Predestination

The bible states many different opinions and "facts" on predestination. I say "facts" because that is what one is led to believe that the bible teaches. In one area the bible says that a certain number was chosen at the start and that the number will neither increase nor decrease. Yet in another section it states that god chose all and man chooses his fate although god already knows it. Certain people become utterly and totally confused by these contradictions. I was one of them until I fashioned my own judgement and beliefs on the subject. I believe that everyone was predestined before they were born and that some people were predestined to go to hell. Although many people dislike this harsh thought one must question if it wasn't this way then why would such a loving god create a hell or for that matter give us free will. It seems a bit sadistic in the sense that he created certain ones to suffer.

The bible also states that god is a merciful god and doesn't like to see his children suffer. This also creates controversy in that it totally disproves the theory that I had taken to. Which is a theory that many have long since related to. But if the bible says that


The bible has always been chock full of contradictions to itself and yet so many people follow what it says purely because they feel they must. Then there are the logical thinkers who, when encountered with the Christian faith, refuse to believe in it because they do not possess an ability to conjure up a blind faith. I respect those who do believe in it in light of its many rebuttals and recants, because these people are some of the most holy people in the world purely by way of there blind and loving faith. If predestination does exist then I honestly and truly fear for my well being. If it does not then it will make difficult decisions so much harder so one is to be sure of making the decision that will work for the blessed outcome.

The bible states that those who were chosen will forever be in his glory. It also mentions universal salvation in terms of god bestowing his love and forgiveness on all of us. But I ask how can universal salvation exist if the bible says itself that god chose a certain number of people to be his own? I do not have the answer and I have yet to meet someone who does. But I can provide a few theories. The theory that god predestined
