That is truly a great looking car, wow.

That's absolutely awesome, the American Mediterranean. All we need to do ... is annex Mexico and it's ours.

I'm just responding to YOUR post, you said, "Foreknowledge about whom ... ?" and I'm answering you. So we agree, it's the saints mentioned in Romans 8:27—that's great. So now we can focus on the second part of your question, " ... predestination to what?" We know and agree that it's...

You don't think it's "the saints" in Romans 8:27? You think the scattered twelve tribes was symbolic for everybody? You're going to go to Acts 9er jail for that take. I don't see any reason why the foreknowledge doesn't apply to both individuals and to groups.

You had to eat the Passover, eating the Passover was symbolic already, what you're saying is that we eat symbolically—the symbol. That is symbolism twice removed. Don't you see how that makes zero sense? Don't you ALL see that? What you're saying is that we eat the symbol OF THE SYMBOL of...
