Ah! I see we are moving in a certain direction. Now if God would ONLY give us a SHEPEARD to keep the whole flock together. Some person God gave ALL the wisdom too to lead us in His Word, to the FULL knowledge of HIS Truth and Will.
If we were ALL taken from a riverbed, on a dry season, by the clay collector. And this lump of clay was carried to God's workshop for His stock. Now God takes that ckay and start to make TWO types of vessels, from the SAME lump. That piece of clay that was in His hands when He made you, did you have ANY input to what HE will make of you?
Can ANY man tell God what to do? Could Jesus HIS begotten Son tell Him what to do? If even the Words of Jesus was NOT HIS OWN, But that of the Father that sent Him.... Just how in detail did God plan and predetermined EVERYTHING here on earth? Bookends asked a good queation about how God will judge a person, if HE predetermined where that person will go. I will answer with Scripture.... And I can only pray he understands the answer.
The answer is... All sinners are already judged, the Prince of this world is already judged. Did Jesus not say sinners will DIE in theiir sin, and that the son of perdition HE could not keep, in God, but the other's HE DID. Father I pray for them I PRAY NOT FOR THE WORLD.... Why would God have Jesus say that?
Why would there be some, THAT GOD NEVER KNEW? Can God create something that HE NEVER KNEW? I have given a lot of answers that no person has responded too. I even asked questions but it seems nobody is willing to answer them.
One of these questions is.... What is the difference between these two babies.... One is born where one parent is a believer, and that baby is born holy! The other is born where the parents are not believers and the baby is born UNCLEAN!
For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
One baby is HOLY, and the other is UNCLEAN? One vessel God makes out of clay is for HONOUR, the other for DISHONOUR? And what baby has the say to what parents will he be born too? What vessel tells the potter what to make him. Oh you foolish people, who can council GOD? I certainly CANNOT! If i could I would have TOLD Him to make me holy! Wonder if He will do it?
What if I ask? What if I do as HE says... And ASK HIM FOR WISDOM, but I HAVE TO ASK IN FAITH... Apperently it is UNCONDITIONAL, as long as I ask in FAITH! Where do I get this FATIH from.. so it is conditional AGAIN! Man if only I understood!
All I know about God is this.... HE IS CHANGING ME! Why and to what I DO NOT KNOW, and do you want to know the TRUTH... I DO NOT CARE! HE WILL DO AS HE WILLS, I HAVE NO SAY! But I TRUST HIM!
One thing I do HOPE, not will HOPE... I have no will, let alone a free one... HAHAHA if people had wills, there would be more destinations than HELL and HEAVEN.... there would be more WAYS that the WIDE ONE TO HELL, and the NARROW one to heaven.
There are ONLY TWO ways, and TWO wills, we do EITHER of the two. Every action you do, like me RIGHT NOW, I only do what God wants me to do, like type this message, or I do what Satan wants me to do, and that is let us GOOGLE some evil sights, or whatever other lame thing HE WANTS (WILLS).
No man EVER had a will, but a CHOICE TO DO ONE OF TWO WILLS.... Adam could EAT, or NOT EAT! FINISH!
