The concept of free will is pretty much totally absent from the Bible. God sounds pretty judgmental here and if free will doesnt exist why did God give us natural disasters knowing he was gunna whipe out people Because it's false and borderline blasphemous. There exists an elect group, but those are separate from those saved by general salvation. There would be no need for the Gospel to be spread and a general call for the whole world to be saved if only the elect could be saved: Jesus could easily just give every elect person a "road to Damascus experience" like he did Saul of Tarsus. Because when you're literally God the all knowing all powerful all loving creator of the universe this... this scenario makes the most sense --- Unfortunately some people are just not built to make it, their habits and instincts will put them right back to struggle. <cite>Yao posted [p:924398860] in Something ...
