So I was reading this book and about the the existence of the spiritual realm, our sub conscious mind and the power it possess, how man has exploited this realm (both the spiritual and sub conscious) in search of absolutely power of over his own physical realm and the writer in the course of time explained that all this activities(spiritual/astral) of man has disrupt the initial system of matter in its state of constant rest or motion. here by changing the actually route for some people's destiny nd in all they've been able to delay the destiny's but couldn't change them.he cited example saying when a greatman is born, astrologers can see a star either great or small, and if it is a great star it reveals greatness. So this proves that we have a predestined life to live..... So my question do we really have a predestined life or arent we the ones who forge our path

Maccoy1:
it's an old book I found in the library, the cover was long torn... I don't think it has a digital copy but in every pages there is "S.B.A.T" written on it.

Calvary greetings.
God created human beings as free moral agents i.e we have absolute control over our will. But worthy of note also is that God created everyone for a purpose which is the bright destiny everyone knows he has
As free moral agents we are absolutely responsible for the decisions we make and these decisions determine where we end up.

But as humans, prone to mistakes as is our nature, it is impossible to make all the right decisions that'll lead us to that bright destiny fulfiling the purpose we were created for.
This can only be achieved by submitting our will to God and following His directives through His Spirit in us.

Hence the concept of total surrender to Christ (as this is the only way we can be united back to God) and determination to live by God's directives -Christ's examples- and standards.

dont be surprised it has a digital copy. check the book well...there should be something sonewhere that will give u an insight to the author or title.


well with regards to mans journey on earth being predetermined, I think d bible indirectly lends credence to it. a vivid example is the life of jesus. His life has been foreseen and prophesied by different prophets of the past. Jesus knew he would be betrayed and there was no way the cup was going to pass over him. dat alone shows the bible supports a predestined life for man

a robot will never know he is programmed.....will it?

Maccoy1:
hmmm meaning

Maccoy1:
so in your terms you believe there is a destiny nd also our actions . but, the believe of destiny is that irrespective of ur actions. It's like a written script. It must surely come to past.

"Before you were born I formed you. And after you were born, you live and change by My Will ". Jacob and Esau were set apart and pre-destined from the Womb and their lives were ordered by the Will and Word of God.
