Better reasons to quit Christianity

[Godscreated]

@ Spokerates, that's interesting, but I'm pretty sue it can not apply to God. I see a couple of problems with having the capacity of omniscience and not using it. First we need to go back a little farther than Adam and Eve, we need to go back to Lucifer's fall. When this took place and God did not see it coming, do you believe God would not have used His omniscience to defeat Lucifer, and once used He would know all.
Second why would God decide not to use one of His attributes, if He had to make a decision not to use it would He not have to use it to make that decision. I can not see anyway He couldn't use His omniscience if He had to make a decision not to use it. For man to have complete free will through out his life, God could never use His omniscience and the scriptures show that He does. Prophecy proves this. God would also have to use His omniscience to create a universe.

Good to be back my friend, though I will not be as active as I have been, life just woks out things sometimes, actually it's God who works out things in my life.

Well, I suppose it could be inaccurate for some atheists to say that seeing what decisions we will make in the future will eliminate our freedom to make those decisions freely in the present. It's a concept I don't quite understand, but was willing to accept for the sake of discussion.

Do you think their premise that omniscience and freewill cannot coexist is correct? If so, do you consider yourself a Calvinist?

No, they are not correct, God is omniscient and we have free will. Like I said, the only decision we make that is of complete free will is to accept God or reject God. The rest is up to God, sometimes He will allow us to chose what we desire and other times God will sway our decision for His will. This is why God's omniscience is so effective for all man kind. and why He has chosen to work through man. It doesn't matter whether God knows the future, we can chose sometimes and sometimes God sway us to make certain decisions and in both cases we do not know whether God intervened or not. Again let me say the only chose that we make of our own free will is salvation. No I'm not a Calvinist.
