However, knowing an outcome is not the same as creating an outcome, in a vague sense.<BR/><BR/>He -must- know, otherwise he would not be an omnipresent, omniscient being. However, it is through our own decisions and declaration of faith that results in our salvation. The Father made salvation possible through the death and resurrection of his Son, and sends the Holy Spirit to aid and help us -- but ultimately, that pivotal decision to choose to live (or not!) according to His word is still ours. Otherwise, he really wouldn't have given us Free Will.Dr _MikeyMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07789639272046760719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-853207333094285361.post-60853394743575432892009-02-20T10:28:00.000-08:002009-02-20T10:28:00.000-08:00I find predestination a hard one to understand. O...I find predestination a hard one to understand. One time Candy said that God just foretold those who would accept salvation. I did ask her about the verse which says, "those he foreknew he also predestinated" but she just said , "Exactly," so I didn't get very far. I thought she was Reformed/Calvinist when I first read her blog but then more and more things she said didn't fit with that such as that people who never hear the gospel will be saved because they didn't know they were sinning.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-853207333094285361.post-84323523019688001342009-02-16T19:50:00.000-08:002009-02-16T19:50:00.000-08:00See?! :DNo excuses!!!!! :P~~See?! :D<BR/><BR/>No excuses!!!!! <BR/><BR/>:P~~Dr _MikeyMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07789639272046760719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-853207333094285361.post-17855050699199284592009-02-16T19:08:00.000-08:002009-02-16T19:08:00.000-08:00Sorry to disappoint you Mikey, but I don't even ha...Sorry to disappoint you Mikey, but I don't even have a videocamera. <BR/><BR/>Although I hear you can get one real cheap at Wal-Mart . . .Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16120027058653022897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-853207333094285361.post-42443985875085047012009-02-16T18:40:00.000-08:002009-02-16T18:40:00.000-08:00I enjoyed the little link to the anti-Catholic tra...I enjoyed the little link to the anti-Catholic track. <BR/><BR/>Oh - and I am wondering if 'Visits to Candyland' should make a YouTube page? :)<BR/><BR/>I would hate to see Candy have the technological edge to spread her venom, although I've found plenty of stuff not by her just by typing in a couple of searches.Dr _MikeyMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07789639272046760719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-853207333094285361.post-58555883740335271092009-02-16T11:12:00.000-08:002009-02-16T11:12:00.000-08:00Robin said:"She is some weird mixture of beliefs b...Robin said:<BR/>"She is some weird mixture of beliefs based on her own interpretation of Bible."<BR/><BR/>I totally agree with this.anymommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06316888519644205990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-853207333094285361.post-66817635822497870172009-02-16T09:28:00.000-08:002009-02-16T09:28:00.000-08:00Trust me - Candy is definitely not a Calvinist/Ref...Trust me - Candy is definitely not a Calvinist/Reformed believer. We believe in the total depravity of man - not just original sin - and, we believe that you must repent and be saved. We do not promote the use of the 'sinner's prayer', either. We also strongly believe that you have to work at Christian beliefs every day with Bible study, prayer (lots and lots of prayer), repentance, and putting your beliefs into action (i.e. missions, good works, etc)<BR/><BR/>I could go on...but you get the gist. She is some weird mixture of beliefs based on her own interpretation of Bible. ;-)Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01409733328788836840noreply@blogger.com
