Is it a sin to disagree with God? Election, Moses, relenting
- Is it a sin to disagree with God or not like a doctrine (e.g. election)?
A host raises a ChristianPost.com question: is it a sin to not like the doctrine of election — more broadly, to disagree with God's actions? The hosts conclude you can voice disagreement with the right heart (Moses pleading "don't destroy all the people"; God relenting) as long as you ultimately bow to God's sovereignty, and warn against waiting passively for God to script every decision instead of obeying the general command to go make disciples.
