    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    God hasn’t shown me in that your view is true to the one I hold to. Sorry brother I just won’t accept God chose certain people to life and others to hell that paints God as an unloving God, we choose where we go based on our faith in Jesus Your view puffs up the chosen peoples pride and to me...

    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    oh so you are one of the people that believe all babies go to hell since they didn’t have a chance to choose God? Age of accountability and the verse where Jesus says the kingdom of heaven is for the little ones just flies out the window to you hm?

    reddit and tumblr, satan's playground?

    so I tried to witness to a few folks on reddit recently and there is so much misrepresentation of the Bible! I was telling one man that one of God's commandments is to Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.". He said. 'oh but it's not written...

    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    Ya'll are very misguided. Where Satan says I WILL be like God, I WILL be exalted like God, I WILL have a kingdom of my own, etc. etc. Believers, who choose to Trust God are saying: We WILL WORSHIP God We WILL LOVE God We WILL LIVE HOLY LIVES LIKE God We WILL GIVE EVERYTHING to God How is...

    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    Nope. Not what I said. God gives us life, once we choose to accept His gift. He has all the power, all the glory, all the honor. Not us. We simply have to be recipients of his grace and mercy. Never said we were like God, you're putting words into my mouth.

    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    That is the most ridiculous comparison I've ever read! To compare Satan's desire to be LIKE GOD and our free will choice to FOLLOW/LOVE GOD, is like comparing the sun to the moon!! Try again.

    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    Yes, YOUR position. You won't even try to look for scripture, because there is none that biblically supports YOUR claim. The Bible is clear, we have free will. It is stated countless times in scripture but you all continue to ignore or interpret it to your liking where it is YOUR word, not God's...

    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    WRONG Works in the Bible refer to the good works people do, thinking that they can do enough good things to out-weight the bad. (as the catholic's believe you need this in addition to faith). Being able to CHOOSE to follow a Holy God, that is, to put FAITH in Jesus as the one who died for your...

    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    Ya'll are pulling this imaginary 'chosen people' line out of thin air when the scripture explicitly refers to 'all men/women'. Why has your pride gotten in the way of what true scripture says? Yes God chose us before times, but He didn't make us choose Him. He already knows what choice we will...

    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    He might have been talking to His disciples but He was referring to all men , As for your Greek word: anyone τις (tis) Interrogative / Indefinite Pronoun - Nominative Masculine Singular Strong's Greek 5100: Any one, some one, a certain one or thing. An enclitic indefinite pronoun; some or any...

    Hebrews: 27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: 28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation

    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    Practically every scripture in the Bible (both OT and NT) in regards to man's relation to God gives man a CHOICE. I could put a billion different passages here but the one that clearly presents a CHOICE, is in Matthew: Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let...

    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. The 'not of yourselves' is referring to works, no man can do enough good to outweigh the sin to get into heaven. We are saved by God's grace, not works...

    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    I would tell to you the same thing to compare scripture with scripture. Romans is not the only book in the bible. So instead of typing out my summary of this person's enlightening position in favor of free will, I'll just post the link here for you all to peruse: A Free Will Perspective on...

    Does God allow us the free will to choose Him?

    This is a discussion that was originally in the Baptist only section but now is opened to all Christian denominations. Do you believe God grants man the ability to choose to follow His son or go their own way? (Which is what free-will means, the ability to choose on your own) Why or why not?

    Do We Have Free-Will?

    God is saying that He offers salvation , not that He is giving it out to whom he pleases. You need to compare scripture with scripture. O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen...

    Do We Have Free-Will?

    We will have to agree to disagree then. I am sure both of us are still in God's hands no matter whose point is the true one in he end.
