Robert,

I hesitate doing this, but just consider one verse...

Romans 8:29
For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.

What did God foreknow about people? Why did he predestine the people he did? Why does the Bible reference so many verses referencing the free will to choose in belief? Can it be BOTH are true at the same time, salvation by predestination and also free will, and that's why the Bible clearly talks about both?

I understand for the people challenged to understand, for those without open hearts and minds, this would be an extremely hard concept to understand...

I probably should not have posted this (as I did it more for others who might want to understand), and will go no further with it...

God Bless,
IGIT
