Hello, John and Doves,
Due to the plethora of failed Rapture date
guesses,
someone may ask, "Can God count?"
Let's explore that theme.
It is written,
12"But as
many as received Him, to them He gave the
right to become children of God, even to
those who believe in His name, 13who were born, not of blood
nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of
man, but of God."
John
1:12-13 NASB
About
Jesus, the prophet Isaiah writes,
"When he
sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he
will be satisfied. And because of his experience,
my righteous servant will make it possible for
many to be counted righteous,
for he will bear all their sins."
Isaiah
53:11 NLT
There are many other examples. Yes, God
can count--in the way that matters for you and me.
All sins are forgiven for all those who lean on
[put their whole weight on] Jesus Christ for their
salvation.
In point of fact, God is so comfortable with
big numbers that He confidently uses the word,
"whosoever."
It is written,
"For God so
loved the world, that he gave his only begotten
Son, that whosoever believeth
in him should not perish, but have everlasting
life."
John 3:16
KJV
