No,there are ppl that say we are predestined but what would the point be ? there wouldn't be free will,as some say" are you saved" or that ppl can" back side" .
I f that didn't make since try........if God knew who was predestined why allow them too be?
Who could have done this? but let them grown up together lest ......what?
you don't know what tomorrow might bring,how can they say predestined?

That is interesting. I don't personally believe so, but think of this. If you are Christian you believe that God gave us free will. You also believe that God is all powerful and all KNOWING. Therefore he knows everything that has happened, and everything that is going to happen. You also believe that God created you. So if God created you, KNOWING everything you were ever going to do (kind of like a computer program....which doesn't have free will) doesn't that mean everything you do is predestined, which means you DON'T have free will?

I don't think so.
I think life is like a big road trip from Florida to Washington State.
There are many different roads we can drive on, and we're free to make stops wherever we want to.
We all travel in different vehicles, at different speeds and use different maps but the end result is always the same.
Bottom line- We're all going to end up in the same boat in the end, I think it's our choice as to how we get there.
