“The fact that God knew everything
before creation and did it anyway
leads me to conclude that God is
the cause of everything. You may
not see how it is for his pleasure.

Here is a verse to start.

Heb 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author
and finisher of our faith; who for the
joy that was set before him endured the
cross, despising the shame, and is set
down at the right hand of the throne of
God.

God is willing to do what is necessary
in order to accomplish his goal. Birth,
death and resurrection were always part
of his plan (See Gen 1:1-3). Much of what
we know of God’s character is found in
his word. I find it hard to imagine
that he would have put Christ on the
cross if there were an easier way.”

Everything “for His pleasure” again.

Are we back to God creating sin and evil
for His pleasure?

Are we back to TOM and THE JUDGE?

Are we back to “All means ALL and
that’s ALL, ALL means”?

Post some of your most unusual conclusions.
So I can see where you “want to go” with all this.

They ALWAYS have some where they “want to go”
when there is a strange idea afoot.

Best.
