Sonart,

No, you don't... you came here to evangelize. Hardly the Christian thing to do, mathew... start off a new thread with a lie.
Well sonart, can you read minds or something? no seriously, flush my opinions, go throw my facts down a hole. I came here to learn what other people think, and then to say what I believe.

So here it is... the ultimatum.

Mathew, I have a little test I'd like you to take, but before I get to that, let me ask you. Is God the creator of all things, all knowing and all powerful? Is everything that happens in the universe the will of God? And if so, isn't every choice we make also God's will? Therefore it obviously can't be our will, now, can it?

Nah... I don't believe in God and I'm not going to Hell. Hey, God works in mysterious ways, right? If you believe in Hell, you're welcome to it.
Dear me, are you serious? Yes, God is the creator of all things, all knowing and all powerful. But even though he knows everything, and has the power to do anything, the things that happen are not of his will, but mans. Look at the biblical story of adam and eve. Why would he let us take the apple if he knew we were going to, and not stop us? He gives us free will, so we can make our own decisions. It is not all his will, but our will. It's your choice not to believe in christianity. I won't make that choice for you.


I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.

I gave in, and admitted that God was God.
C. S. Lewis
