Great video, thanks for posting. The title got me.

My stupid questions are only as stupid as the source material that brought the stupid questions to mind.

[canadiandansker]

The answer I thought I would get.

This answer is dependent on a linear model of time. It also is saying that God's omniscience is limited to our actions, that he is incapable of knowing what we may or may not be thinking about praying. The problem with apologetics is that they are full of contingencies which are needed to push the idealogy forward. Like a science experiment which is not yielding the desired results and is being reworked in order that the whole project is not scrapped.

God knows what we are going to pray? Giving us free will, those prayers are even predestined. My God and Lord, beyond my comprehension,

You made a plan to glorify your Name.

It's bad for me, when I shall stray and wander.

But even so, you love me just the same.

Chorus:

Forever great, your wisdom is supreme.

How could you choose, a child like me?

Forever great, your wisdom is supreme.

The Lamb of God, the Lamb of God.

As our parents generation would say, "ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer".

[RealityCheck2525]

 eh?

[canadiandansker]

Is it.... Scripture please.

Is there such a thing as eternity past? Is his awareness in eternity really secured by our free acts of praying prayers in the present? Is this true? If he has known what we are going to pray wouldn't he surely know what choices we are going to make in our prayers? Is God not always aware? Does God really need our prayers in the present to be prayed to make him aware of what they are going to consist of- in eternity? This does not make sense. This is not the God of the Bible.
