Default Re: Official Predestination and Calvinism Post

[ QUOTE ]


Hang on, I don't understand.

God (to angels) "Billy, Jimmy, Timmy, Sally, Harry ... go forth and give them scripture, knowledge, faith for I have predestined these five to be saved."

Angels "Aye, Aye captain!"

God (to angels) "Joe, Jim, Kim, Tim, Tom ... go forth and give them the evils of murderous rage, satanism, and heroin addiction for I have predestined these five to go to hell and be damned"

Angels: "Aye, Aye captain"

Is this how it works?

Cheers,
SDM

God doesn't need to go through angels. In fact, it is Him controling the angels, and it is him controling the human response to the angels. Thus it's more like:

"I have predestined these five to destruction so that my five will worship me all the greater, I will bring about in their lives sins of gluttony, adultery, addition, and more"
