Paul,

Your letter has caused me to wonder a few of things, now.

Being omniscient, the LORD knew of Abel's death before it happened, the question is whether it's timing was appointed.

When Cain killed Abel, was the timing of Abel's death appointed by the LORD?

If so:

Was Cain's act of murder part of the LORD's plan?

If Cain wouldn't have murdered Abel, then would the LORD have still caused Abel to die that day?

Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

The LORD knew by omniscience when this would happen.

However, did the LORD appoint the timing of death's entrance into the world?

Does the LORD appoint the time of death of each abortion and suicide?

Thank you,

Gino
