Okay, but if God has always known the end of the story... what has been the purpose of allowing it all to play out?
God creates man with free will... but even at the time of creation, God knows what man will do with it... has this been like a 4,000 (give or take ) year experiment just so God can say, "yep... pretty much what I expected..."?

Exactly.
If there's been some "biblical roadmap" all this time, and we as a race have no control over it, then what's the point?
You mean to tell me we're just pawns in God's video game?
so much for free will.
Sorry, I create my own destiny.
ELVIS and his ilk FEAR free will, because they have no self control. Which explains why when given feedom, they drink/drug too much, crash cars, etc.
SOME of us use God's free will to our advantage.
Your jealousy of us free people is funny, ELVIS

this should be interesting. Actually lounge machine we do have free will very much so we don't have to with god we can turn against him and burn eternally in hell or we can follow the shepeard in to paradise.
Do you love me peter? Yes of course my lord. Then feed my sheep.
Originally posted by ELVIS I still have free will...
Okay... but sometimes it gets confusing as to how we are supposed to use our free will.
If this is God's ultimate plan... which it must be, or he would not have made it to be so... then our free will should not be used to try and prevent its happening. Am I right? Wouldn't that be to go against God?
If it is God's will that these events occur, what is the purpose to them happening? Why not just make it be so to begin with?
I know a good christian accepts God's will without question... but sometimes I think God has a purpose for me, and I just don't know what that is. Yeah, yeah... I know, God will let me know in good time... but I find myself wondering alot... is this what God wants... or is this Satan tempting me... Has God already offered me the closest thing to paradise this side of heaven, and I turned my back on it... or did the devil tempt me, and I was strong...
Originally posted by LoungeMachine so much for "question everything, accept nuttn"
Why not just say, "I'll follow the sheep"
Lounge machine DON'T PUT WORDS IN MY MOUTH!!!!! Read the bible and you will see clearly that it say he is our shepeard we are his flock. But no where in my previous post did i say i accept this as the truth, nor did i say i didn't question it.
