malvisguy212:things don't happen randomly. outcomes r results of a structured actions. the soul that sins will die; the soul that does good will live- that's God's law of predestination. He has give us free will to chose the path to follow. |

michaelwestern:like everything else that follows a pattern works by law. nothing happens randomly. God has programmed existence with a law-the soul that sins will die; the soul that does good will live. like a job interview, God knows the percentage to take, he already knows those to take. U can only wish u r among. And that wish means to strife. Since God plans alone, U neva know u kuld be among the chosen. to think that out of 10, 100 persons r applying makes it impossible for u to be among is not true. it only means u refuse to prove that u r d best for the job |

my brother,the whole truth is that since Adam failed in creation,and sin came into the world,it became a spirit transfer until now.But christ came and die so that the works of the devil which is sin might be destroy in our so that we accepting as our personal lord and saviour and be save to escape the wrath of God and be Raptured to escape great tribulation.when you die and go to hell, you will not be told that God pragramme everything. DO WHAT IS RIGHT.MARANATHA(Jesus is coming very soon).Be prepared |

SuperSuave:Yes, nothing can happen without God’s knowledge. But since we don't know, de best we could predict is through our choices and actions. judas was predestined to betray Jesus, yes. But his choices brought it to fruition. there was no point in time Judas stopped being a rational mind. Even when he was told the prophecy, He rationed the 30 pieces of money over anything else. |

gabazin080:Yes, God knows everything. he predestined everything. despite that he still gave everyone a choice, and that choice is called rational mind. whatever action a man takes in the midst of several choices was as a result of his rationalisation of that choice over others. What God does is to set the outcomes just like it's written-the soul that sins will die; the soul that does good will live. these are facts and laws. U now have the choice to do good or bad. |

michaelwestern:knows and programming all fit in. it's like a car manufacturer, he knows that the car he has made kuld give pleasure for the driver or owner, and in a case of mishap it kuld cause pain- all what de driver could do is to follow de rules or safety guides. De manufacturer has programmed it to be both enjoyable yet fragile. he neva made it bulletproof to hazards. Now ur choice defines what u will get. |

Are you referring to predestination ?God Changes his methodology in New testament. Because isrealites hearts is too hard that was why God gave them comandments.In Old testament, the priest intercede for people in the holy of holy, people bring spotless lamb as an astonishment of their sins. He sent His son to the world to die for our sin, So we started enjoying Gods Grace, everything changes Methodology and Gods approach changes. In Christainity, old things has passed away all things has become New. You are upright when you sin and you know you have committed a sin, and u feel guilty. God forgives you instantly if you ask for forgiveness of sin. The is more Grace available for you to do what is right, this is not by our human effort but The HolySpirit |

The worst mistake Africans made was believing in those Middle-East story books. Outright foolishness. Believing a man in Israel or Saudi arabia died for your sins is far away Africa is the greatest height of foolishness. Africans were brainwashed. Those books were colonization/Slavery tools. |

Kennedyiheme:You don't have a drop of wisdom. You talk like a primary school kid. Wake up every morning and pray fervently for wisdom OK. Because if you're not so stupid, you'd know that Nigerian aren't getting rid of book haram by mere keeping quiet. It was by creating awareness and condemning extremist through forum like these. These kind of forum are places where the common man can voice his opinion. |

Boboye4slim:top countries use skill and knowledge they've aquire over the years.....mm they produce fighter jets, drones, cars, choppers... they learnt these things.......all these things addso up and build their economy, all Africans know how to do is pray and pray, argue senseless about religion....... religion is a waste of time and brweds laziness, makes young people dull...... African countries are top 7 most religious countries in the world of which nigeria is among...... we are worse and we don't have electricity.... if you don't see an irony in this then you and 90percent of people in this forum need serious help..... since 1909 prayers and religion hasn't done anything for africa.....breeders alone had over 1000 parishes in Nigeria, funny, no single research institute, nigeria police don't even have a forensic science department.... Africa is trouble, nigeria is in bigger trouble |

Adek15:sure,God knows. by Matt Slick God knows the future of what the free-will creatures choose. Free will does not stop becoming free because God knows what will happen. For example, I know that my child will choose to eat chocolate cake over a bowl full of stinking dead mice. If I were to set them both before my child, it is safe to say she will not eat the dead mice. Knowing this is not taking away the freedom of my child since she is freely choosing one over the other. Likewise, for God to know what a person will choose does not mean that the person has no freedom to make the choice. It simply means that God knows what the person will choose. This is necessarily so since God knows all things (1 John 3:20). Besides, if a person were to choose A instead of C, then that is what God would have known would happen. Furthermore, if God knows all things and knows what we are going to choose, then by definition, we are still making the choice; after all, the argument says that God knows what "we are going to choose". If we are going to "choose something", then we really are making the choice -- otherwise it wouldn't be logical to assert that God knows what we are going to choose. Choice implies the ability to decide between different options. Again, by definition if God is knowing what we are going to choose, then He knows what we are going to choose between options... otherwise we are not choosing anything and the statement is illogical. |

Ok op, see it dis way, God know all the route that leads to the diff market! Here those route are ur diff choices which lead to diff market, so any one u choose He know the end of it. Peace! Freewill is the best gift from God! But it also costing us... |

Elliot2:God already knows ALL the set of choices i'll make in the course of exercising my freewill. I am responsible and accountable for the choices i make, but God knows them all... God already knows ALL those that will make heaven or hell. He knows the sum-total of actions every human being will take. Does God intervene at anytime to change the outcome?? Now i'm confused ![]() Since God already knows ALL the choices an individual will make, why appeal to the sinner that is destined for destruction?? |

Kennedyiheme:Isn't that the reason forum like this was created to make people realize we're wasting too much time on religion. As a non scientist, who can't invent or create a machine or whatever, I can at least create awareness in forums like these for the need to stop being unnecessarily religious! Do you think I'm supporting religion here? Hell no I'm not! Religion made us lazy and dependent on unrealistic hope. Made us inactive and weak. Made illogical and careless. So I'm not supporting it. What I'm saying is you can't start calling me a lunatic for voicing my opinion either you are in support or against it. You can't cure religion fanatism until you understand the fanatic and forums like these gives the opportunity to do just that |

Barezzi:lol. Am not sure that u will stop being optimistic in a job interview cos u r told only 30 persons will be chosen out of d lot of 100 interviewees. Of course the company knows those to take by their standards. Even if it is a planned interview and u r not told about that, u will be optimistic to make it. at the end, they won't apologise to u even if ur name didn't come out. U can only reason that u weren't the best. likewise God, he doesn't plan with anyone. He hasn't told u personally u will go to hell, only ur choices determines it. so if u fail to live justly n u find ur self in hell, will u blame Him n say cos he already condemned u before? u failed to be the best to be among the chosen 30! |
