Such deeds cause rejection in keeping with the laws of nature. Through predestination people are caused to reject sinners. It is for sinners to recognize the consequences of their sins, to repent, to compensate for their sins and thereby to win re-acceptance. If sinners were not punished for their sins they would not learn their lessons. Through the laws of cause and effect sinners learn how not to behave. Righteous people have a responsibility to facilitate the workings of the moral laws of nature so as to help sinners to learn how they should behave to be accepted into the community of the righteous. Sinners know who they are. The righteous know who they are. These are objective facts of life. Each kind of person knows themselves objectively and understands themselves as they really are, how they got to be what they are, and what changes are possible, desirable, and responsible. According to how each decides, their life goes. Some people God has predestined to be sinners in order that the righteous might have examples of the consequences of straying from the path of righteousness. The sinners are God's teaching assistants on behalf of the chosen righteous, predestined to help those who are predestined to salvation. The righteous know that they are called by God to call the sinners to repentance in ways which affirm the self righteousness of the callers. To them the laws of nature as they apply to themselves are objectively clear and beyond doubt. The empirical proof is in how God treats the righteous and how God treats the sinners; with the assistance of the righteous, of course. The righteous are called to prove to themselves that all these things are objectively true and free of bias, beyond question, not to be doubted or challenged. Together they succeed in their mission of telling the truths with reveal that all these things are according to God's Word. They get others to come to see that it is in their best interest to join in this mission to spread the word in convincing ways. Who is in a position to sort out from the above: truth, falsehood, objectivity, subjectivity, reflexivity, bias, etc.? What are the questions which may most charitably be asked? (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
