Bible Question: Thanks for everybody's response. If I have this right, when someone says that some are predestined and some are not. What you are saying is that God has known from the beginning who would chose to follow him and who would not. What I had a problem with is some of the post that eluded that there are some that are not capable of chosing Christ even if they wanted to. I may be wrong but, I have trouble beleiveing that God created the human race with some people not having an option to turn to him. Any thoughts? I hope I am not missing the boat completly on this one. |
Bible Answer: Greetings Richard1! Please see the threads written under Romans 5:6 and 1 John 2:2.. I believe in what can be described as an "Arminian" perspective on this issue, and I have had the exact train of thought on this issue as your post reflects. Please see these two threads as well as others to gather more on this divisive debate that has resurfaced more times than I care to remember at this Forum. Blessings to you, Makarios |
