How can God be 100% fully omniscient, and there be free will...?

Jesus saved him, just as he will those in the rapture on the last day.

Ah, adding to the Bible when the Bible itself does not fit your theology.

 

[Dorothy Mae]

To submit to God's authority and control, the only real way out of sin... That could be a choice, maybe, but then again, God could have made you that way...? Who knows...?

God Bless!

God doesn’t control. If He did, there’s no need for commands.
We are not made so we sin. He didn’t do that either. And there are those who know.

Elijah too....
“And it came to pass, when the Lord would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.” (2 Kings 2:1)

Where is the Devil mentioned here? Please highlight the word “Devil” cause I don’t find it.

“He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.” (1 John 3:8)

Giving a glass of water doesn’t make one good in and of themselves.

If you were lost in sin until God saved you, you cannot take credit for any good you do. If you do, you cheat God out of his glory in saving you.

Your god must be very insecure.


Thanks for proving my point. We make a choice to Yield. To Obey. Or to disobey. God is expecting us to do something.

“For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” (Philippians 2:13)

“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.” (Ephesians 2:10)

Let's not rob God of his glory and say we chose to be good.

Again with the distortion. We choose to follow him or not, as the verse you quoted clearly said. Yes, we are his workmanship. But God is asking, hes not forcing. Sometimes I'd like to experience some of that irresistible grace I keep hearing about. Here in the real world it's much too easy to resist.

If you choose to follow Christ from the goodness of your heart, you get the glory, not God.

Well if God just puts ALL this in a person why does his eyes need to roam throughout the earth
looking for those whose hearts completely belong to him.....
2 Chronicles 16:9

Wouldn't he already KNOW because he put it ALL in them?

It simply says the Lord watches over us and defends us wherever we might be.

God sees your choices as you make them (because he sees and knows everything). But since he is eternal, not bound by time, his entire being is aware of your choice and,... there you have it. God knows your choices even before you make them. Because he was watching as you made them.
