The Ultimate Plan

Do things happen "by random chance" with God merely watching over earth's events...trying to shape and mold all things for His honor and glory...and...for His people's good...



...or...Did God actually pre-plan [predestine] all things in earth's history...from beginning to end...large to small...for His own glory and honor...and...for His people's good..

Many Christians choose the first option...they view God as the cosmic "watcher" and "worker" within earths history...but not...

...the ultimate planner of earth's history...

Where do you stand on this issue...does it really matter what we believe on this subject...does it effect how we view God, ourselves...God's salvation?
