Owliver:Please use your sense You have free will to do whatever you like. Example. I have a friend who wants to buy a very expensive car. I know he wants to buy the car and its expensive. Fore I can't. But I can't influence his decision not to. But I know what he wants to do. For example we predict someone's action doesn't mean the person was/is programmed to carry out that action . Don't have to explain anymore. |

I have asked this question before but I don't think there is a suitable answer. For example, Noah and the flood. God had already decided. If pharaoh was not bad, then the isrealites would not have needed saving by moses. My own question was. If God wrote my destiny and knows what I will do, then why punish me for my actions? But all in all muslims believe that you cannot make heaven witout God's mercy. So I believe that it's very important to ask God to have mercy on our souls. |

Sugarhugs:so gods "destiny" is now prediction? like nairabet? tombo tombo Abi? if that destiny cannot be reached then it was never the destiny. destiny is unchanged(as you people say) feel me dear. |

Owliver:Oga you have just blocked your mind from understanding, that is all that's happening here. A lay man would understand that explanation. Your own decisions, is anybody forcing you? If nobody is forcing you, is it not your own free will? God being omniscient simply knows the outcome of what you will do, but it is up to you choose for yourself. A man named Jabez in the Bible changed his destiny by calling on God.You keep saying that "you people say", "you people want to", but you have not even told us where in the Bible they implied that people are predestined to go to hell. You're just addressing a misconception. |

God doesn't know our next actions. If he did then It just wouldn't make any sense, we would be like robots programmed to do his will. If he did, he wouldnt have told Adam not to eat that fruit, it would've been a complete waste of time. The truth is God doesn't know our plans, he only knows the outcome of all our plans. |

Strawman:OK God changed her destiny(unchangeable) ? it's either am mad or you are. until you people redefine that term or stop using it I will never agree with something that contradicts itself. simple English na him dey do una. change and unchangeable cannot work together. simple |

The truth is, most Christians don't know shit about the scripture (including our so called pastors). According to the scripture God is in control of is entire creation, and the biggest lie we are being told is FREE WILL, the state of the world today is how God intended for it to be today, including humans. Anything humans are doing today as been predstinated before the creation of the world. Nothing in this world is spontaneous according to ecclessiastes 3:1. Only God can lead humans from the law of sin which he created. Human don't have the power to turn away from sin |

ovodino:so what is the criteria for heaven and hell? since someone has our remote control? |

@op u are not a believer because if so you would have know the truth let me give u an example in the beginning when God create Adam and eve he told them what to eat and what does not supposed to eat.do u know the reason why is because he know the result of each thing that is why he left them to choose what they want not as if he have already know what they will choose. is as if you born a pikin and you know what he can do and what he can't but mind you u cannot stop him from what he wish to do because that is what he choose so u better pray make only spirit manifest in ur life and explain the word in spirit for u. |

[color=#990000][/color] if you are predestined to commit then you must have been predestined to go to Hell. Wake up from ur slumber! And receive sense to read your bible well. |

Richydos:Read the story of the prodigal son, did the father love the child ? Yes, when the child ask for his inheritance, even when the father knows , the boy is making a big mistake, did he interfere in his decision ? No, he allow the boy to make the mistake so that he will learn, hoping the son will return one day. |

OP, firstly let me make it clear that we are not destined or predestined to sin but satan the devil want to impose such influence on humanity(john 10;10), but our God has given us(a true believer) full authority to overcome him (luke 10;19). Now to gain more insight to ur question, matt6:13 said "And let us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. Jesus knew that evil abound in the world bcus of satan the devil the ruler of this world( john 12:31, john14:30). And he knw that we may be tempted even as righteous believer but he expect us to overcome the devil by words of the lord. Also see the case of peter in (luke22:31-32), he knew satan plan towards peter but he intervene for him by praying for him, how abt judas isc. (John13:21,26-27) read that scripture for more insight. So in conclusion God forseen the plan of devil to maketh us to sin but he has given us the power to overcome him, serve God in true and in spirit. |

malvisguy212:that was a very good one from you. Now the question is; did the father destined the child to be a prodigal son? Is the father the cause of the child's mistake? It will not be fare to blame the father for the child's decision. That is where the issue of freewill comes in. From the father 's experience in life, he knows the boy 'can' make mistake, but the father does not decide if the boy 'will' make mistakes. It's purely the boy's decision. God knows if we do good, better future awaits us. And the opposite if we do bad. Deutaronomy 30:19. Whether we do good or bad is purely our decision |
