5. Do you believe in Determinism, how does free will and determinism going together? I am asking you this because we can see Jesus foretold many events before it's happen , but the problem is if everything has predetermine how can we have so called "free-will" ? I think only some events are predetermined by God, your thoughts on this issue?

When it comes to God, what we should realize is that he is living in an absoluteness(also known as etenal from our point of view).. we do not see the things in future because our world is confined by time.. God sees everything.. if we look at our dimension from the higher absolute dimension, the past, present and the future will appear absolute and everything will be known, but now you may have a question.. “Did God know that a man will fall into sin?”.. the answer is like this.. God is love.. love always has fruits.. take the example of a family, mother and father falls in love and then because of their love there s a beautiful product, a baby.. so likewise man was a product of love.. if you tell a mother who just had a baby boy.. this baby will grow into a man most evil person, he will leave you and break your heart and bring much shame to you.. what would be her response? She d say..”Never!”, “my baby will never do anything like that, he will grown into a good person who’d love me very much”.. that s the nature of love.. when God created man, he covered his sight of future just like a mother does of her baby.. “God, in love hoped that man would never fail him”.. but when man failed he had to execute another plan, to bring back man into perfection.. this was only possible by the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross.. talking about this plan, you know when you play a video game, the programmers have already set up the perfect story, but there are different approaches, there is a choice to be made even thought there’s a known ending.. someone had to betray Jesus, Judas chose to travel in that path .. it ll be the same for antichrist .. will answer the Rev question when time permits.. tc.

I believe in compatibilism.

Awesome explaination brother thank you very much I got your point

1. What will happen to the people never had an opportunity to know Jesus? I know the dead will arise but not unbelievers right? What happen to people who die before Christ?

God is a just God, everyone honest to their conscience should understand that there is a God of creation because the creation speaks of intelligence and design behind it.. almost every person will get to hear about Jesus at some point of their lives. even if we assume they don't. people who are honest to their hearts will not be cast away by God... and if a person is honest to whatever he or she believes and honest to their own consciences, Jesus will surely speak to them (Saul did what he thought was right until he met Jesus and became Paul).. there are even tribal people who lived in isolated societies who have never heard of Christianity before that received visions of Jesus and found Jesus in their lives.. the most important thing is to be honest to ones heart..

2 These days my study area is "HELL" "What will happen after we die?" so do you believe in Eternal HELL? (Actually I do not think that Hell is Eternal) what do you know about HELL?

The dimensions of our world and the spiritual world are different, our world is made with respect to a measurable time but the spiritual world is made with respect to eternity.. everything in the spiritual world is absolute and there s no such thing as time there... it is seen as eternity from our dimension. Hell is an absolute place of existence away from God.. God is the source of life and love and to be away from him is Death and spite.. in our dimension we can make our choices and change our lives and make them better, but in the other dimension there are no choices.. to make it simpler, think of it as being absolutely bad/ evil whereas God is absolutely good. the human character is fixed and set at death and a person becomes either eternally evil or eternally good.. no further changes are possible.. and all evil belongs in hell, a place complety void of God and the suffering is true..


3. When do you think this rapture will occur? After the 2nd coming or before? Who is going to be taken away, born again Christians? or all who believe in Jesus?

Rapture will occur in 2 stages, first the secret coming for the perfected church and then the matyrs who die without taking the mark of the beast.. the rapture of perfected will happen just before the tribulation period and the dominion of anti Christ.. you ll get all info here

http://www.scribd.com/doc/49448551/Second-coming-of-Jesus

to be born again is a small step in spiritual life.. there s so much more.. different Christian denominations have different levels of satisfaction.. for example as the name implies, salvation army is satisfied with salvation.. the Baptist church theme is “justification by faith” and they are satisfied by it.. but God had an ulimate plan for man..you can read about it here

http://www.scribd.com/doc/49448583/Eternal-Plan-of-God

The purpose of creation is to bring man unto perfection (this is a big topic, so I wont ellaborate on perfection here)

Romans 8:19
For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

Colossians 1:28
Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus

JAM 1:4
But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing

1PE 5:10
But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.

will answer the rest asap..

Wow .... "wisdom from above" mate God bless you


Regarding the Hell

Jesus said;
If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned

we know that braches not burn forever , I think Jesus is talking about 2nd death which is eternal i mean once you suffer for all your sins you cease to exist (2nd death is enternal)

Regarding born again christian you said it is not that important but I think it is very important because when adam & ave sin we spiritually die but Jesus show how to regain it if you do not born again in spirit you will sure die in your sin

Jesus said: "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again."

except these two issues i agree with you

It implies no such thing. Would you care to explain how it does?

Agree with you at this point.
