Bible Question:
in NIV: Whatever exists has already been named, and what man is has been known; no man can contend with one who is stronger than he. in NLT: Everything has already been decided. It was known long ago what each person would be. So there’s no use arguing with God about your destiny. does this mean that God controls everything? Does he know what is going to happen and let it fall into place that way? Do we have any say in our own destiny? Can we change the future? what does this verse even tell us about the character of God? please do not answer if you are unsure. |
Bible Answer: I also wanted to add this scripture; John 5:24, I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life. Verse 25: I tell you the truth, a time is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live. I have to get off the internet now, but I hope that by reading this you will know that God desires a personal relationship with you and is tugging at your heart for you to drop to your knees and accept this free gift of salvation, He will come to you and give you the holy spirit He will forgive you, He will be with you eternally and all you need is belief and faith in what he has done and what he will do for you, Love you in Christ Jesus, Dragonflyprincess |
