God knows all things and has an ineffable plan, right?
- 1st John 3:20 For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.
- Acts 15:8 Known to God from eternity are all his works
- Proverbs 15:3 The eyes of the LORD are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good
- Isaiah 46:10 Declares the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things which have not been done, saying, ‘My purpose will be established, and I will accomplish all my good pleasure
He even knew that Jesus would have to come to die on the cross (to forgive the sins he knew we were going to commit in advance by sacrificing himself to himself) before he even created the world.
- 1st Peter 1:20 He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake.
And even though he created it knowing that everything was going to happen just the way it happened…
He still punishes people, he still kills people (Just read numbers) and he still sends people to Hell for doing exactly what his supposedly holy plan required.
He required suffering from good people. He allowed the bad to prosper and in fact made them that way.
I’m sure some apologist will come to correct me with the, “No, you send yourself to hell by rejecting god” That is bullshit, we just showed that is absolutely not true. If God knew in advance that we would fail again and again and again and specifically created this world with these failed people and it’s part of his super deluxe really cool divine plan and couldn’t have happened any other way then we were set up to fail.
If he knew this all before the world began then the free will argument is an absolute myth. We could not have made any other choices than the choices we made.
And still, he gets mad… again and again and again.
Of course, I don’t believe any of this. How can you?
Oh… and he knew I’d write this… it’s all part of his plan!
