“Even when you go to intercede for Saul, I have already rejected you as king of Israel”, 1 Samuel 16 B

* Luis Alberto Alves

Many Christians are used to the verse where the Lord says that "his mercy lasts forever, but they forget that He also said that" he has mercy on whomever He wants to have mercy ".

God is not a fool, someone who can be deceived in order to take advantage and then kneel down and beg forgiveness for mistakes and everything is fine again.

 God is the Lord of time, eternal, does not exist for him yesterday, today or tomorrow. Everything is eternity.

Before your eyes, our life is like a play, where He knows each act, in advance. However, it leaves our free will to lead us on the right path, it is not his desire that we plunge into the abyss.

But success, fame, wealth, material goods, the fascination of the world, slowly, blind people. Many of them, when they reach this stage, classify God as grimace, as being late, out of step with the present day.
