It is very interested. The teacher was talking a lot about the Predestination. I guess US History cannot be explained without Bible. He mentioned a contradiction about the Predestination.
{Predestination, in theology, is the doctrine that all events have been willed by God, usually with reference to the eventual fate of the individual soul.[1] Explanations of predestination often seek to address the "paradox of free will", whereby God's omniscience seems incompatible with human free will. In this usage, predestination can be regarded as a form of religious determinism; and usually predeterminism.}
So I made a shot story.
A girl was born in NY. Her parents were Mr. &,Mrs. Brown. She was named Lovie, since borne on Feb 14th.-------As you know, those things are beyond her decision.
Lovie grew up, and became an art teacher. and married with a wonderful man.--------Those are in her freedom of choice.
And then she had a baby. --------This is the point. We do not say that she has a freedom of choice to take care her baby or not. It is her responsibility to take care of her baby. But unfortunately It is often happened to fail to fulfill the responsibility, in the life and human history.
This is a famous verse. "Ask and it will be given you, seek and you will find, knock, and it will be opened to you." Why did Jesus emphasize the need for human effort?
We have been facing so many happening in a daily life. Some is occurred depend on our effort. But also there are a lot of things we cannot control in our lives. For example, day of birth, place of birth, time of birth, and parents, also day of death.
If someone has been controlling us beyond our ability, I guess we can call Someone God.
My conclusion is God predestination cannot be perfected without fulfilling Human responsibility.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gen2/17 God's warning "Do not eat." They could fulfill her responsibility, but they failed to do. And unfortunately they ate.
Also Ten commandments and Jesus --It is human being's responsibility that we believe and are saved or failed to believe and not are saved.
I am going to give this report to my teacher.
