Just because I wasn't presently fishing doesn't mean I needed it to fulfill myself.
You’re right. It means you were wanting to be experiencing something (the act of fishing) that you were not presently experiencing. You’re making this more complicated than it is.
Quote:God has already and has always been doing what He desires
If he always had it, and was always doing it, then he doesn’t have any wants, now does he? How do you want something you already have?
Quote:That’s why He is omnipresent, He loved us before the actual creation and He also was there at the end of time before He actually created us.
Um, what?
Quote:Being omnipresent gives God abilities we can't even begin to understand
Yet you seem to think you understand them well enough to tell me I’m wrong about them, lol.
Quote:and this is obvious by your continued insistence that He couldn't have been fulfilled when the Bible tells us He was self-fulfilled before the creation.
And if he was self-fulfilled before the creation, then he wouldn’t have wanted to create anything.
