[QUOTE="Carl Emerson, post: 73986472, member: 405011"] Why is it so hard to conceptualise a God who can see future outcomes yet decides not to manipulate those outcomes. Otherwise as you say, judgement would be a foregone conclusion. He does however choose His chosen giving them grace to believe unto salvation, but their eternal rewards are tied to freewill decisions they make. This He does not manipulate. I think also that logic has limitations in this realm of investigation because the pathway to salvation is a matter of heart rather than mind, being a faith entrance not a rational conclusion. On the other hand God does tolerate us using the experimental method to investigate His existence. Ask Him with all your heart if He is real and He loves you, and you will get an answer. [/QUOTE]
