ON PREDESTINATION

PRE-DESTINATION OR FAITH.

THE QUESTION OF PRE-DESTINATION V/S FREE-WILL IS A LONG STANDING ONE.

LET’S CLARIFY.

STATEMENT: THE LORD HAS CALLED ME FROM MY MOTHER’S WOMB.

 TRUE OR FALSE?

THAT’S AN ILLUSION. LET’S ANALYZE IT

1. God (as gas-“O”) exists in each and every human being.
2. He is there in you and is aware of you right from your mother’s womb colloquially.
3. He remains quite and gentle. (Ref: Our science blog, I am not intrusive by nature.)
4. Suppose a time comes for you to be called to do his work.  You hear his voice. He takes pains to show you he is not a ghost and that he is God. He reminds you of many incidents that have taken place in your life since childhood. Incidents that nobody else except you, are aware of. Now comes a feeling within you that says yes, he is God, and I have been called right from my mother’s womb to do a job; Or as far back as one can remember and that (memory retention) is not the same for every person. Free Will? Yes, although a feeling of predestination might be there.

  I would recall that Judas sold Christ for thirty pieces of silver. He Judas, had a job to do. He was called to play a part in the life of Christ. He was under the grip of the Evil One? He succumbed for the love of money. How irresponsible was he in himself for selling Christ in this drama? He had to play his part and so could be absolved of his crime.  Actors may be called to play a part; therefore the biggest crime you could possibly commit is pre judging people who have committed a crime. How do you know a person was not recruited by God to play the role? In which case he will be forgiven in heaven. Pre-destination?

I was prompted by El-Shaddai to bring to Fr. Comos’s notice certain incidents that had taken place in his early (prior ordination) life. Incidents that no one other than a very close friend might have known about. How could I have come to know about it would set him thinking unless of course it was given to me by T.H.S. Its purpose was to confirm to him that he was the Pope of Christ.  Comos was called to the Holy Priesthood by T.H.S. Was he called to his vocation from his mother’s womb? I doubt it. He was our first pope.

I hope this brief explanation will suffice. Free will wins by a huge majority an occasional predestination for an “actor role” might occur. But by and large it is free will that wins.

On faith without deeds? Well that may be O.K. in another religion. In Christianity its required even if it is a token amount to signify you are in agreement  of what we have been saying all along that “ THE HAVES SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THE HAVE NOTS,” all within your means of course.  

I have written the above brief article with permission from EL-Shaddai to help those plagued by this dilemma, (this after reading from the exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola) to the best of my ability.
