Free Will being an illusion does not mean we are all predestined to our actions. While the universe is deterministic, it is also chaotic.If you are a believer in "Predestination" free will is of no matter.
It doesn't matter what you do, either you are destined to be saved or not
The God of the OT was the One born as Jesus Christ. He said He came to REVEAL the Father -- meaning, before His appearance, no one knew of the other Being we now know as the Father.God of the OT was evil. (according to scripture).
We are. Look where it for us.God defines good and evil. Not you.But god DID do evil by killing nearly everyone in his flood.
Why can't we define good and evil?

Have you EVER let your child learn from experience?Certainty if one has read the bible you know he hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and also destroyed the Egyptians due to using Hebrews as slave labor, and yet the Christians used blacks as slave labor. He also encouraged genocide on the Canaanites. God of the OT was evil. (according to scripture).
Also he allowed Lucifer to attack Job and bring him near death.
So like he said (God) he has created good as well as evil.

Life is so much more than this current existence. This time we live in now is TRAINING to expose and cleanse our character. God knows what He is doing.
The notion of ‘free will’ is itself further proof that there is no ‘god’ as perceived by theists, a contrivance of man used as an excuse as to why evil exists.
Indeed, an omnipotent deity would not only have the capacity to foresee the future, but it would also have the capacity to control the actions of individuals, eliminating any ‘need’ for ‘free will.’
Absent the ability to foresee the future and control the actions of individuals, a ‘god’ wouldn’t be omnipotent, and consequently unworthy of worship.
And the bible doesn’t ‘teach’ anything – the bible was written by men, imbued with man’s fear, ignorance, and hate, as fallible as man himself.
The argument that the bible ‘teaches’ anything fails as an appeal to authority fallacy.
We can choose to do good, or we can choose to do evil. Is this true, or isn't it?
Yes. My phone changes my words, I sware.The God of the OT was the One born as Jesus Christ. He said He came to REVEAL the Father -- meaning, before His appearance, no one knew of the other Being we npw know as the Father.God of the OT was evil. (according to scripture).

What?
Interesting that the libs see themselves as victims without choice.Freewill is an illusion, we are a product of our environment, ie, where we were born, who we were born to, education, genetics, and everything that happens in our life's. I should add, and ones perception of events.
You're not getting it. It's not that we don't "make choices", it's that they arent conscious choices. It's not something for you to whine or prattle on about...it's confirmed fact.Interesting that the libs see themselves as victims without choice.Freewill is an illusion, we are a product of our environment, ie, where we were born, who we were born to, education, genetics, and everything that happens in our life's.

Sure it's true, but the process of "choice" is not conscious. You have made the choice before you are aware the choice has been made.

The choice was made in your brain before you were aware it was made.Sure it's true, but the process of "choice" is not conscious. You have made the choice before you are aware the choice has been made.
How so?
Sure, to a degree, the results of our choices affect our future choices.You are the product of those choices.
Yes, I understood that part. I am asking you how the choice is made.The choice was made in your brain before you were aware it was made.
