I thought "prophecy" stated those who were Christ's were preordained and already called...so why do any of the proselytizing if it is all set in stone?

So the scriptures were WRONG when they stated---

Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. (this would include Obama.)



Which is it? Are governments the domain of the imaginary satan?

Are governments APPROVED by God...

Is ROMANS 13:1 CORRECT or is it just another LIE??

?????

It's not a fault to realize that that you've been taking something for granted, and then decide that you are not going to any longer.

Yes, there are bad belief systems out there, but I didn't take the OP to be referring to that, just complaining that college students with religious backgrounds are meeting real live agnostics/atheist for the first time and listening to what they have to say.

That's a good question. It isn't a question of evils being factored into God's Plan, but it being claimed that world leaders are somehow selected and approved and put in place by God.
