| HISTORIC BAPTIST DOCTRINE ____________ For Those That Still Hold To Free-Will |
| If you believe that God knows all and always has, then why would you use a hypothetical situation of God not knowing the actions of Judas at some point. How does an untrue situation prove a true situation. Anyway let's forget this.
What I truly believe is that God created Judas for the purpose of betraying Jesus. That God created the wicked for the day of evil. I believe that God controls the actions of men, of all men. I do not come to this conclusion by human logic, but by the Holy Scriptures. The Word of God declares... 1. That God hated Esau - I believe it! 2. That nothing is impossible to God - I believe it! 3. That God saved the worst sinner, Paul - I believe it! 4. That man cast lots, but the decision is the Lords - I believe it! 5. That God is the Potter and we are the clay - I believe it! 6. That God chose us before the foundation of the world - I believe it! 7. That the powers that be are ordained of God - I believe it! 8. That God has mercy on whom He will and that He hardens whom He will - I believe it! 9. That God raised Pharaoh up to show His power throughout the world - I believe it! 10. That God does all that He desires and that no one can stay His hand - I believe it! 11. That God Hardened Pharaoh's heart ten times - I believe it! 12. That God created the wicked for the day of evil - I believe it! 13. That all those that are given to the Son from the Father will come - I believe it! 14. That all authority has been given to Jesus and He reveals Himself to whom He wills - I believe it! 15. That no one can come to Jesus, unless it is given to him by the Father - I believe it! 16. That Jesus was stricken for the sins of His people - I believe it! 17. That the wind (Holy Spirit) blows where it wills - I believe it! 18. That a sparrow does not fall from a tree outside the will of the Father - I believe it! 19. That man is dead and can do nothing - I believe it! 20. That goats never become sheep and His sheep hear His voice - I believe it! And I believe that when a band member from Korn receives Christ, then that is the will of God and if the rest of the band members die in their sins, then that too is the will of God.
