Does anyone have a good explanation of predestination? I had a friend ask me if I believe in predestination and I told him that I do not. But after thinking about it I realized that my beliefs about God require me to believe in predestination. I believe that God is omnipotent(all powerful) and omniscient(all knowing). Therefore, God knew when he created me exactly what path my life would take. He knew what beliefs I would have, whether I would accept or deny Christ, when and how I would die, etc. So if he knew what decisions I would make, I would not have the ability to make an alternative decision because that would mean he was wrong about what I would do. I had never really thought about it much until he brought it up and now I have a different view on predestination. Does anyone have any thoughts about this topic or does anyone disagree with me? I would appreciate any input.
