***He created us last (actually woman was last - that’s why they look better than us). ***

Finally, something we can agree on. :>)

We will judge the angels, once we are sanctified in heaven. On earth, we are still sinners and judge to know one.

You seem to have this big problem with God being in charge of everything. I find it a comfort that God has control of my life, and my salvation. It’s not up to me, it’s up to God. Whew :>)

Well, here’s the problem.

If you absolve yourself of any responsibility for your life, then that goes against Rev 20 as well as Matt 25.

If you say that God is responsible, then how do you account for the Judgements as to what you have done? I understand that there is a relief that somebody else is responsible for what you’ve done, but Calvin doesn’t have the Gospel proof, never mind the NT proof.

The “elect” don’t get a pass. You, as well as me, have to stand in front of the Lamb and answer for our lives. We have to answer for our talents. We have to answer for whether we fed the hungry, gave drink to the thirsty, read to the blind, visited those in prison, counselled the Calvinists, and redeemed the Reformed. If not, we’re going to be be cast into hellfire forever.

I just hope that He judges my little forays into FR to be worth something.
