ok, now, read Romans 9. why does it say God choses whoever He feels like, and that He hardens peoples hearts for His glory? Romans 9:17,18 17For the Scripture says to Pharaoh: "I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display my power in you and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth."[g] 18Therefore God has mercy on whom he wants to have mercy, and he hardens whom he wants to harden. does God make people harden there hearts and therefore condemn them to hell? that cant be! God is all about love! I dont think thats very fair if thats what is going on, but I dont believe it is. if that were so, we could do whatever we want right now, because God has already predestined us to where we are going. but, knowing that that cant be true, someone please tell me what Romans 9 means.
