  Could man have free will if God cansee the future?

  by sleepy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  .

  some witness theological beliefs are, man has free will, god can see the future.. i used to wonder how this could work.for if god could see you were going to do something then you must do it, otherwise god is wrong, so therefore you had no choice.. take judas for example.jesus is believed to have known he would be betrayed by him.in fact it is suppossed to have been prophesied in psalms that someone close to him would do so.. if god could see that judas would kill jesus then once this predicion was made judas had no choice no free will to choose not to.so either god can't really see the furture and can just make predictions or man has no free will.if when god looks into the future this causes an event to happen , its gods fault if he see something bad happening , as if he didn't look it would not have been set in stone.. if it is predictions that god makes (not acktual knowledge of what will happen)then what are these based on?.

  knowledge of the human brain and how it works?if so, then man actions are purly based on mechanisms within the brain that are so rigid that you with enought knowledge can know them thousands of years before.so if mans sins it not his fault , theres nothing he can do about it , he has no free will.so god is not just in punishing him.. whichever way it does not work out as fair or logical that a god could see the future and for man to have free will..

  Anderson Committee Move In For Kill

  well it appears the watchtower is back at their executions.

  after jr brown besmirched her moral character by saying she was being disfellowshipped for other sins unrelated to the dateline program, now three men want to meet her at a motel?

  why not the kingdom hall?

  1000 asked to leave Brooklyn Bethel!

  by cyberguy in

  2. friends

  1000 were asked to leave brooklyn bethel (actually, this includes the farm and patterson) "voluntarily!

  " only 6 replied to the request in the last 3 weeks.

  it looks like the "waters" of bethel are drying up, or rather, their revenues are drying up!

  607 chronology debunked

  by JanH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there is no evidence that our time has any specific biblical prophetic importance if the 1914 claims are wrong.even doctrines like the "two-class" system, which is a unique interpretation by the jehovah's witnesses, is actually dependent on the 1914 date.

  the bible states that the final fall and destruction of jerusalem was in the 19th regnal year of nebuchadnezzar (jeremiah 52:12; 2 kings 25:1-4; 2. chron 26:11,19).

  the most secure source of absolute dates comes from contemporary inscription with astronomical observations.
