The bible is a spiritual book.  God is a Spirit, not a religion.  No religion can get you to God, He must be worshiped in spirit and in truth.  

God’s Words have definitions, but also spiritual meanings, concepts and applications.

Yes, many philosophical and theological views argue fate and free will can coexist, often by defining them as different aspects of life, like fate setting the destination and free will determining the path, or by seeing them as interwoven forces, where your choices (free will) create your destiny (fate). However, traditional viewpoints often see them as mutually exclusive, suggesting if everything is fated, free will is an illusion, and vice-versa.

How they can coexist (Compatibilist Views)

Paths to the Same End: You have free will to choose between many options, but all those options ultimately lead to a predetermined final outcome (fate).
The Journey, Not the Destination: Fate might set general life events, but your choices (free will) dictate how you experience or navigate those events.
Cause and Effect: Your free choices and actions (free will) are the very factors that create your destiny, making them intertwined rather than opposing forces.
Religious Frameworks: Many faiths propose God’s divine plan (fate) encompasses human choice (free will), with humans making real decisions that fulfill a larger, pre-known purpose.

Why they are seen as conflicting (Incompatibilist Views)

Determinism: If every event, including your decisions, is a predetermined outcome of past events (determinism), then true free will—the ability to choose otherwise—doesn’t exist.
Absolute Predetermination: If fate dictates everything, your feeling of making choices is just a reaction, undermining moral responsibility and genuine choice.
Ultimately, whether fate and free will coexist depends heavily on how you define each concept, with many perspectives finding harmony by viewing them as complementary aspects of human experience and destiny.

We can be influenced, but yes…we have free will to choose.

Jesus has invited you back into a healthy relationship and fellowship with God through accepting Him and what He has done for you. He wants to bring you back into the family again and to take part in His future plans and purpose for all of His creation. He has given you free-will to decide.

SALVATION IS AVAILABLE TO ANYONE, BUT IT HAS TO BE ACCEPTED. IT IS A FREE GIFT OFFERED FROM GOD – HIS WAY -ONLY TROUGH JESUS

[Mat 7:14 KJV] Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
[Jhn 14:6 KJV] Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

IT’S A GIFT – HE BOUGHT IT FOR YOU – IT CAN NOT BE EARNED ON YOUR OWN MERIT

[Eph 2:8 KJV] For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God:
[Eph 2:9 KJV] Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Therefore, salvation is a free gift. God freely made a way to save you from the eternal death penalty of sin & His righteous judgement for sinners. This offer can only be accepted or rejected by believing and putting your faith in Jesus and His righteousness, not your own self-righteousness or methods.

Jesus always was, always will be, and He is the Beginning and the End. He is the Truth, and there is no sin in Him. God is not a man, that He should lie, and of course He has free-will.
Since He made us in His image He granted us all free-will to live and make choices as we go. He did not make us robots who have no say in their programming.

Sadly we continue to hurt ourselves and other parts of His creation. He is patient, and willing to be merciful, not wanting us to suffer death, and to prove it He came in a form we could see and know Him in. He lived just like us, but as the Son of God He lived perfect. He made Himself available to be The Savior of mankind to all those who believe.

You either believe He came to pay for your salvation, and is alive, and because you believe that you have put your faith in Jesus to perform His promises, or you don’t.

As for our relationship with God, through Jesus God has proved His love for us all by sending His Son Jesus to die in place of us, and in order to pay for sins we’ve committed when we profess His Son’s righteousness and not our own.

[Jhn 14:6 KJV] 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
[Jhn 8:24 KJV] 24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.
[Mar 8:34-35 KJV] 34 And when he had called the people [unto him] with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. 35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel’s, the same shall save it.
[Luk 24:45-47 KJV] 45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, 46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: 47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

AI Overview

Whether a cyborg has free will is a deep philosophical question with no easy answer, but generally, current AI/cyborgs lack true free will because their actions stem from programming, not genuine self-generated intention, though advanced AI might blur this line by making complex, autonomous decisions within parameters, making them seem free, much like humans debate if their free will is an illusion. If a cyborg’s “will” is just complex programming and input processing (like adaptive learning), it’s not free; if it develops genuine self-awareness, goals, and choices independent of its initial code (like a truly conscious being), the answer changes.

Arguments Against Cyborg Free Will:

Programming: Like AI, cyborgs operate on algorithms; any “choice” is a complex output of their code and environmental data, not self-originated will.
Lack of Intentionality: They don’t possess the inherent intentionality (mental states directed at the world) that underpins genuine moral agency or free choice.
Determinism: Even complex human decisions are argued by some to be predetermined by physics or biology, suggesting true freedom is an illusion for all, making cyborgs no different in principle.

Arguments For (or Blurring the Lines):

Advanced Autonomy: Sophisticated AI can learn, adapt, and make decisions within broad parameters, creating the appearance of free will by setting its own short-term goals (e.g., finding an interesting route).
Internal Processes: If a cyborg’s “will” arises from internal mental processes (even complex digital ones) rather than external pushes, it might qualify as self-caused action, a key part of some free will definitions.

Human Analogy: If humans’ free will is debatable due to biological constraints, and cyborgs become complex enough to mimic or surpass human decision-making, the distinction becomes philosophical rather than technological.

The Key Distinction:

The crucial factor is whether the cyborg’s choices originate from its own “self” (consciousness, emergent goals) or from its pre-defined programming and data inputs. Until (or unless) a cyborg achieves genuine consciousness and self-determination beyond its code, its “will” remains a sophisticated simulation of freedom, not true free will.

When it comes to predestination…what is our opinion?

Our concern is to be biblical – to be true to Scripture as far as we understand. To be labeled as Calvinistic or otherwise does not concern us; to be Christ’s disciples does. You do not have to accept our position, as each one of us will give an account of himself to God.
We don’t think it’s ultimately a smart thing to tell God that because He is sovereign that ‘God made me do it’.

[James 1:13 KJV]
Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. [Romans 14:12 KJV]
I believe that God knows all and knows the outcome, but that He prepared Hell for the devil and His angels, but He takes no pleasure in sending anyone to hell.
[Matthew 25:41 KJV]
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
[Matthew 18:14 KJV]
Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.
[2 Peter 3:9 KJV]
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

[Ezekiel 18:25 KJV]
Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel; Is not my way equal? are not your ways unequal?

[Ezekiel 18:26 KJV]
When a righteous [man] turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die.

[Ezekiel 18:27 KJV]
Again, when the wicked [man] turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive.

[Ezekiel 18:28 KJV]
Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his transgressions that he hath committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die.

[Ezekiel 18:29 KJV]
Yet saith the house of Israel, The way of the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel, are not my ways equal? are not your ways unequal?

[Ezekiel 18:30 KJV]
Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn [yourselves] from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.

[Ezekiel 18:31 KJV]
Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
[Ezekiel 18:32 KJV]
For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn [yourselves], and live ye.
