{1} God gave Human Beings Free Will. {2} God knew that a huge number of His creatures would use their Free Will to do evil and end up finally rejecting His love and be lost. But . . . {3} God also knew that a huge-enormous-overwhelming number of His creatures would end up doing the exact opposite of that. So? {4} So God knew that His "net gain" so to speak would be, in percent ratio, for greater than His losses. His net gains in humans saved by far outweigh His human losses. {5} Those finally lost will end up being just a "tiny corner of the Universe" in percent ratio to those salvaged. {6} The final number of Christians in human history will end up being trillions times trillions. No typo. I mean trillions times trillions. What about sufficient time to get this done? {7} The human race is now in its infancy, only about in the Third Grade, historically speaking. We have untold mega-millenniums yet to go before we will graduate up the Fourth Grade. It may take 500,000 years to get us to the Tenth Grade. __________________ Father Time Is The Friend Of Christianity: {8} There are no Biblical reasons why Human History can not continue for say 1,000,000 years. Or much longer. (9} The Human Race has always made progress. You have to compare millenniums, not mere centuries. Compare the progress made in the last 1000 years with how things were in the world 2000 years ago. The year 10,000 A.D. is going to be very impressive. The Bible teaches that the entire world will end up being Christianized. Human history ends up good . . its all good for believers. Revelation 21:3-4 {10} The Bible teaches that the God of the Bible is far bigger than the human mind can conceive and that His Plans for His human project is "off the charts." {11} The God of the Bible is the "God of the Hubble Deep Field" by which I mean that one has to look at the stars and what is actually "out there" in order to get some idea of just how BIG God is --- and just how BIG is His Plan for His Human Race Project. _________________ The 21st Century's God is way to small . . . {12} Ever how BIG you think the God of the Bible is, you are underestimating just how BIG He actually is. Your God will therefore always be "to small." Merely look at the Hubble Deep Field and you see only a tiny fraction of what is actually "out there"-- yet what you see in the Hubble Deep Field is absolutely mind boggling and cannot be comprehended by the human mind because it is so huge-enormous. So? So pause and reflect upon how BIG God actually is. {13} Google will tell you that there has been about 108 billion humans born to date. That is a mere drop in the bucket compared to what is coming. Trillions of humans are coming in the Christian future here on Earth -- a future that is bright, cheerful, full of hope, and optimism for the Human Race. {14} The Bible teaches that the final number of God's people will be in numbers like the stars in the sky and like the grains of sand on the seashore. Trillions times trillions. {15} The book of Revelation which tells about the end of human history says that the final number of the people of God will be a multitude so huge as to be uncountable by human men. Revelation 7:9-10 {16} In other words, God knew that the vast overwhelming majority of His creatures would end up using their Free Will for good purposes and therefore He created the world on those terms. Free Will ends up good for believers. {17} All this above is why Free Will is valuable to God and to His Human Race Project -- and was a morally good move. His human net gains far far outweigh His human losses. {You might say isn't His human losses sad? Yes but that is their choice. See Rev. 3:20} : My thread here at PF.
