Bible Note: "I have been trying to figure this one out for close to 47 years now, CDBJ" You're in good company..theologians have been trying to figure it out for millenia. For me, I believe in both because both are clearly taught in Scripture. Do I understand it? No! But then I don't understand the Trinity either, but I believe it! I illustrate it with railroads tracks..you need two to run your train on and they must stay parallel. Our theological train needs two tracks to run on: God's sovereignty and man's free will. Emphasize one over the other and you'll crash! If we had infinite knowledge like God, we'd have no problem with it. I leave it at that! |
