    Is freewill biblical or something we invented in modern times.

    There are many verses that indicate that we have choices in life. Of course, in the context of the word of God, we recognize that God's word is giving us the option to believe God's word or not. In order for those passages to have any validity and veracity, we must be able to make choices...

    Yes, and God knows who they are, because He foreknows who will choose to believe! That is why people need to believe as John 3:16 makes clear ... that whosoever believes on him shall not perish..... whosoever chooses to believe are those that God chooses

    On the omniscience of God

    One way to start looking at the subject of God's omniscience is that God created all things. God created the heavens and the Earth in the beginning. Genesis 1:1. As such, God is knowledgeable of all things that he created. He made something out of nothing, God created. A God smart enough to...

    The false dichotomy.

    The idea of 6 days of creation is not substantiated by the record in the Genesis 1 If we actually believe God knows what he is talking about and that he can pick his vocabulary accurately we will read that God did not create on every day otherwise he would have said he created on every day he...
