I've been thinking about the reformed faith since we have a few members here of that belief system.
The more I ponder on the teachings of that world view...the more it seems totally unbelievable and the less
sense it makes.
This morning this came to mind:
God is a sinner.
Why?
God gave us the 10 commandments to follow.
God is a holy God and in Him there is no darkness. 1 John 1:5
He expects us to follow the 10 commandments if we want to be with Him for eternity.
So then why does God sin?
If God decreed, preordained, predestined, predetermined, everything that is to happen to each man, as Calvin taught and the Westminister Confession of Faith teaches....
Then God is CREATING and CAUSING sin and He is thus a sinner.
They that COMMIT, cause, the sin...are the ones sinning.
So, the end result is that God is a sinner and does the very things He tells us not to do.
