What is the EOC's take on these verses and predestination/free will in general? I'm curious about the one from Proverbs in particular as it seems a bit scary.
Proverbs 16:4
The Lord hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.
John 12:40
He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
Romans 9:18
"Therefore God has mercy on whom he wants to have mercy, and he hardens whom he wants to harden."
2 Thessalonians 2:11-12
God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned.
