I don't get it. The decrees of God. Why would He will for His revealed will not to be done. He is not the author of sin but He decrees it, permits it, ordains it, allows it. Prayers for reconcilation were answered with a no. The adultery that my wife committed was sin, the divorce that she filed was sin, did not have the biblical grounds for such action against me. The cohabitation and fornication that followed is sin. The remarriage is a sinful union, the iniquity that is passed down to my six year old is sin. The severance of my relationship to my son is sinful and damaging. The states divorce laws are unbiblical and undermine God's institution of marriage, the state trampples upon it which is sin. All of this evil was allowed and permitted by Him. It was and is His Sovergn will, His revealed will was not done, but His will was done, because He is in complete control of everything that happens and that will ever happen. The Lord's foreknowledge saw me getting married taking my vows 5 years ago and at that same time also saw the adultery, divorce ect... Why?????? Why not say yes to your on revealed will?????Why allow my son to experience this great evil?????Why allow Satan to destroy my family????????? For after all you have complete contol of Satan!!! Who is tempting my wife to commit adultery satan is and who is in control of satan? The Lord is!!! Why allow us to get married and have a son to then just destroy it by the hidden counsel of your will?????
