Destiny-Predestined and Freewill are Gods' Gift to US Pg. 1

Hello everyone, someone asked me what the Bible meant by saying we are predestined before the foundation of the earth. Now I used to have trouble with the word predestined and the idea that we have free will, the two don’t mix very well. Thank God, the Holy Spirit used me to explain not only to the guy but to me. Whoever translated this verse missed the mark because the word Destiny means fate or the power of inevitability, that means it’s going to happen no matter what you do. That kind of shoots the promise of free will down. However, this is what the Holy Spirit said through me. God designed us before the foundation of the universe and he sees the past, present and the future all at the same time. He knows every choice we are going to make through out our entire life, the good and the bad, but that doesn’t lessen the fact that it is still us who makes the choices. If we are destined to do this or that, then we would not truly have a choice at all, this would mean no free will. Now here is the glory of God’s love for us all, even though he knows all of our mistakes beforehand and he knows the pain we are going to cause ourselves and others and in doing this cause him pain, he still gave us life and freewill. The glory of God’s love and mercy leaves me awestruck. The Devil tricks so many of the Fathers’ lost children into believing that God is this white bearded guy who is set apart and judging us for being human and wants to subjugate us to his or else he punish us for all eternity. This is a complete lie. God is our loving Father who cries when we hurt, laughs when we laugh and worries about us when are tricked into doing stuff that’s against our own best interest. Just like any human father who tries to raise their children. After all, he is the pattern they are built on. Even though he wants us to make the right choices he doesn’t force us to because he loves us no matter what we do, because
