Every passage containing the word "predestined" has to do with the future redemption of the body for the believer. Not one has to do with one's salvation. Not one.

Forgiveness was an option for God, but he had every intention of destroying them in forty days. My question is, did God know ahead of time that Nineveh would repent, and in turn, he would repent and not destroy them? If you say yes, then you make God a liar.

Prophecy are things God is going to make sure will come to pass.

God declared that in forty days, Nineveh would be overthrown. In forty days, Nineveh was not overthrown. One of two things occurred: 1. God lied 2. God changed his mind 10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he...

Predestinated unto the adoption. The adoption is not salvation. The adoption is the redemption of the body. Your argument is with God's word, not me.

If God knew in advance Nineveh would repent, would that make him a liar? Did God say that in forty days they would be overthrown? After forty days, were they overthrown? 4 And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be...

Let's take a biblical example from the book of Jonah. Did God lie? Did God change his mind? Jonah 3: 9 Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not? 10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the...

I take it as a statement of truth. There is no reason not to take it as truth. God chooses not to remember our sins. I believe he said what he meant, and meant what he said.

Personally, I wouldn't give a penny for most modern day seminary degrees.

I'm suggesting that God has chosen not to know things. Is this possible?

Scripture please? Btw, God's foreknowledge of something is not God choosing it to occur.

I'm debunking this whole, predestination thing to salvation. Predestination has nothing to do with one getting saved, but everything to do with those already saved. Ephesians 1: 5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure...

Are there certain things that God chooses not to know?

According to scripture, how does the Lord know who are his? 2 Timothy 2:19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

I‘m the biggest opponent to Calvinism on this board brother. Where in the world would you get to your comment?

He chose us in him to receive the spiritual blessings in the heavenly places. He didn't choose us to be in him. If you want to get in on the spiritual blessings, you must be in him. And in order to be in him, you must first trust in Christ. Read the entire chapter. Don't cherry pick verses...

Do you see that phrase “according as?” It’s taking you back to what was previously said. Verse 4 does not say that he hath chosen us to be in him. That’s how a Calvinist reads it. He makes ”us” the subject rather than the spiritual blessing in verse 3. God chose, before the foundation of...

Not one of those verses containing the word "predestination" is concerning salvation. It is actually speaking of those already saved. It has to do with the future adoption, the redemption of the body, conforming to the image of Jesus Christ.

And yet, no scripture to back this up. Btw, Esau did not hate Jacob before he was born.

Scripture for this belief....thanks
