    No, I do not believe that God "intentions" all that occurs to come to pass. I do believe however, that in his omniscience he knows all that has, does and will come to pass. I also believe it is because of his sovereignty that all that does come to pass will work to the final fruition that He has determined. I most certainly am convinced that He can and does alter atoms, molecules, thoughts, words and actions in order to move in ways according to His wisdom.

    You must admit that it has been debated to ad nauseam. Shall I explain that to you in depth or do you comprehend it?:D

    And yet...you continue posting in the same debates. Don't bother explaining it to me. I'm southern and too stupid to comprehend. Must be all that possum stew.

    John 10:17-18 (KJV)
    17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
    18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

    I have heard that if you eat one that has been killed with a shotgun, it has a pretty good supply of iron.....and women need their iron you know, Sister Amy. :wavey:

    Don't eat one that has been killed by a motor vehicle. My neighbors say that they taste is kinda flat......LOL :tongue3: :D :love2:

    Agreed, God does not bring everything to pass in the sense He is directly involved in doing the deed.

    I do agree with you that God is not involved in directly doing those deeds.
