vain? Whose in control? man. God forbid it! John |

John, If only one Christian soul successfully entered heaven, would Christ's death been in vain? Of course not! Just because God created man with the ability to choose does not mean His plan is ever changing. God's plan is for all to be saved, but it is for man to uphold their end of the bargin. AO |

Matt 1:21 "She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins." Dear AO, If, indeed, it had been God's plan to save all men, then, God's plan was worse than imperfect, it has been a catastrophe! Out of the millions that existed prior to the flood, all perished in their sins, with only Noah and His little family being saved. Then instead of choosing all the peoples of the earth to be His chosen nation, He called a tiny band of people to be His, and (except for a few converts) the rest of the world died in their sins. Even among the nation of Israel, all perished in their sins except those who He called a "remnant". He even became a man, Jesus Christ, died on a cross and rose again from the dead. Surely that should have worked! But no! The vast majority of pagans and jews died in their sins. Well...2000 plus years later the community of the saints is still a small proportion of mankind and the rest are dieing in their sins. No my friend, Jesus Christ never fails to accomplish the will of His Father. He came to save His people from their sins and that is exactly what He did. John |
