The moment you think that your destiny is predetermined, you become a miserable loser! Trust your own power so that you can shape your own destiny!

In fact, although I am not aware of it (and I am never aware of it, no matter how many times I have the dream) her suicide is a foregone conclusion. It is this way in dreams: when decisions are being made, they have already been made.

The first verse that comes to mind that refutes all of Calvin’s points is “Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Whoever means whoever. Not just some, not just the elect; that means that anyone who wants to come to God and repent may do so. There is not a certain group that is predestined for hell and they can't do anything about it. How then would God be just? Knowing God’s nature, and that he IS love, I simply cannot believe that and believe it to be a completely false teaching.

I may not be free, but I’m not about to surrender the illusion of choice.

Predetermined fate is the slogan of the incapable people; with better ideas, you can always have a better fate!

God has a plan and a predetermined place on earth and in the Kingdom of God for every one of us.

Trams are not free; their paths are predetermined; they must travel on the pre-designed paths! You are not a tram; your path is not predetermined; you can travel on any path! Fate is nonsense; you are free, you choose your own path with your own mind!

The road ahead is not some predetermined path that I am forced to trod, but it is a rich byway that I can help create.

Tram’s road is predetermined, but not yours! You are not a tram, you can choose your path.
