To answer your question, yes God is all knowing and powerful.
And if you doubt that God can see the future then look at the many prophecies that have been fulfilled throught out history.
However this doesn't mean that he will control your own actions.
You control your own destiny and it is only a modern misconception that God has already foretold your life.
He will intervine every now and then, but you're "basically" on your own. There for your thoughts and actions affect you on a daily basis and in many different ways.
God gave Adam certain rules in the garden, he left it up to Adam to do what ever he chose. And the same for Kain.
Furio, you will find all your answers by reading the bible.
If you can believe that Adam condemmed all men by obtaining all knowledge then you can believe that God has made up for this by sacrificing Jesus to cover for our sinful nature.
It's as simple as that, simply accept Jesus as your savior and you are spared. That is if you wish to believe....
God made us in his "image". Keyword, "image".
That doesn't mean he made us God like or gods.
In the early days, our genes were clean of mutation.
People live much shorter lives now days because our genes have been damaged through out the ages.
One example is human intelligence, most people feel that we are much more intelligent than early man.
Well that is a misconception, early man was much more intelligent then we are now. You ask how can that be? Just because we have this technology that they didn't have doesn't mean shit.
All that it means is that we have been advancing, building on top of what others have built in the past.
Think of it as "trial and error", if you know what I mean....
You ask where is God now?
He's everywhere, well at least his Spirit is.
It's all in faith bro.
You have to make a sacrifice in order for him to come into your life or anyone's life. You have to let go of this "my shit don't stink" ego. You have to come at him with faith and desire. You have to truly want it.
Now about this out of control way of life today, we brought it upon ourselves. You can't just expect God to come down and answer your every prayer. you're asking for something simple, control. You can achieve that by yourself.
Once achieving that, you can teach others to do the same.
You can always ask God for help though, he works in mysterios ways. Some times he comes out of no where to help non-believers. People whom never even thought of him. He chooses certain individuals. And if you notice, he always chooses people who will make the biggest impact.
Why touch someone who already believes in him?
You are already saved, so you're not the one in need.
Besides, no one's gonna listen to a priest or a religious fanatic about God coming into their lives.
But when a criminal turns his life completely around, only then does it get attention by other criminals.
Only a born again Christian who's a former prostitute will get the attention of other prostitutes. They ain't gonna listen to a goody two shoes pastor.
Furio think about this bro.
Think hard and you will understand....
Pick up the bible and read the Gospels.
Remember, Jesus's words are in red writing....
Peace,
