Re: fear and trembling

Yep, just a lot of trash pride and baggage to cat in the purifying fire. Else there's no real spiritual growth to speak of.

Predestination I'm cool with. He knows our hearts even before he sends us here, and knows future, past and present perfectly. Everything else outside of Yahweh (God) are subject to what they are told and learn through experience.

But that's part of the joy...?
One gets to discover God and who one is... Once one's willing to give up playing god.
