This makes no sense at all. If he made the universe and all the rules and god knows what's going to happen before we do it. Then what's the sense of calling it free will. If your destiny is pre-knowing and pre-determined it's not freewill.

How does me saying we don't have free will imply that I do have free will? This guys tryna do a 180 on logic right here lol.

<<@imaniashley1138
says :
Statement 1- in our world we have cause and effect Statement 2 - every effect I act and think upon is prompted by a cause. Conclusion - our world is deterministic. This is called deductive reasoning, it is subject to data you r able to gather. So me reasoning that there is no free will, is deterministic, I don't need free will to deny free will.

"Knowing something is going to happen does not imply causing it to happen." Yes, it does if you're the one who set the whole thing up in the first place. If you set the initial conditions and you know the outcome, then by definition you caused it.

I had this long conversation with a guy who thought that because Jesus said that we are slaves to sin or to God that means we don’t have free will I explained to him so many different ways that that doesn’t mean we don’t have free will. He refused to understand what the Bible was actually was saying. Literally told me that choosing between sin and righteousness was not free will.

God is not outside of time! But it's high time preachers stop using this statement cos its non biblical and it's honestly harming the chances of anyone who might be even considering converting to Christianity cos it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that that statement then makes God seem honestly evil in regard to whatever bad things happen in the world including the punishment of mankind for original sin.

To be Convinced by Truth implies cause. To reject Truth implies Free Will. We can’t freely come to the Truth but we can freely reject it. Let me explain… if I’m unaware of something and then I’m not because it or he walked into my life and revealed himself to me on his own means he “caused” my belief. Think about it. If I can’t find God without him doing the revealing then he is the cause. Image you are a child and the hiding place was the world. Imagine you didn’t known you were playing Hide and Go Seek. Would you or Could you even Seek, much less find the one hidden? Absolutely, not without someone “causing” the seeking. It’s by them“telling” you someone is out there. Their message gives birth to “belief” in you. You don’t come up with it on your own. And That might not even “cause” you to seek. Then someone begins“telling” you about the hidden one. They explain to you who he is and who he is to you. This might grow belief in you. This might give life to a desire to seek. If you don’t reject or deny the hidden one. And even if belief comes alive in you that he exists and even if a desire has been given to you from the messenger, you must still find him. Do you really believe it’s free will that “causes” you to find him? No way! The hidden must “cause” you to find him. Free will is worthless. It’s the hidden ones Will that Matters and not yours. HE MUST Reveal himself, becoming the “cause” of your finding him. It would be disingenuous to claim, “I found him through free will”. Yes at any point you can exercise your Free Will and Reject the messenger, the message, or the hidden one. You can deny the Truth giver, the Truth or God but you can never Find Him without the hidden one Revealing Himself. You must have a messenger sent, you must have a message sent, you must have the hidden reveal Himself to you. Salvation has nothing to do with Free Will. It’s about the Hidden sending messengers to you to birth in you belief. It’s about the message sent that opens your eyes to who the hidden one is and who he is to you. It’s the message itself that births Faith in us. And the message wouldn’t be possible without what the Hidden One did. It’s the Work of The Hidden One Revealing Himself to you through His Son and the Cross. If you believe and actually seek it’s the Result of the The Hidden One, not Free Will. If you believe and actually Find it was “caused” by the Hidden One and not your Free Will. Again the only thing Free Will is good for us to Reject or Deny Truth. It can’t find it on its own. It can’t create belief within one’s self. Only Truth can give birth to belief. It’s not that hard to see God is responsible for our Salvation and we do nothing except what he gives us to do. He give to us belief, a desire to seek and he reveals himself to us. It has nothing to do with Free Will.

You absolutely don't have free will if you believe in an all knowing God. He knows every single thing you'll do in your entire life before you do it. That's by definition not free will.

If there were not free will, God would know that, and would not offer rewards or punishments or issue commandments or judgement of individual deeds etc. Why would all of heaven rejoice over a prodigal that chooses to return - because the Father thought he was lost already.

Calvinistic Pre-DETERMINATION makes God to be INSINCERE when He said in Revelations 2 :26 And to the one who overcomes and continues in My work until the end, I will give authority over the nations .. ( i'm not talking about salvation by the way but about eternal rewards ) .. Calvinism has a perverted view on eternal rewards , it's either utopian communist type of reward system ( where all rewards are equally distrubuted eg rewards of Apostle Paul and a lazy christian is just the same ) or some ELITIST view where God has predestined some elits super christian to receive reward while also predestined some lazy christian to have no reward at all but still go to heaven .

This is GODs earth and he created humans , so he has the power to do whatever he pleases with us or all things on his earth. But because of his free will , we as individuals have the choice of who we choose to believe in, what we do and how we will choose to live our lives. Murders, terrorist attacks and other sinful actions are all premeditated , it’s not just out of random, and Because of free will people have a chose whether to go through with it and do bad or not and remain good. GOD knows and sees all. If GOD was not a GOD of love and free-will he could kill all of us right now ,destroy his earth or control us everyday where we no longer think or act for ourselves- but if he did he would be a dictator and not a GOD of free will. I thank GOD for free will. From the beginning you knew of all our actions and sins but yet you gave us free will to chose to live for you or for the world. I Choose you GOD,JESUS and the HOLY SPIRIT- forever and always 💕

Calvinism honestly is just one logical failure And biblical failure I mean, yes Romans 9 supports Calvinism in a way- but the Bible STILL tells us we have choices we make: which is why we are without excuse. So is the Bible contradictory? Is half of it false? No. That means we have free will and predetermination at the same time. It’s man that makes it a one sided issue. Calvinist’s are basically just people who wanted to have an identity in a book of the Bible.

God not only Knows but he works ALL thing out according to HIS WILL. not according to his foreknowledge, Ephesians 1:4-5 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will Eph 1:11 In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will Eph 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Romans 9:18 Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills, and whom He wills He hardens. Rom 9:21 Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?

This does not follow. A conclusion does not have to be a product of free will in order for it to be true. The conclusion can still be independently true and simultaneously a product of determinism.
