Warning: Thoughts on Christianity from someone that is not a priest, preacher, or minister, might be important to international regulation
God’s Plan (nondeterminism vs free will)
I am a Christian. Not sure exactly where I fall on the matter.
I want other people to be in Heaven after this life.
People are not ideal sin out, sin leads to death. Yet Christ died for our sins, and I remember a quote from The Bible about there is no condemnation under Christ. The combination does not equate to sin is good or consequence free. Reminder don’t judge, comprehension is many times less than ideal.
Problem the idea God has a plan, it might be set to humans know that plan, might be used as leverage to control others.
Marriage – if people want to get divorced, people might say but that is not God’s plan, don’t you want the best for your life?
Were people set to the right other people in the first place?
If sin do we not get prayers answered, won’t get to the see the best for our life?
If we can’t change God’s plan, if we don’t have free will, it might seem like no matter what we do we couldn’t change it. It might lead to the belief that sin or sin doesn’t matter, yet less sin has potential to add and change a lot of things at least in my opinion.
Now what if some people group up in a Church and say this is God’s plan for your life. What Church would say it, how do you know that Church is the right Church (Baptist or Catholic – both know God’s plan?). Other Churches might use it as a way to create incestuous or other types of marriages people didn’t want in the first place.
In another case Churches might need to convince people to work towards something using the idea it is God’s plan for their life.
If God has a plan, will He tell us what it is? If He tells people what it is could it be set to they are right and I am wrong? Could Christians have health problems, less than ideal training or teaching that could lead to voices in the head, or things interpreted incorrectly? If some people hear voices, some people hear God’s voice or are sent dreams by God, how do we know the difference? Combination might tempt judgment, and The Bible says don’t judge. A leveraged priest or minister could be forced to say they have God’s plan and that could be useful in non-ideal ways.
Diff on God’s plan vs sin? If God has a plan and we use computers, computers that are less than ideal sin out – and many other engineering systems for that matter, does that equate to we are so far off God’s plan that it starts mattering less? Would like to think God’s plan won’t leave us miserable at the end of the day, and can’t be so dramatically altered by sin that is in society. Bring in Artificial Intelligence really powerful computing, potential to turn up drastic and dramatic changes swiftly, yet does that equate to those changes were not part of God’s plan in the first place?
