Once again, I'm not asking about preaching the gospel.

I'm asking why someone who believes in predestination, needs to worry about the predestineds' souls. Why worry about changing something that is the will of God? Do you think you can over-rule Him?

Instead of going off on the "preaching the gospel" tangent, just answer my question. I'm asking, even though I have a strong suspicion there will be another left turn into the boonies of obfuscation.

This is a question which NEVER gets answered.

If a person REALLY BELIEVES in the cosmic lottery (aka predestination) they should understand that praying and preaching is ABSOLUTELY MEANINGLESS. If EVERYTHING has already been decided, no amount of prayer or preaching is going to change what God has already predestined. If predestination is true, their prayers and preaching are really no different than an Indian rain dance.
