Bible Note: Dear Pastor Beja, The problem that arises is that thinking of the chronology of the implementation can put a heterodox spin on the purpose. The same thing can happen relative to the means that God uses. The plan, the chronology, and the means must be thought of simultaneously to maintain a doctrinally sound hermeneutic. I am persuaded that the Teleological Supralapsarian Scheme is in the best keeping with what and how the Scriptures reveal God's eternal purpose, progressive revelation, and its final consummation. This puts me at odds with Michael Horton, J. I. Packer and others. I'll live with that for now until I am persuaded otherwise. Relative the decrees themselves I deem them to be eternal (Ephesians 1:4), wise (Psalm 104:24; Romans 11:13), free (Isaiah 40:13-14), and absolute/unconditional (2 Thessalonians 2:13; Isaiah 46:10).
