Re: Entering the Gate of God

Yes, I already knew that, however, this was done by the foreknowledge of God. I know there is a lot of controversy and debate about predestination, but the Bible is clear that we were predestined by His foreknowledge. The Bible is clear that God gives man free will to choose to except the free gift of salvation given to mankind by God. No where in the Bible does it state that we are just puppets in the hands of God. Yes, God is sovereign, but this sovereign God chose to give us free will.

"For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren." Romans 8:29(KJV)
