Bible Question: IF GOD KNEW WHO WAS GOING TO BE SAVED AND SELECTED THEM IN ETERNITY PAST UNTO SALVATION THEN WHY DO WE NEED TO EVANGALIZE? |
Bible Answer: Well, first of all - please try not to use capitals when you write - in "computerlanguage" that means screaming. God is not limited by time. In one way, we can say that God looks at the time from "outside" - as a paralell we can make a likness to when we look on a timeline, we see what has happened, and we can see it all at the same time. Our future is like an open book to God, and he sees what will happen. But we are not supposed to be concerned about that, because if we think that God will save them that are "predestinated" - because then God won't have possibility to save them. God knows what will happen, and he also knows if i will sit still on my back and do nothing - and even though he knows it - he does not like it. |
