Subject: How does foreknowledge preclude free? |
Bible Note: "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." "God is looking for such ones to worship him with spirit and truth." "Sanctify them by means of the truth; your word is truth." "Draw close to God, and he will draw close to you." Without the truth, it is impossible to draw close to God. John said: "This is love for God: to obey his commands. And his commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith." (1 John 5:3,4) The reason professed Christians will not follow such commands as "to be no part of the world" is because they do not know God and his purposes, thus they lack the necessary faith. Consequently, He will not give them his spirit vital to being able to conquer this world under Satan's rulership. (Hebrews 11:6; James 1:7,8) People that claim to have total faith in God pick up arms when prophesied wars and lawlessness occur, killing their brother for whom Christ died. (Compare Matt 24:6;1 John 3:9-12;4:20) Let's agree to put this on the "back burner." How about discussing something less "heady." I'll post a question at Rev 12:7. Hope to hear from you there! |
