as per predestination and election, i believe that God is the potter …
“Woe to him who quarrels with his Maker—one clay pot among many. Does the clay ask the potter, ‘What are you making?’ Does your work say, ‘He has no hands’?
Isaiah 45:9
“But who are you, O man, to answer back to God? Will what is molded say to its molder, “Why have you made me like this?”
Romans 9:20
.”Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels.
4And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make
it.
5Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
6O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the LORD. Behold, as the clay
is in the potter's hand, so
are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel
jeremiah 18:3-6
There is no doubt that God creates us for his purposes, for his good pleasure. not all that God has created is created for salvation, he has created some for assignments to try and test his people.
“
21Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
22What if God, willing to shew
his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
23And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,”
Romans 9:21-23
“I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations.”
Jeremiah 1:5
“For You formed my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother’s womb.”
Psalm 139:13
I do believe in the sovereign power of my God who
predestined his chosen in christ
before the foundation of the world; giving those he has chosen a type of intuition (
for lack of a better word) to acknowledge something greater than himself, when they are outside and watch the wind blow through the leaves of the trees, they acknowledge Gods glory in all of His creation. The searching out that takes us down different rabbit holes trying to find Him becomes our quest, some find Jesus but some also find allah or molech.
