The Bible also says that Pharoah hardened his own heart, matter of a fact, that is mentioned before it says that God hardened his heart.
It also says after a few of the wonders that Pharoh harden his own heart. I know for a fact you can run from God since it has been done. I can know things are going to happen and not cause them directly. For example, each year my major in college has a cookout in the fall. I can know it's going to happen and not control it directly. I can also know PT )The dean) wants me to come and CHOOSE not to come. Let me asks you a question Why does the Bible say it is God's will that none shall parish? If He chooses some to saved then clearly the rest will parish and if it says none then that implies it means just that. If the elect cannot and will not parish then that makes no sense.God told Moses that He would harden Pharoah's heart before Moses spoke to Pharoah.
The LORD said to Moses, When you return to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders I have given you the power to do. But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go. (Exodus 4:21)

so you are saying that I am saying God doesn't know everything?Well, there is a wikipedia article on it here. I'm not sure if you will find it to be an accessible introduction, but it should at least explain the concept.

All learning? no I know He is all knowing but He does not force us to accept His grace or follow His will for our lives. For example, I feel that He wants me ( wills me) to go to church mid-week for their mid-week service however I do not wish to go and He has not made me go yet, and even my mother who would like for me to go, however as an adult she no longer pushes the issue.It seems you believe God is all learning, not all knowing. All learning? no I know He is all knowing but He does not force us to accept His grace or follow His will for our lives.

I know I or anyone else can say anything online but my age is actuate I was born summer 91 puts me at 21 does it not?I think ALLorNothing is younger than we think, because he is insisting to think about this subject in very simple terms. To honestly consider this stuff, you have to dive a little deeper.
You seem to be the typical 21 year old. Knowing everything and thinking you can teach us older folks. When the reality is that your brain isn't even fully formed yet.I know I or anyone else can say anything online but my age is actuate I was born summer 91 puts me at 21 does it not?
Though I am so old that my memory is failing I do remember being a 21 year old and full of spunk having the tiger by the tail on a downhill slide. Boy did I think I knew all there was to know and had no qualms about letting anyone know that I did.We have all heard of the various generations, baby boomers, and the X's, Y's and all the others. Recently I have heard they call the present group from 18 to 25-30 the Low Information generation.
Very sad, but it seems to be turning out that way.
