I agree that much of my life has not yet happened (I'm hoping anyway :>) I agree that I will make many decisions that have never before been made and that they are first time decisions.


At the same time, I know that God knew what they would be, and that none of them will be other than what He knew would end up being the case.

That is BOTH "free will" and "predestination."

I agree. From what I understand about everyone on the "To:" line, we're going to live forever! In that sense, much of our lives have not yet happened.

If that's how you define it, then we're in agreement. I would call it free will and omniscience, but if we get the same place, we get the same place.
