Joel 189: Free Will Proves... God’s Existence! Predestination causes Artificial Intelligence!

We start back into this long process of divulging how it is that Determinism is false. The ancients call it, The Paradox of Man’s Free Will. The Pharisee’s agreed with determinism, but even they had problems with it. This is not a new debate that started around 400 years ago. It goes back a couple thousand years. Is the Omniscience and the Omnipresence of God something that overrides the free will of Angels, humans, and animals? What is neglected there is the Goodness of God, Psalms 36:5-7, and then there is Colossians 1:15-18. Ask, why is there evil because God is good? Is it a possibility to have a paradox with the Lord God Almighty. Step 1) God is Good. Step 2) He’s infinitely smarter than me. Then there’s the Time factor because He says to call upon Him while He is near. Our free will is not a paradox to God. And we’re back to Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorem. Then there’s Deuteronomy 10:17, Romans 2:11... God has no partiality when it comes to salvation. You’ll want to listen with your finger poised above the pause button, because there are many more verses you’ll want to add into your study. Do we expect you to study? Well, it wouldn’t be The Advanced Class if that weren’t the case.

We go over, “What is partiality?” because partiality is sin, and what does time have to do with free will? Time is derived out of consciousness, and now we’re back to Genesis 1:1 and the time pieces God put into place. Clock time is not the same as conscious time. Nobody who believes in Calvinism talks about consciousness and time. Because they don’t know what they don’t know... and they don’t want to know. That’s a problem.

There’s much more from this pastor, so press play.
