"Undiscoverable"

"The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in His temple doth every one speak of His glory." (Psalms 29:9) Having given this verse much thought, and then wondering how it is that God has established those that are His and those that are not, I have determined that there are just some things that we are not meant to know! Unlike the Calvinists, who think they have figured something out, and those that are going to get saved will be saved, and those that won't, well there's no sense in sharing the gospel to them; God really does not work that way! We are all given the chance to accept God's free gift of salvation, in one way or another; it's not His will that anyone should perish, and He is holding out for as many to come to Him as can come to Him. Besides that, if you really study what John Calvin had written, then you would discover he wasn't at all about shutting the door to those that are going to perish anyway; his message was more about God's perfect plan being played out regardless of man's will; which takes on several multiple levels of configurations of circumstance and endeavors, far more than anyone can figure out, who does not have infinite knowledge; and there is only One that has infinite knowledge, and that would be God! Our job is to continue to spread the gospel message to everyone, not trying to determine who is worthy of the message, but to believe that all can receive it, and that all can come to the life saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. If you take all the prophecies of Jesus Christ, and try to figure how they were brought about, the complexity of bringing everything into it's perfect order and perfect existence is mind boggling; and the chances of all 700 plus things all happening out of chance are indescribably impossible. But God, does not have impossible within His vocabulary!!! With God, anything is possible, and everyone can be saved who will be saved..."And when one of them that sat at meat with Him heard these things, he said unto Him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God. Then said He unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many: and sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready. And they all with one consent began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused. And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused. And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come. So the servant came, and showed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind. And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room. And the lord said unto his servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of My supper." (Luke 14:15-24)
