Well, in Biblical text it tells us that some people are chosen by God, and woven together for his purpose, in their mother’s womb- and that these people existed from the foundation of the world. (Psalm 139:13)

These are God’s chosen children.

But remember God is love and has the spirit of adoption. He welcomes all. In our Father’s house there are no favorites- not even his chosen, are his favorites.

What that means is that anyone CAN be in the family of God and that person inherits the Kingdom and the promises of God, JUST the same as the chosen. (Romans 2:11) BUT they have to choose God first.

We have all been given a seed of faith. (Romans 4:16) That seed of faith grows by hearing the word of God. (Romans 3:22)

In America is is highly unlikely that someone has not heard the word of God, somewhere. When they hear the word of God, there is a still small voice that will tell them to move toward the light and find out more about God.

Some people will move toward God- and some just won’t.

It is the story of the sower, that might shed light on that. There are people who are going to rebel until the very end and then dwell in a very dark and uncomfortable place-because they would not let their ego down- and search for the light.

It starts, ultimately, with God’s design. In truth, there are some people who are nothing more than dust.. and there are people who are evil.

In the book of Job we learn that Satan exists and works under the authority of God.

Our trials in life, and how we handle evil people- are God’s great mercies for us.

Sometimes the answer to that question is that that it starts with God’s design, and these people exist for God to show us how to make the right choice and stay on the right path.

The children of God have been given authority, tools and skills of the Priests , to speak the word of God so powerfully that they can bring people to the feet of Jesus, so that they too can be saved.

That is why Jesus commands us to go out and do that- and change our world.

All of these bad things, could be a sign that the faithful children of God have not been doing their job. (Food for thought)

“Some people will move toward God- and some just won’t.”

Just won’t or will be pulled from God. Depends on how you look at it.

Atheism was declared a religion by the U.S. Supreme Court. After the June 17, 1963 ruling the Wall Street Journal commented that atheism was now “the one belief to which the state’s power will extend its protection.”

Hence, God has been systematically removed from the classroom at every level.

And here we are.
