funny leh.

this was what i read in the "Revival Year Sermons", 1859.

" Perhaps some of God's professed people will leave you; you will have to go without a solitary friend-maybe you will even be deserted by Sarah herself.... yada yada"

Sigh... that was the hardest part to take in.
Deserted by Sarah, as in taking into context you're abraham.

Well. okay erm. this sermon's interesting, its about.... (drumrolllL!)

taadaa! PREDESTINATION! (throws glitters)

Well, somtimes i wonder if predestination should be one of the main doctrines...
I mean, besides salvation being the system of grace and faith, isnt it important to know how grace and faith works?
As in... how does faith come about if humans are supposed to be so opposed to God?
Then what about grace? Hasn't grace come to everyone? Then why didnt the whole world become christian?

Wheres the distinction between love, dying on the cross, and love as in love to children of God?
What about the objects of wrath in the book of Romans?

interesting right. Dont say predestination is cheem crap. Its important, it concerns the nature of calling.

Well anyway, i was talking to my bible study budd today.
Apparently life IS a drama.

According to charles spurgeon, at the begining begining, there was the trinity council.
Father: I'm going to create humans, they'll rebel against me, but i will save them.
Son: For everyone you intend to save, i shed my blood for them and i will intercede for them.
Spirit: For everyone who is saved and has the blood of Jesus i will enter and dwell within him, and i will safeguard and guarantee his salvation.

The script was written even before the props came to life.
The script was written even before the PA and backstage crew (angels) were created.

WOW.
A drama indeed.
