He may be a Roman Catholic and changed his following a lot but that is his journey. You can take inspiration from someone else's Journey, but why would your judgement of their Journey apply to your belief and your own Journey so heavily? You place too much of a task and weight on this one man and forget he is fallible like the rest of us; doesn't mean he doesn't have some knowledge or understanding of the truth that no one else has and you can learn! Everyone is blind to a certain extent and I would argue he is not leading people he is speaking to them and sharing his insight and understanding relative to the text. Instead, place it in Jesus for that is what his purpose was. Think for yourself and speak for yourself and your own interpretation of belief instead of someone's else's; just to attempt to prove or say they are false...

So many questions can be answered correctly if one knows the character of God as well as the word. Often times the character of God can reveal what the word doesn't say explicitly.

I have debated on this topic for more than 15 yrs. I went to a Christian college and predestination was THE theological view. I wrote several thesis on this matter. One of my simple arguments has been, is, and will be the fact that in the Bible, the word IF is over 1600 times (Obviously not all are used by God) yet, if we are pre destined and I do not have a say, the word IF should not be used by Gods PERIOD. If we are predestined, God cannot say "If you obey", "If you love me", "if you follow by decrees and commands". If is a CHOICE. I have the choice of doing or not doing something.

@@chrisneeds6125 soil? What you are not understanding is that when something is IRRESISTIBLE, when something is PREDETERMINED there is no CHOICE. It does not matter if it seems as "an act of benevolence" (turning what is bad to good) which REGARDLESS, that change from a bad heart to a good heart has NOTHING to do with you. That bad heart cannot resist turning into a good heart therefore the use of terms that imply an option, a possibility, should not exist. Under predestination the only terms that fit are "this is what is going to happen", "this is what will happen" "you will obey" or "you will not". Basically there is no struggle. There is no battle. I am exactly what in his sovereignty he wants me to be. I believe as much as he wants me to. I pray for as long as he wants me to. I minister as he programmed me to. I sin as he directs me to, I harm and destroy because he commanded me to. There is NOTHING that I can do that is not by his design. He hates and loves without cause and effect.

@@chrisneeds6125 as Paul claims in Romans 8. For those he FOREKNEW, he PREDESTINED to be CONFORMED to the image of JESUS. the key is not that WE are predestined, the key to that verse is that the PATH, the PLAN, the way (through and by Jesus, to become like Jesus) to be transformed has been set. Meaning, the plan of salvation. Even more than that, it begins with FOREKNOWLEDGE. As in the case of Esau. He was rejected/hated by God before his birth (as God proclaimed) because he KNEW that Esau was going to reject God and would never truly care about his birth rights (which were a command instituted by God and were very important). Foreknowledge and predestination are 2 different things. I can already know what u will do but I am.not direction it, I'm not the one making u. Actually, go to Genesis 4. God reasons with Cain (under predestination and our inability to choose) and tells him, "hey, if you did this the right way, wouldn't I accept it"? And then tells him that sin is near him, tempting him but that he can resist it. Under the notion of everything being pre ordained, how does that make sense??? See, he is not telling Cain, u have a bad heart and u will do what u were meant to do. He tells him U KNOW what is right and if you did it I would accept you. Evil is around you but you CAN resist it. Those are all OPTIONS, CHOICE. Calvinism is just a philosophical interpretation and it doesn't fit scripture. It only fits if forced arbitrarily.

Ever since the conversion of Saul in Acts 9 when the resurrected Lord Jesus appeared to him on the road to Damascus, the gospel of grace (not of works) is what saves us today, not the Kingdom gospel (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).

It’s actually easy to know how God knows the future. The Bible tells us - Isaiah 46: 10 I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, ‘My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.’

@@edwardprokopchuk3264 Falsehood of Gap theory from pulpits & podiums Like many theories that emanated from some theological seminaries about big bang, billions of years, evolution, globe earth etc gap theory is yet another attempt to cast doubt on the Creation narrative of the Word of God. Prologue : Genesis 1:1 > In "the Beginning" God created the Heaven and the Earth. Epilogue: Genesis 1:2 > [End] And the Earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Logically, HE could reveal the End in Genesis 1:2 only after revealing the Beginning in Genesis 1:1. Genesis 1:1 & Genesis 1:2 are just book ends of History (HisStory). Else God lied when HE stated in Isaiah 46:9-10 > ... I am God, and there is none like me, "Declaring the End from the Beginning", and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all MY pleasure: How come preachers ignore the fact that Heaven (singular) too was created on the first day and only the earth becomes void and without form at the end of time (before eternity to come). In the Book of Job [the timing of the gathering Job 14:12-14 > So "man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more", they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep. O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me! If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, "till my change come"], it is made clear that earth, heavens (first and second) pass away ; third Heaven is intact and there is no separation between Heaven and New Earth in eternity to come, when God dwells with Believers on the New Earth - that's why Jacob's dream has angels descending and ascending etc . Genesis 28:21 > And he (Jacob) dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the Earth, and the top of it reached to Heaven; and behold, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. Note - Only angels (not believers in eternity to come) descending and ascending, because the Heaven is the Lord's. Psalm 115:16 > The Heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord's: but the Earth hath HE given to the children of men. Man has itching hears and like to run with fables etc in the age of misinformation and disinformation. 2 Timothy 4:3-4 > For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables A certain number of the angels that followed Lucifer, and the created gods (referred to in Psalm 82: 1-7) had physical union with the daughters of men after they left their first habitation (in Heaven around the throne of God). This has happened both before and after the universal flood in the days of Noah. Jude 1:6 > And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, HE hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. Revelation 12: 3-4 > And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great "red dragon" [Satan nee Lucifer], having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars [angels] of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: There is this strange teaching among many preachers that "there was rebellion in Heaven" then leading to false theories like Gap theory. The rebellion was infact on Earth when Lucifer said in his heart that he would ascend in to Heaven and exalt his throne above the stars [in the firmament] of God] ... and be like the Most High. Why would Lucifer want to ascend into Heaven if he was already there when he said those things in his heart ? Because, he was on Earth when those thoughts arose in his heart. Besides, this present earth is referred to as the First Earth in Revelation 21:1 ; thus there could not be any earth before the First Earth, that could become void and without form. Revelation 21:1 > And I saw a new heaven and a new earth:. and the "First Earth" were passed away; Deuteronomy 32:8-9 > When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when HE separated the sons of Adam, HE set the bounds of the people according to the number of the Heavenly assembly [per Dead Sea scrolls]. For the Lord's portion is HIS people; Jacob (Israel) is the lot of HIS inheritance. Psalm 82:1-7 > God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; HE judgeth among the gods... I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. But ye shall die like men,... Thus, the gods were assigned to the nations while God's inheritance was Israel. Archangels Michael and Gabriel are atleast two of the angels that deal with Israel and are for the Jews. The angels that remained faithful to God [unlike those mentioned in Jude 1:6] are also referred to as "saints" who came down with the Lord on mount Paran to give the law to the children of Israel. Read Deuteronomy 33:1-2 > And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death. And he (Moses) said, The Lord came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them (children of Israel); HE shined forth from mount Paran, and HE came with ten thousands of "saints" [referring to holy angels] : from HIS right hand went a fiery law for them (children of Israel). So when the Bible mentions God's futuristic second coming with His armies in Revelation 19 at the end of the age of grace, it is referring to faithful angels [not believers among mankind] who follow Him. Revelation 19:13-16 > And He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and HIs name is called The Word of God. And the armies which were in Heaven followed Him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean ... And He hath on His vesture and on His thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords. The only true timeline relevant for all believers is based on the genealogy from Adam onwards ... approx 5948 years (in 2023 AD) according to the Dead Sea Scrolls - watch Ken Johnson on KZread - kzread.info4hh_VTFWLEs?feature=share God has before HE created the Heaven and the Earth, set the times for wrapping all things up. There is nothing that will alter HIS plan and purpose. For we know that all things were created for HIS pleasure. Shalom From a gentile believer in Christ Seeking truth in the Word of God

I struggled with this question for years. Without knowing what Sam will say here, I've arrived at a conclusion and it's this. God truly wants all of us to be saved but he will also respect the free will He gave us at the same time. So He gives us every opportunity to choose Him, to return the great love He has by obeying Him and worship Him alone. God is also not bound by time and space so even before Creation, he can see from beginning till the end, including all our choices to His opportunities. He thus knows who will be saved and who will not and those who will not make it will have their choices to blame, not God. After all, haven't we all been reminded and warned often enough? Every generation comes with prophets and evangelists. The Holy Mother herself has appeared many times to warn and lead us back to her Son. Yet many stubbornly disbelieve. Eternity is at stake, make no mistake. Repent now and turn back to God while you can!

Romans 11:32 For God has bound everyone over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all ????

I think Jesus analogy of people bearing fruit, means we have choice.

No choice in salvation. This is clear

This guy is a wolf in sheep's clothes, he is very devious in bringing brothers and sisters saved by grace through faith back to the law. He may no longer be a Calvinist, but surely he didn't forget to back load works as a condition for salvation or it's proof, calling willy nilly Christians who rely on the work of Christ solely "false Christians". He is more dangerous than the Muslims he so vehemently opposes in his debates.

We are saved by grace but the law was never kept why we needed Jesus. The law is still a Guide. If we believe ,we love, we surrender. In surrender is obedience....obedience to what....? The devil is a believer so am I. I love my Father, faith without works is dead. I have faith, love is a verb. So with that. Are you a Christian who walks in love? Do you obey the law of Christ? Read the word for yourself and ask for guidance. Salvation does require something. Belief, is that not a work.?

What happened to Peter’s “free will” to NOT deny Christ? He (Peter) was told ahead of time that he will deny Christ three times and STILL didn’t have “free will” not to deny Him.

I think the important thing is to obey God and his laws, accept Jesus as your savior and seek the kingdom of heaven. There are so many interpretations and as you said, we'd never be able to reconcile. Maybe it's not for us to reconcile but instead it's our job as Christians to live by his name and not worry about such questions. I too am struggling with my Calvinist faith.

Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to you his truth not man. I use 3 layers to process anything said about scripture. I hear then use common sense in case it's crazy teaching then process and ask God what to get from it. Sometimes it's nothing.

My basic problem with Calvinism is that for God to know anything He has to determine everything. God knows everything because He is not limited in knowledge. There’s no “types” of knowledge or limited knowledge it’s complete knowledge of all events, hence He knows the beginning middle and end perfectly. Determination makes God’s knowledge limited to what He has created. It also makes God seem like a divine computer programmer. A God that has determined everything doesn’t need to act on behave of the creation as He has already determined the outcome. The only prayer is for thy will be done. The natural result would be to embrace a Deist faith.

We have a choice to make maybe some haven't had a choice like the Pharaoh of Egypt and Judas but we can choose life through faith in Jesus.

2Corinthians 10:4 NLT - We use God’s mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments. Galatians 5:10 NLT - I am trusting the Lord to keep you from believing false teachings. God will judge that person, whoever he is, who has been confusing you.

Regarding John 3:5, it is clear that Jesus is rebuking Nicodemus for not understanding, despite his respected position as "Israel's teacher." This suggests the importance of referring to the Old Testament, such as Ezekiel 36:25-27, to understand Jesus' intentions, which appear to be unrelated to water baptism.

Why would Lucifer want to ascend into Heaven if he was already there when he said those things in his heart ? Because, he was on Earth when those thoughts arose in his heart.

I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. But ye shall die like men,... Thus, the gods were assigned to the nations while God's inheritance was Israel. Archangels Michael and Gabriel are atleast two of the angels that deal with Israel and are for the Jews. The angels that remained faithful to God [unlike those mentioned in Jude 1:6] are also referred to as "saints" who came down with the Lord on mount Paran to give the law to the children of Israel.

My only verse to counter the predestination argument is: “Then Jesus replied, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!” - John 6:70 In Gods foreknowledge he knew he was a devil at the beginning.

Yes, God predestined some for salvation, others for his wrath, but is also true that GOD SO LOVED The WORLD…and that is an invitation to all people to believe that Jesus Christ die to pay for our sins. Accepting or Rejecting is A HUMAN CHOICE.

@@noybiznatch Obvious isn't it that the those who believed in His name did not resist, indeed they were drawn to God by God, they couldn't save themselves, God had to draw them. Like Paul who was such an enemy...God set His sights on him and broke his resistance by opening his eyes to the truth. 'All that the Father gives me WILL come to me'...not maybe will come and the word 'all' means that ALL those the Father gives will come so that rules out that any given by the Father will refuse to come. And when the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the word of the Lord, and as many as were appointed to eternal life believed. Any initial resistance they may have had was overcome, indeed had to be overcome because God had appointed them to receive eternal life. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. His sheep will not resist but WILL follow Him. In the final analysis God makes us willing, He breaks down any resistance. Shame that your final comment reveals such an angry person.

It's been proven that those who disbelieve in Predestination are often full of rage and get easily frustrated and *will leave out of nowhere fuming* just because their feelings got offended. It's really weird. It's almost _as if_ they do not have the Holy Spirit. Those who believe in Predestination are cool calm and collected just explaining things, not needing to rage at all. I have witness This for years! Blessings in Christ Jesus!

I would have liked Sam to dive deeper in scripture about predestination. Like Ephesians 1:1-6.

i dont think im ever going to use NIV again

Evil has no problem destroying itself. This is clear this os its nature.

I have an issue with your conclusion of LUKE 10, Messiah sent out "ANOTHER 72" Judas was among the first 12 not the 72. So when you ask if Judas was one of the 72 when Yahusha commented about "their names written in heaven" that wasn't said regarding Judas in that occasion.

13 36, Lord Lord... 😮

NOT one of us can call the fate of one who is not found or one who is found FOR risk of being found to be at fault

What about those who has not heard the Gospel while alive? I heard someone recently say they will hear it in the after life and choose. They gave a few scriptures. Never learned or heard such thing.

Sam refused to explain why I was wrong about what the Bible says and didn't give a reason. I'm a trinitarian who meets all of his criteria for a brother according to him but he didn't want to treat me like one. He literally did to me exactly what he complains Matt did to him at 51:04. He poisoned the well against me and refused to deal with the plain text of several passages.

If you belive in the book the correct answer is YES.

Romans 9 19-21 "One of you will say to me: “Then why does God still blame us? For who is able to resist his will?” But who are you, a human being, to talk back to God? Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, ‘Why did you make me like this?’ ” Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for special purposes and some for common use? Paul poses questions, not a statement, but the entire chapter of Romans 9 suggests fate being determined at creation of the soul. I know this seems counterintuitive to logic, but I believe that our fate is predetermined, and we have free will to choose. God is the beginning and the end. He is omnipotent and omniscient through all time. We have free-will to be responsible for our own decisions, but God created us knowing the decisions we would make. If we choose to place our faith in Jesus, then God created us for salvation. If we choose to not follow Jesus, then God created us for destruction. Humanities knowledge is limited temporally, but God's knowledge is not.

Since Jesus was already foreordained before the foundation of the world,[1Peter1:20] and Jesus was manifested to save us from sin, how is it consistent for someone to argue that God was expecting Adam NOT to sin, since Jesus was already FOREORDAINED?

So Sam is now teaching baptismal regeneration. To simply brush aside the thief on the cross is actually reading your theology into the text which you claim you are not doing. I believe your leaning towards the Catholic Church

We all have free wiil...BUT if u are predestinated...his will for your life WILL come to pass....jonah had free wil n REFUSE to go preach to the people d Lord wanted him to...n inside of jonah free will...God will still came to fruition...so we wil hav our little free will for a moment but if u are predestinated son/daughter u WILL find your way back to God...even if its on your last dying breath....

He said he kept all but the son of perdition

The Bible doesn’t specifically says who were the 72 if they were the apostles

By his mannerisms and disposition, I am pretty sure that Sam is a Yankee, but I think that I like him and trust him anyway.

Predestination is not biblical. The very heart of God, in the very center of Gods heart we find mercy. Holy of holiest - there is mercy seat. God wants that everybody got saved. That’s he’s will and that’s why He gave His only begotten Son

The Bible hell is the common GRAVE of mankind. What happens to it according to Revelation 20:14?

The only one predestined was Jesus Christ who had a reason for showing up.

On water baptism: John 3:5 was very clear, *Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. (NKJV)* There are no exceptions according to Jesus. Scriptures have shown multiple times that God doesn't violate his own rule to benefit certain individuals. Jesus will not break his own word just so this thief will be saved. Thus, this verse cannot be referring to water baptism, it must be something else. The thief is not saved if this is water baptism. Babies who died infants are not saved. Those who are mentally challenged will not be saved. Majority of the population of modern North Korea will not have a fair chance to be saved. Saying this is water baptism directly contradicts the rule that God desires all his creation to be saved as well as the the declaration of Jesus using the word "unless".

Yes God desires all be saved (2 Pet. 3:9), but that does not negate man has a free will. Since God is outside of time, man's limited decisions is only confined to man in his own time. God's omniscience, omnipresence and omnipotence transcends this. Meaning, though man can make a decision against or contradicting God's will, it will still over time fall within his providence. Just my view on this. I think the word "predestination" does not fully grasp the entirety of God's salvation plan. "Foreknowledge" is again another word that needs proper unpacking. If I have to use this word "predestination" my view would be different. God's "desire" is different. I agree that God desires that all be saved, but if man is defined by his free will, the man who is Not born again is unable to choose right from wrong (John 3). I believe the unpacking needs to be between God's "predestination" and "desire", because we as humans apply subjective meanings to an objective platform and this can always seem contradicting. But I guess that's where God will always be right and we wrong.

Calvinism by a honest Calvinist parent. Little Johnny, God has predestined the minority of people to be saved and go to heaven forever, and He has predestined the majority of people to be eternally damned and burn in the fires of hell. We have no idea, little Johnny, if God has predestined you to be forever damned or forever saved. We love you, little Johnny, but we accept the fact that God might not love you, and that He may have plans to send you to hell for your future sins. If you do find yourself one day burning in hell because He hasn’t elected to save you, just remember that we will always love you, even if God hates you. Take comfort knowing that we are not like God. We will be in heaven forever only because we were unconditionally chosen for salvation before we were born. That would be the only reason that we won’t be in hell with you if you find yourself there. It won’t be because of anything we did. So also take comfort in knowing that. It may not seem fair, but who are we to judge God? So again, if you find yourself in hell, remember that we will always love you as we forever worship the God who loved us but who hated you, the God who sent His Son to die for us but not for you. Please, we ask, don’t let it bother you-if you find yourself in hell-that we love the God who hated you and showed you no mercy. We must accept the fact that God is sovereign, and He does what He pleases. My dear beloved Calvinist, will you teach that to your children or grandchildren? I suspect that your answer will be “never.” But why not? Why would you ever hide the wonderful “doctrines of grace,” the “Bible truth,” from your own children or grandchildren? TRUTH IN LOVE

It is impossible for omnipotence to mean "absolutely no limits". Absolutely no limits, IMMEDIATELY and in every way, leads to complete contradictions. Free will ALSO can not mean "absolutely no limits". As a matter of fact, humans don't experience their will as perfectly limitless. For example, their will is limited by their human identity, time, intellect and more. So, we haven't got perfect definitions of "omnipotence" or "free-will".

Universalism is true because God knew the beginning to the end. His entire creation will return to him. Eventually there is punishment in that there is a purgatory however, God does not punish someone eternally God‘s punishments or corrective in nature he would not punish someone who does not have the ability to correct their behavior that would just be torture and that is not God. God is love. God is Jesus Christ, William Tisdale changed the meaning of the word Aeon which meant for a time to eternal to scare people and control them. Fear is a great controller and what is scarier than eternal hellfire. Lucifer, the first created being will be the last one in God’s holy Kingdom due to the karmic debt he hast to burn off. Crazy concept I know, but this is the truth. God is good.

The developer of the GTA game scripted every aspect of the game, you play it, it feels like you have freewill and can do anything, it's all scripted...

Sam Open Theism is True...And since Open Theism is True Calvinism CANNOT BE TRUE...The Future has NOT happened yet and God does NOT know Counterfactuals as Fact...God knows ALL that is possible to know...Since we have Free Will both the Present and Future are OPEN...Open Theism is the Foundation of Free Will Theology...Both God and Man are Free...

​ @user-zs2ly5qu3f Peace to you my friend. And may Holy Spirit give you "exhaustive" comprehension of His timelessness, of being outside of time which is a created entity, soon to be destroyed and remade.

Christ was betrayed and crucified, and God willed it and prophesied it. If the jews accepted Jesus there will be no crucification and salvation.

(1) In Reality, free will does not exist. Events are either random or they are determined. In either case, there is no free will. (2) In Christianity, free will does not exist. God's will is the only will that has cause and effect. In the Lord's prayer, does Jesus Christ say "let your will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven?" Human free will has ZERO impact on God's free will. If human free will could impact God's free will, then this would mean God is not omnipotent.

You are a fool. If God created man to have a truly free will, then he cannot override it. But he did create us with truly free wills. Otherwise, what is the point of advice and correction?

Sam i agree with your anti TULIP stance but not with regeneration thru water baptism simply because it will tantamount to good works. The reasoning that there are “exceptions” (like in the case of the thief on the cross) is actually proof against your reasoning , by means of deductive process, that baptism is not a requirement unto salvation. 99.9999% of old testament believers were not baptised yet they were saved. “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved” is another proof that Baptism is not a requirement. Remember, God is not in the business of giving people reasons to be excused. If A+B = 100, and A=100, therefore B is not needed to get a 100 result. B is needed to show that you have 100, not to get 100.

The title defeats sam😂😂😂 If God predestines one single event or purpose He must predestine every surrounding event so that it occurs as He Wills! If you argue any other point you are a wicked deceiver! Right Sam that’s the language you like! 2EZ 😂

I have to disagree Judas being saved and his name being written in the lamb book of life and then being taken out. In John 13:10-11 10 Jesus said to him, “He who is bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not all of you.” 11 For He knew who would betray Him; therefore He said, “You are not all clean.” CLEAN here is a representation of salvation. Jesus is saying All of you who believe in me as the Messiah and accepted my salvation are now clean except Judas. I also disagree about the blotting out of the name. In Revelation 3:5 5 He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels. -It's not a statement of possibility of removing ones name from the book. It is an affirmation that if you are truly saved then I guarantee you eternal life which means your name will never be removed forever for it is a gift ETERNAL. Jesus said "NO ONE" Can take them of my Father's Hand and my hand. No people can take your salvation from you, nor demons...not even your ownself. Those who have been truly born again, the Holy Spirit will abide INSIDE of them. Not with them but inside of them FOREVER. Infact because of our sins we are all supposed to go to hell thus saying that not all of our names are witten in the book, no!. It means that it is either your name is already written in the book or not written at all. Revelation 13:8 is clear about this 8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have NOT BEEN WRITTEN in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. So, here it says our name were written in the lamb book of life before the beginning of time. Not because God choose who will He save but because these are the people who will really accept Him and not reject Him in the future. And this is God's point of view. That is why we still preach the Gospel to anyone and everyone because we do not know who can still be saved. God knows that and we don't. That is why He removing of names was never mentioned happening in the Bible, the possibility yes, but the actual action of someone's name bwing removed was never done. Because the Truth is it either you are written in it or not. So, if you die not having Christ in your life that means that your name was not written in it, Did God decide it? No, you decide it yourself. God only happens to show us somethings outside of timeline. He loves everyone to save them by giving His Son our Lord Jesus...but sadly...not everyone will love Him.

He doesn't know, nobody knows, he has an ability to make you think he does.

Oh there is definition choice, but there is no free choice. If you define free as uncaused or not influenced. Defined that way, only God has free choice. He knows the end from the beginning. Every detail. The hardening of Pharoah's (probably the most powerful human alive at the time) heart. Nebuchadnezzar made to graze with cows for seven years. We are mere clay in the hands of the Great Potter. Does the word responsible even exist in Scriptures. Ditto free will. Romans 12:3: God parts to each the measure of faith. John 12:39: Therefore they could not believe. You will be held accountable for your actions. Think of the weatherman. He has to give an account of the weather but he is not responsible for the weather. But why are we still judged. Because this is His world and that what He wants.

Luke 3:21-3:22

Heard a number of these teachings from different people. Busy listening to this one too. The truth is, both sides - predestination and freewill - can be argued, with scripture. 2 Peter 3:9 - The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 1 Peter 2:8 - And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. In reality us mere mortal humans cannot fathom the mind and will of God. How it all ends with who makes it and who doesn't. That is God's business. And to make peace with it, we just need to acknowledge that nowhere in scripture does God tell His people that we have to be able to reconcile this truths. That God expects us to fully comprehend and understand them. No, that's God's business. Jesus told us that "few" make it, and that "many" don't. That's all we know.

@@Rileyed What you said has not addressed the issue of children and as far as I can see, there is nothing in the bible regarding children with no life or those with too young to know Jesus. Sorry your reply is poor to say the least.

For all of Sam's interpretations and explanations , the truth is Jesus rebuked Nicodemus (a teacher of Scripture to the Jews - but yet ignorant or one who did not understand the significance of the prophecies of Ezekiel that will be fulfilled at the 2nd coming of Jesus). Ezekiel 36:21-24 > For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land. Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you. A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. And ye shall dwell "in the land that I gave to your fathers"; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God. Spl note - the above is the truth of what "born again" means, unlike the modern day teaching of pseudo born again. Note - "in the land that I gave to your fathers" includes much more than the land where the Jews in Israel presently live. That's why 1948 is not yet the fulfillment of the Ezekiel 36 prophecy; that's yet in the future. The world will have to acknowledge that God who is sovereign over all things and Creation will prevail. Prophet Ezekiel was addressing the Jews and Israel as were all the prophets of Old Testament times. Note - born of the spirit and water are both to be fulfilled within the next 50 years. Water baptism is highly exaggerated by some denominations and ignores specific pronouncements by Apostles e.g. Mathew 3:11 > I (John the Baptist ) indeed baptize you with water unto repentance. but He that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: (Note the above is not referring to water baptism). 1 Corinthians 17-18 > For Christ sent me (Apostle Paul) not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us (who believe in Christ , because of preachers and teachers) which are saved it is the power of God. (Again, it's not water baptism but belief in the Word of God that saves believers from the Second death). Sam is wrong when he reaches that Enoch did not die. Read the following verses and know the truth from the Word of God. Did Enoch die ? Absolutely - but he did not see death because he was taken in his sleep. Besides, at 365 years of age, he was too young to even think of death especially when his ancestors lived to be 895, 905, 930 , 962. Hebrews 11:1-13 > Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good report... By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. But without faith it is impossible to please HIM: for he that cometh to God must believe that HE is, and that HE is a rewarder of them that diligently seek HIM.... "These all [obviously includes Enoch] died in faith", not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. Numbers 23:19 > God is not a man, that HE should lie; Note - Therefore when the Word of God states that "these all died in faith" - listing Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Sarah it is the truth. Note - when Enoch was taken in his sleep (when God took him) he did not see death but below is the summary of what happens on death. Enoch's spirit returned to God and HE holds it somewhere below the heavens [most likely in paradise] to be resurrected at the appointed time Ecclesiasties 2:7 > then shall the dust return to the earth as it was, and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. Moses died and in his case, God had revealed unto him aforehand about his death as recorded in the scriptures. Deuteronomy 34:5-6 > So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the Lord. And HE buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Bethpeor: but no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this day. Was Elijah taken to Heaven by God. No, but he was moved from one location to some other until his mission was accomplished, similar to Philip being moved from one location to another as revealed below : Acts 8:38-39 > And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea. Shalom From a gentile believer in Christ Searching for the truth from the Word of God.

(e) Revelation 17:16 > And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.

Remember, that the timing of Christ's second coming is firstly to gather the Jews from all the nations and bring them to Israel and also bring to life (born again) the dry bones of the Old Testament time believers in the land of Israel - these will be precursors to the establishment of the thousand year reign of Christ from Jerusalem. The term "born again" has been misinterpreted and people proclaim themselves as "born again". 1 John 3:9 > Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for His seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. [ Note - can anyone honestly claim today that they are "born again" based on the above criteria?] The gathering (rapture) of all believers - Jews & Gentiles - will happen at the end of Christ's thousand year reign and God will dwell with them on the New Earth that will come down from Heaven.

Did God create evil? Isaiah 45:7 is a lie. 7. There is God and there is a creation. The creation is the visible part of God we call light. Before God created the light He was darkness, through His creation He emerged from the darkness. The darkness back then was not evil because good did not exist, nothing existed other than God's thought by His Spirit. His desire was and is still today to become brighter still in all His Glory. Well you may ask is God not already omnipotent, yes He is but that does not stop Him in becoming greater still. There is no other God to compete with Him so there is no competition to become greater. He is becoming greater out of love for Himself who is His creation. Growth in the light stops decay, which is backsliding. The moment He created the first kindle image of Himself-the light-He at the same time became good. There was then the possibility of evil to exist which is backsliding back into the darkness. The moment God created the light which is good the possibility was there for the light to be switched off again which is the concept of evil. There is a tremendous gap between the darkness and the light and we who are the light have this constant tendency to want to know the darkness because we only know the light. God on the other hand knows both the darkness and the light. God never goes back into the darkness but we who are the light have the free will to choose if we want to be God's loyal subjects and continue in God's light or become evil and return to the darkness. Evil just means returning to the darkness. We can never return to the full extent of darkness because it will become too unbearable for us, which is hell. That does not stop us from trying but God knows we can never succeed, He allows the will of the light to experience evil so that the light can understand it can never succeed and therefore will continue in the light. The reason why we have free will is because we don't know God, we can only have faith in God, which means believing in God without fully knowing Him. How can we fully know God when we don't know the darkness nor do we know the full extent of God's brightness. Whatever brightness we may know God knows more. So because we don't know God we cannot blame God for the predestination caused by His omniscience. Faith in God does not prove God exists, it is just a belief without knowing the existence of God. This gives us “who are the light” the concept that we have a free will to choose between good or evil, continue in the infinite greatness of the light or return to the infinite depth of darkness. So just because we may believe in God does not give us the reason to blame Him for the choices we make, if or when we choose to pursue the darkness. We are God's creation “the Light” therefore we are the best part of God which excludes the darkness and for that reason also we have free will just like God has free will being a part of Him. It's a simple concept really, we are part of God's body let us not become cancerous, every cell has a free will to grow well for the benefit of the whole body or rebel and become cancerous to bring the body down where both cancer and body will burn in hell-the cancer will burn-be surgically removed-not God's body because God's body has immunity, it immerged from darkness. God has made thoughtful surgical provision for this by the way of hell. If we choose the darkness we create our own hell, God never created hell we create it if we choose to pursue it by backsliding. The prohibition to take the apple in the garden of Eden represented the darkness and we should never backslide to try to be like God. Only God has this knowledge of being the darkness. God was never evil even when He was alone in the darkness because the light did not exist then. He was just a thought in the darkness and He emerged from it, so God was never evil. Only we who are the light and who try to go back to darkness become evil because we lose faith in God and stop being God's loyal subjects by pursuing the darkness. We must let God give us the prohibited fruit not take it ourselves because we don't know how to digest it. Only God can present it to us in a fruitful way for the benefit of the greater light. This is why Abel was killed by his brother Cain. Abel did everything good for the light and Cain chose to pursue the darkness to the point that he killed his brother so that the light could be extinguished. However the light can never be extinguished, it can only be removed from where the pursuit of darkness is. Darkness is the absence of light, at any point those who have chosen to pursue the darkness can repent and turn towards the light again. The light may seem far just like when we look up in the night sky and see the stars far away. The light who is God's loyal subject can never be destroyed because they are who God wants them to be and have remained faithful to Him. So God has no part in evil those who where the light have chosen to become dark or evil not God. God made the light but the light can choose to be extinguished as far as they can bear. It will become very unbearable for them because light is life and darkness is an endless death in hell. We can be born again-meaning-we as the light can experience death by sinking into darkness but can be reborn by accepting God's light again. God the Father through His Spirit emerged from His darkness and became His Son who is the Light of the Universe, we all are THIS LIGHT if we choose to follow Him. So did God create evil? We who are the light and choose to backslide create evil and we who are part of God the Father are responsible for the evil we create. God the Father and His Spirit are not responsible for our backsliding simply because our faith in God cannot prove God exists. This is how God can allow us to believe in free will so that we can share in His creation, God remains anonymous by His Omniscience. God's desire is for the light to become like Him so that we can become fully aware that we are Him. God became man so that man may become God. Only a God can know God, which is what God wants. Then we will know for sure it was our will all along.

@@kiwiburciaga I'll tell you why Lucifer sinned. Even the angels have not seen God, they also need faith to believe in God. Lucifer was a mighty angel because he had lots of faith and did everything God told him to do through the Holy Spirit. In fact Lucifer was in charge of creating the universe. Because Lucifer did everything by faith God gave him all the power to create the universe. As long as we do God's will God gives us whatever we ask of Him. The scripture says whatever you ask in My Name I will grant it, but it needs to be in God's name, meaning for His Kingdom. The problem is the more power we get the more top headed we can become and because we can't see God we may start to believe it's not from God that we are getting this power but from ourselves. How many pastor do you know that the same fall from grace has happened to them? The moment we stop having faith in God God has to stop giving His power or else He becomes the evil one. God never backslides, not that He has no will to do it, if He did the whole universe would revert back to how it was before God created anything. He's been there and knows what it's like and there is a reason why He created the light, my above comment about "did God create evil" explains it. So because Lucifer started to think he was God it was an act of turning his back on the true God to become satan the devil and he fell to the earth and never repented. Satan still thinks He created the universe from his own efforts, not from a God who can't be known because He is the almighty. If Lucifer had remained humble as we have to remain humble I believe God will eventually reveal Himself to us as His equal, which is God's plan to begin with. For God became man so that man may become God.

How so?

Work your way out of every bible except of the concordant ones. All your bibles have hell and eternity written in them. While in fact the bible does not EVER mention that

​ @O_tropos It's Hebrew, it's the last words of Psalm 23. Make a study in the Hebrew and explain why it does not mean eternity.
