This is also my first blog...yeah...I was reading Ephesians tonight and the same question always arises....are we predestined? This question kills me. I know that no matter what conclusion I ever come to I will still know that I am human and I will never completely understand until I can ask the maker Himself. Anyway, Paul makes it seems clear in Ephesians 1 that we are predestined, but when asking my prof last year about this passage he said that we are all predestined to come to Christ but not all of us make that decision. I like that answer the most. I have a close friend who believes that some of us are chosen and some are not. I see the biblical references that he is using to support that and I don't enjoy it much. Though I read those and think that he may be right, I cannot believe it. I'm not sure if it is because I have always been taught the "arminian" way or if the Holy Spirit is saying, "um Carly, don't believe that." Any thoughts? I'd be glad to listen (or read)
