Re: Are You an Atheist?
YOU missed: "So then it depends not on human will or exertion, but on God, who has mercy."
It is not up to us!
My personal revelations=P Here's one:
Experiment on the truth-content in the Bible:
- Read a book about a hundred pages long, for one guy.
- Now this other guy will try to re-tell the entire book to a third person.
- After this is done, the third person does the same thing to a fourth.
- Continue doing this for instance on a chain of 100 people.
- The last person writes down what the second-to-last person told him.
- Compare the story with the original text.
- Imagine how it was a for real all those years ago. When people could not read, not write, and these things had to be passed down through generations for several hundreds of years before they were written down!
Have fun!
You missed 'I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion', Scripture provided by the kind HB for your education.
It looks like a contradiction, but yet it isn't. Can't you even see that????
Lordy! Open your eyes!
Perhaps He is waiting for you to do the right thing Tom. Maybe you were predestined all along. But it's YOUR free will to grasp it.
