[quote:Wingedlion:MV8xNDgwNzM4XzI0MzkwMzQ4XzZBN0Q5RkM=] [quote:Relative deviance] I am curious as to how one who is raised to believe in freewill and also in biblical or other prophesy deals with the obvious contradiction. If prophesy is to be fulfilled and it relies in any way on actions of man then there can obviously be no freewill for any unplanned action by any man could upset the outcome. [/quote] But only if TIME is in a state of flux which it is not. Everything that can or will be done...has already happened, that keeps freewill intact, and prophecy 100% perfect, calling the end from the beginning. Eccelesiastes 3:14-15 explains this perfectly, how that God requires that which is past, means that God only holds us accountable for the things which we have already done, not the things that we are going to do in the future...which has already occurred.
