RE>>But my point is that the accusing is different than the devil looking to destroy.<< That was my point so we are making the same point or agreeing ! RE>>Moses put himself in front of them<< God is the one who put Moses in front of HIMSELF... Moses was chosen before He was ever born as a TYPE of Christ ! All the Children were killed by Pharoah when Moses escaped Just as all the Children were killed when Jesus was born God PLANNED it before the World Began. Moses was chosen by God Moses did not chose God. Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. All things work togeather for GOOD because God ordained whatsoever come to pass. For the called RE>>I think that God in His wisdom knows who will believe but desires for all to believe<<, This is a common belief but very WRONG !!! Did you see my post 1228 on " The common Idol ?" There are many verses that teach that God does not want "all" to believe and Hides His truth from them ! God hardened Pharoah Heart otherwise He would have caved into the miracles. Romans 9:18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth. Exodus7:3 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt. God Hardened Pharoahs heart SO THAT He would show his miracles to all the Elect throughout all the ages ! Exodus 9:12 And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had spoken unto Moses. God hardens and make deaf The Lord softens and makes the hearing ear. Nancy you are wrong about me being "frustrated" that people can't hear me. The "CALLED" are slow to hear and the " passed over " will never hear ! That is their portion . Jesus said this was BASIC ! John 3:10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? RE>>garments not being right for a banquet << Who put the best robe on the Prodical Son --- The sinful "SON" or the "FORGIVING FATHER" The Robe of Righteousness is a Gift From God and "not of ourselves" People preach that Men have a FREE WILL concerning salvation ! When was Pharoah offered salvation ??? Never ! God chose him as well before he was born as a vessel of Wrath ! Romans 9:15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. 16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. You know the story of Jonah: Let me ask you a question... After Jonah spent 3 days and 3 nights soaking in the digestive juices of a great fish... Struggling for air, perhaps wishing he had the power to just let go and die ,without sleep, thinking about how God had put him there because he refused to listen ! === DID HE STILL THINK HE HAD FREE WILL ?? === RE>> I would like for you to join us. << I don't think your sentiments are shared... I have quoted tons of scripture today from John... Go see :-} I doubt anyone noticed :-} Thanks for you sentiments... Tell Colleen that ALL THINGS are working together for Her Good because all things are in God's plan for her life . 2 Peter 1:3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Thanks for the INVITE Nancy !
