So then why bother if you’re predestined????
What is it that you think I should not bother to do? If you refer to me telling you about the Scriptural position on pre-destination, then the answer is: Because I am told to do so.
That you may be disturbed to be trapped in a world where God is actually God and managing every single detail about your life, my life, every life, is really not my concern. My directive is to explain the truth and allow God to do with whatever He decides with that.
To live in the illusion that you are the captain of your fate, the master of your destiny is to live in an error.
